VAKENATT\", the second album by the Norwegian psychedelic rock group \"bridges\", whose members Paul Waaktaar-Savoy (g) and Magne Furuholmen (key) were in the band before A-HA, is now available on CD for the first time after a long absence! Before A-HA, Paul Waaktaar-Savoy (g) and Magne Furuholmen (key) were members of a Norwegian psychedelic rock group called \"A-HA\". The name of the band was brigdes, and the group was active mainly in Norway between 1978 and 1981. Although the group was active for only three short years, brigdes released two albums during that time: the first, FAKKELTOG, was released in 1980, and the second, VAKENATT, followed it. The latter is considered by core fans as a \"phantom work\" that was only released on green analog in 2018 in a limited edition of a few hundred copies. The \"second album\" will finally be released on CD for the first time as an official recording.Not many A-HA fans know about the bridges, but Paul Waaktaar-Savoy (g) and Magne Furuholmen (key) formed the band with Viggo Bondi (b) and Erik Hagelien (dr) in Oslo while still students. The band was formed by Viggo Bondi (B) and Erik Hagelien (Dr) in Oslo when they were students, and played frequent shows between 1978 and 1979. (The Bridges released their first album in 1980, and in 1981, they decided to expand their musical career in London. In 1981, Paul and Magne decided to expand their musical career in London, but the other members did not agree, and the band disbanded. As a result, their second album, \"VAKENATT,\" did not see the light of day for a long time. The three members later began to gather worldwide success as A-HA, and with it, their first album, \"FAKKELTOG,\" became a collector's item among their devoted fans. However, \"VAKENATT,\" which had been kept in storage, was only rumored to be a \"phantom work\" even among fans.However, in April 2016, former members of the bridges, Viggo Bondi and Erik Hagelien, appeared at an A-HA fan convention in Oslo to discuss the recording process of the bridges' first album, in response to a request from an avid A-HA fan. They also talked about the second album, which was not released yet. This confirmed the existence of \"VAKENATT,\" and lucky fans in attendance were even able to hear snippets of songs from the album played by Viggo on his cell phone! The fan convention helped convince Paul's sisters, who were also there, that the second Bridges album would be officially released. The missing link between the Bridges and A-HA, \"VAKENATT\" is the album that A-HA fans have been waiting for. The album that A-HA fans have been waiting for will finally be released!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Fakkeltog\u003cbr\u003e2.The Leap\u003cbr\u003e3.Soft Rains of April\u003cbr\u003e4.Waterworks\u003cbr\u003e5.All the Planes that Come in on the Quiet\u003cbr\u003e6.Asleep\u003cbr\u003e7.Superior\u003cbr\u003e8.Faceless City\u003cbr\u003e9.Need No Doctor\u003cbr\u003e10.Wildfire\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WM UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47526788038945,"sku":"190295179922","price":157.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/190295179922.jpg?v=1700927119","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-se\/products\/190295179922","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
