Showing the Discogs bio

If you are making an addition where he is credited together with Benny Andersson please credit as Björn Ulvaeus & Benny Andersson (unless they are credited together with someone else, in which case separate credits should be used).
Swedish musician (guitarist), one of the two main songwriters and producers in ABBA, (credited as Björn Ulvæus), born April 25, 1945, Gothenburg.
He and Benny Andersson were house producers for Polar (1971-1974). Co-founder of Union Songs AB. From April 1975, shareholder of Polar Music AB (initially 25% and subsequently 12,5%). By the end of 1984 he sold his shares in the record company.
On 6 July 1971, Ulvaeus married Agnetha Fältskog; the marriage resulted in two children: Linda Ulvaeus (born 23 February 1973), and Peter Christian Ulvaeus (opens in a new tab) (born 4 December 1977). The couple decided to separate in late 1978, and their divorce was finalized in July 1980.
