Description:
Look Sharp! is Roxette's second album and it was recorded at EMI Studios in Stockholm between March and August 1988 and also at Trident II Studios in London in June 1988.
This was Roxette's breakthrough album and it includes songs like The Look, Dressed For Success, Dangerous and Listen To Your Heart which were all released as singles and became huge hits around the world.
The album includes 13 songs but on the LP and cassette the song (I Could Never) Give You Up was left out and in some countries the date on the cover was changed.
In Germany the album was released in a limited edition as a picture LP and picture CD and these were the first picture discs that were ever released by Roxette.
The name Look Sharp! was first used by Joe Jackson on his album from 1979 but Per Gessle thought it was a cool title and decided that Roxette should use the same title for their album.
Produced by Clarence Öfwerman and Adam Mosley (track 6, 7 and 10).
