News rushes of a press call shot on 16mm film of ABBA meeting American rock star Alice Cooper who was performing concerts in Perth on 14 & 15 March 1977. Alice Cooper arrived in Sydney on 7 March 1977 on his way to Perth to begin his Australian tour - see The Canberra Times - 7 March 1977, p.3.

You'll recognise the occasional person and footage from ABBA - The Movie - for example, when posing for a group photo, this part is in ABBA - The Movie with the photographer saying, "Up in the back, a little action" in the scene in the middle of Get On The Carousel.

This behind-the-scenes footage has not been broadcast officially. It's found it's way into the fan network somehow. Most unused footage is usually junked and the only footage to be filed is that included in the story that finally airs. Even stuff of this vintage has a high chance of not surviving. Thanks to the huge hype surrounding ABBA's visit, all material was probably archived for stock usage.

Not sure it really belongs on this site but for completeness I have included here as you're probably like me and want everything piece of film where any of ABBA actually moved!

1. Actor Robin Nedwell from the British comedy Doctor In The House bizarrely posing for a group photograph with them ( he was apparently touring Australia at that time in a play).
2. Benny's son Peter Grönvall walking in front of Björn.
3. Frida putting Chapstick on her lips!
