Page "Benny Andersson" Paragraph 10

After ABBA broke up in 1983, Andersson continued writing music with Ulvaeus.

Their first project was the stage musical Chess, written with Tim Rice.

The Chess concept album-with vocals by Elaine Paige, Barbara Dickson, Murray Head and Swedes Tommy Körberg and Björn Skifs-was released in October 1984, selling two million copies worldwide.

The Paige / Dickson duet " I Know Him So Well " became a major UK # 1 hit, and Murray Head's " One Night in Bangkok " gave Andersson / Ulvaeus a US # 3 hit.
