A-HA - Hunting High And Low: 25th Anniversary Deluxe Edition (2CD) (Remastered 2010) - 23 July 2010

Quote

" This 25th anniversary album contains the first album by the Norwegian trio of singer Morten Harket, songwriter Pal Waaktaar and keyboardist Mags along with a second, bonus CD with 23 demo tracks of songs from the album and other songs.

Hunting High and Low will forever be known as the album that contains the intoxicating "Take On Me", one of the most famous and enduring "one-hit wonders" of the '80s. It also contains a second US Top 40 hit, "The Sun Always Shines On TV". In addition, even after those songs ceased to receive airplay, A-Ha continued a long and successful career in Europe and elsewhere.

Besides the two singles, the first CD contains the haunting title track, "Living A Boy's Adventure Tale", which comes across as a keyboard-heavy Scandinavian version of early U2, and the quirky "The Blue Sky", an arresting showcase for Harket's piercing falsetto. Hunting High and Low shows that there's much more to A-Ha than their memory in common pop history suggests.
