In an interview with The Huffington Post, the 68-year-old was asked to reveal something about himself that would completely surprise readers, to which he responded, &#8220;One of my favorite bands is ABBA&#8221;.<br \/>The bassist also spoke of his youth and the artists who first inspired his passion for rock &#8216;n&#8217; roll.   <!--more-->  &#8220;I heard Little Richard and Elvis and that was it, you know?
