With Swedish Singing Superstar Agnetha Faltskog

Swedish singing legend and former ABBA member Agnetha Faltskog picks the Tracks of My Years, with music from Cilla Black and Paul Anka. Plus, PopMaster.

All this week Swedish superstar Agnetha Faltskog chooses the Tracks Of My Years. Her first selections feature a 1964 British chart topper from Cilla Black which also reached the top 10 in Sweden and a fifties hit from teen idol Paul Anka. There's the Record and Album Of The Week and listeners can test their music knowledge by playing along to PopMaster. Best known for sharing the main singing duties with Anni-Frid in the global supergroup ABBA, earlier this year Agnetha released her first solo album in nearly a decade. Simply titled 'A' the album not only references Agnetha's name, but it's also a passing nod to her time in ABBA. Spearheaded by Grammy nominated producer and songwriter Jorgen Elofsson it also features the talents of producer and arranger Peter Nordahl. The second single from the album - Dance Your Pain Away, is released later this month.
