A-Ha "Hunting High and Low" (1985)
You could be forgiven for thinking that this Norwegian pop group found
fame solely based on one hit, a pretty singer, and high rotation of a
music video using the aforementioned hit and singer.
This album though is so much more than just "Take on me" and Morten
Harket's beautiful, beautiful face. Gorgeous new-romantic synth pop
sounds abound. There are some sections that almost border on
orchestral/operatic, while in others it's simple, upbeat power pop.
A
strong album, with only one or two slightly more 'filler-esque' tracks.
