Answer 2

ABBA's primary drummer was Ola Brunkert, who played on every Abba album and tour from 1972 to 1982. He can be seen on stage for Abba's famous Eurovision win in 1974, and features prominently in one of their last major public appearances, a studio concert with American talk-show host Dick Cavett, in 1981.

Abba also worked with other drummers, notably Roger Palm, who appears on some of the band's biggest singles, including Dancing Queen, and Per Lindvall, who played with the band in the 80s. (He also performed on the soundtrack of the Mamma Mia! film along with three other original Abba musicians, Lesse Wellander on guitar, Rutger Gunnarsson on bass and, of course, Benny Andersson on keyboard.) During Abba's major concert tours both Brunkert and Palm performed together.

Ola Brunkert died in a tragic accident at his home in Spain on March 16, 2008.
