With The Visitors, ABBA took several steps away from the lighter pop music they had recorded previously and the album is often regarded as a more complex and mature effort. With Benny and Frida going their separate ways, the pain of splitting up was explored yet again in When All Is Said And Done. The major hit single on the album, One Of Us also depicted the end of a love story .

ABBA - The Visitors (Prototype 1) The first version can be identified from its data side, which features no matrix number etched on the inner hub and strange grooves throughout the disc unlike any subsequent CDs. It is highly unlikely to have been playable. ABBA - The Visitors (Prototype 2) The second version may have been playable but it is doubtful whether it played The Visitors. While the third version was essentially the finished product, it wasn’t the one that made it into the shops in October 198. BBA - The Visitors (Commercial Release).
