Album of the Day

a-ha rocketed to stardom in dramatic fashion in 1985 when the group’s debut single, “Take On Me,” topped the charts in 36 different countries on its way to becoming one of the best-selling hits of all time. The following year, a-ha was nominated for Best New Artist, becoming the first Norwegian band to be nominated for a Grammy. The group's outstanding debut gets beefed-up to four CDs this month with Rhino's HUNTING HIGH AND LOW EXPANDED EDITION. Its first disc features a remastered version of the original album, which has sold more than 10 million copies since its release. The second disc is packed with more than two dozen rare demos, the third features remixes and single versions from the period, and the final disc presents an alternate version of HUNTING HIGH AND LOW using early and alternate mixes for every album track, including the version of “Take On Me” that was used for the iconic music video.
