a-ha, Hunting High and Low, 1985 on Warner Bros.

Debut album from Norway’s a-ha, fronted by Morten Harket, with Magne Furuholmen and Pål Waaktaar-Savoy.

“Take On Me” with its animated video is the song everyone knows, but there’s a lot of great songs in the record (and their other records!). Definitely more than a one-hit wonder.

My copy—via A1 Records in NYC—is a 1985 pressing by Speciality for the RCA Music Service, as per the additional “R 114779” catalogue number on the labels and the additional “Mfd. By RCA Music Service under License” on the back.

  1. @john thoughts and prayers to the great Morton Harket. He got diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease.
    All of the dudes from A-Ha are great dudes, but Morten is the man.
