Voulez-Vous is the sixth studio album by the Swedish supergroup ABBA. Released on April 23, 1979, the album yielded five hits, all of them big 1979 singles in Britain – “Chiquitita”, “Does Your Mother Know”, “I Have a Dream” and the double A-side “Voulez-Vous”/”Angeleyes”. The title track showed the group embracing disco music, which at the time was at its peak. The album topped the charts in a number of countries and ranked among Britain’s five best-selling albums of the year.
It was the first ABBA album to be mainly recorded at Polar Studios in Stockholm, and the only ABBA album to include a studio recording made outside Sweden: the instrumental backing track for the title track was partly recorded at Criteria Studios in Miami.
Voulez-Vous was first released on CD in 1984. The album has been digitally remastered and reissued four times; first in 1997, then in 2001 and in 2005 as part of The Complete Studio Recordings box set, and yet again in 2010 for the Voulez-Vous Deluxe Edition.
