Description
DESCRIPTION
Two CDs. Digitally remastered and expanded edition. Disc two amounts to an entirely new take on the album. Early versions of the title track "Minor Earth Major Sky," "Velvet," "Summer Moved On" and the enormous powerful version of "The Sun Never Shone That Day" as well as other takes that did not make it on the final cut reveal the sparkles of songwriting and the process of an idea becoming a hit. Four live-performances in Oslo taken from their 2001 tour prove the grandeur of an a-ha live performance. On it's release Minor Earth Major Sky was an instant #1, platinum awarded success in Norway and in Germany. Gold discs came in Austria, Spain and Switzerland. The title track and "Velvet" followed "Summer Moved On" as singles, the latter hitting #1 in Norway and Top 10 in Germany.
