Stage Dolls Plus Bonus Tracks
The Norwegian combo have thus produced a must-have album of the genre. At once delicate and unstoppable, dynamic and melodic, and with a strong personality while respecting most of the codes of the style, âStage Dollsâ is an album that has established itself in the firmament of AOR / Hard FM.
Torstein and Terje formed Stage Dolls in 1983 in their hometown of Trondheim, with original drummer Erlend Antonsen. Writing and singing their songs in English, Stage Dolls quickly built a reputation as a potent live act. The three musicians soon met up with leading Norwegian producer Bjorn Nessjoe, who took immediate notice of the young comboâs writing and performing abilities. With Nessjoe, Stage Dolls recorded a set of master-quality demos which in 1985 became the bandâs first LP, Soldierâs Gun. That album was released in Norway by Polydor, making Stage Dolls the first rock act from that country to score a major-label deal.
Soldierâs Gun sold extremely well in the bandâs homeland, setting the stage for the semaphore effort Commandos, which introduced new drummer Steinar Krokstad.
For their new albumârecorded in Tronheim, with additional overdubs done in New York Cityâthe band and producer Nessjoe handpicked nine songs from more than 50 recent compositions.
