Roger Palm worked as a studio musician and, among other things, as a drummer in Abba. Palm also worked with Ted Gärdestad and played Palm in the bands Gimmicks and Beatmakers. “He was a warm and humble fellow who always stood up for friends and family. He will be greatly missed and he leaves a huge void behind him. We will all remember him with warm hearts,” the family wrote in a statement. Schaffer’s tribute: “Your drums sound unforgettable” Janne Schaffer, who also worked as a studio musician during the same period, writes in a post on Facebook about the friend and colleague. “I miss you, Roger, with your happy shouts in the studio when we created music with, among others, Ted Gärdestad. You gave Ted’s ‘Satellit’ a fantastic swinging accompaniment and on classics like Abbas’ ‘Mamma Mia’ and ‘Dancing Queen’ your drums sound unforgettable. I will always remember you.”
