Yes, ABBA rocks. Their melodies were amazing. I'd love to hear more rockin' versions of their stuff. Knowing Me, Knowing You, The Name of the Game, and SOS were absolute killers. Fleetwood Mac, Abba, and even the Bay City Rollers were probably what guided me into melodic rock in my formative childhood years.

After that came Journey, REO Speedwagon, Cheap Trick, and groups like that. Then with groups like Def Leppard, Survivor, Dokken, and many others, melodic rock reached it's highest peak. Here's hoping that a renaissance is in store for this decade!!
