I've got my hands on a cd by either a band called The Black Gold, or the title of the cd's called The Balck Gold.
It's a album of Abba songs covered by this band, but with a twist!
The opening track begins with the opening riff to Smoke On The Water, but played slightly differently, which then morphs into Mama Mia.
One of the tracks starts with the opening riff to Enter Sandman, again, played slightly differently, which then morphs into Take A Chance.
It's all played in a "Hair Rock" style. My brother says it sounds like Wig Wam, that kinda style.
Any ideas???

Def not Wig Wam
Black Gold were/are a bunch of Swedish Muso's..... more connected to the Poodles me thinks

They make Abba music sound almost good. I reckon most of the girlies are secret Abba fans so they would love this stuff. I reckon at the next family party I go to I should take over the djing and play a few of them.

Good idea mate. How could anyone not like this stuff. I think deep down we're all closet Abba fans, but to hear some of their best tracks beefed up with some great riffs , they just sound awesome.

Actually other great ABBA covers, I suggest THERION - Summer Nights City, and AT VANCE - Winner Takes It All, in fact AT VANCE in their time must have covered nearly every ABBA track, (ok, 3 or 4!)
By the way BLACK SWEDEN appeared at WACKEN in Germany in 2000.
