ABBA’s Take a chance on me on 7-Inch, released in 1979 on Epic in the UK, comes in a gatefold sleeve. It pairs a studio track with a live recording captured at Wembley.

Why we rate it

Issued by Epic in 1979, this gatefold 7-Inch features “I Have A Dream” on side A, taken from the LP ‘Voulez-Vous’ (S EPC 86086), with “Take A Chance On Me” recorded live at Wembley on side B. The labels note “Eng. by Michael B. Tretow” on both sides, and this variant shows no * in the label matrix. Credits also reference Polar Music International AB (℗ 1979) and Polar Music AB for the original sound recording, with CBS Records listed as the exclusive UK licensees and Bocu Music Ltd. as publisher.
