ABBA Gold: Greatest Hits is a compilation album by the Swedish pop group ABBA. It was released on 21 September 1992 through PolyGram and released in 2008 through Universal Music Australia, making it the first compilation to be released after the company had acquired Polar Music, and thus the rights to the ABBA back catalogue. With sales of 30 million, Gold is the best-selling ABBA album, as well as one of the best-selling albums worldwide.

The packaging is very handsome, and the sleeves have background info and lots of great pictures. The gold colored vinyl is absolutely GORGEOUS! The sound is so far superior to the CD, it's like a whole new experience. It's smoother, more spacious, natural, and detailed yet still retains the pop, processed sound. The music of Abba is legendary. This collection includes most of the important hits. The vinyl version has little surface noise and is plays well. However, compared to the original albums (I have the 'Visitor' and 'Supertrouper' albums), this remastered version lacks punch and is subdued.

ABBA's 19-song Gold collection was the first hits compilation prepared specifically for the CD format by the 1970s supergroup, and, appearing after a period of several years in which their music had been off the market, was a welcome addition to the catalog.

The Winner Takes It All encapsulates the prevailing melancholy and lyrical richness by laying out the wreckage of separation with tear-jerking detail and, inevitably, a monster chorus.
