ABBA / Queen – Abbacadabra Mix / Queen Bee Mix (UK 12″)

Burning The Ground Exclusive 1990

I also created a custom outer sleeve for the record.

You caught me off guard with this one Paul!!! What a tremendous surprise this one is and quite timely too with the whole ABBA thing happening before us. You do have the best stuff in your collection! I almost thought you weren’t going to post because I didn’t get the announcement until very late, but knowing these bootlegs, you may have been challenged because of the quality of the pressing.

This is a very interesting mix to add to the collection. Thanks, Paul.

I am not going try for Abba tickets; I need both kidneys right now:)
