Super Deluxe 6LP Box Set Featuring Rare Demos, Remixes & Alternate Mixes!

Paste Magazine The 20 Best Box Sets of 2023 - Rated 17/20!

This new, previously unreleased 6LP super deluxe box set features a-ha's classic debut album, Hunting High and Low. The expanded track selection includes demos, extended versions, alternate mixes and B-sides, including the hit singles "Take On Me," "Hunting High and Low," and "The Sun Always Shines on TV."

The set is housed in a highly collectible rigid slipcase box, containing the album represented across 60 tracks and a 64-page 12"x12" booklet with extensive liner notes and photography.

Basically a vinyl edition of the 2015 multi-disc reissue of Hunting High and Low, the six-LP set contextualizes the story of the group's debut with early demo versions that go back as far as 1982, remixes and the original single release of 'Take On Me' when the song was far more raw and awkward in its execution than the slick recording we know and love. What isn't included is the DVD from that original CD release that included their award-winning clip. The song and the album doesn't need it. This music stands very well on its own as it is easier to track how frontman Morten Harket found the power in his voice and how his bandmates developed a pop sound that has the crispness and chilly undercurrent of a beautiful fall morning.
