The "Greatest Hits" photo sessions
|
How to get there |
It's still unknown where exactly the cover picture for the "Greatest Hits" album (the European & US versions) was taken but the investigation is in process. Anyway, some well-known shots were taken on the same day outside the restaurant "Ulla Winblad" on Djurgården in Stockholm (see even related place no 32). The restaurant area has been changed during the years but the building is still the same.

This part of these photo sessions was taken outside "Sjöhistoriska Museet" (The National Maritime Museum) situated not far away from Kaknästornet. The "right" canon is still there but it has been moved some meters during those 28 years that has gone since the session was taken.
