Universal Music Japan are celebrating ABBA‘s 40th Anniversary in their own way with the release of a unique compilation 40/40 The Best Selection.

As previously announced in Europe we are getting a new three-CD version of ABBA Gold which adds More ABBA Gold and a disc of B-sides to the classic 19-track compilation. Japan are arguably doing something more interesting since 40/40 The Best Selection has a track listing that was based on votes from over 9,000 Japanese fans.

Perhaps not unexpectedly Dancing Queen came top and while it’s still a very mainstream selection (see track listing below) the 40-track two-CD collection does at least include Slipping Through My Fingers which there was no place for across the three discs of the new ABBA Gold. The Japanese compilation has an attractive cover design is a SHM-CD (compatible with all CD players) and comes packaged in a jewel case.

ABBA 40/40 – The Best Selection is out now.
