When you think of Rock/Pop bands from Norway; do groups such as A-Ha and TNT come to mind? while both fantastic examples the group Moneytalks should definitely come to mind! Formed by two brothers Sverre and Harold Wiik in the early 1980's the band moved to Los Angeles in 1986 in search of landing a record deal and eventually found their way with MCA/Sonet/Curb records in 1988. Rounded out on keyboards with co-producer Kim Bullard (Jimi Jamison, Frankie and The Knockouts, Robert Tepper, Stan Bush, Latoya Jackson and Trixter) and Donnie Nossov on Bass (John Waite, Pat Banatar and Lita Ford) the band had some smart successful minded people working with the brothers to help them reach success! Well known bass player Stu Hamm also has a Bass credit on their album on the 12 inch remix of the song "Brave Young Boy" which was developed with a different sound in mind. Released in 1990 with the song "Brave Young Boy" sold as their lead single and music video the band went on a promotional tour in Australia and sold very well in Norway peaking at number 1 in the music charts over there. Songs such as "In A Trance" and "Tiny Little Heart Attack" found their way in TV/Film appearing on Karate Kid Part 3 and Career Opportunities directed by famous director John Hughes. This is a fantastic release with its own unique rock and electronic edged sound that undeniably needs a place in your music collection. Highly recommended release in the vein of Platinum Blonde, U2, Icehouse, Noiseworks and Psuedo Echo.
