Шаблон:Infobox album Bang! is an album by the Canadian musician Corey Hart, released in 1990. It was his last album to chart in the U.S., reaching No. 134, and generated one hit single, "A Little Love", which reached No. 37. Hart supported the album with a North American tour.

Production

The album was recorded in California. The track "Ballade for Nien Cheng" was inspired by Cheng's memoir Life and Death in Shanghai. "Chase the Sun" is a re-recorded version of a track from Hart's previous album, Young Man Running. Kenny Aronoff played drums.

Critical reception

Шаблон:Album reviews The Toronto Star wrote that Hart's voice "is a martyr's bleat that strains for soulfulness but ends up suggesting something closer to discomfort." The Orlando Sentinel noted Hart's "continuing bid to prove Canadian MOR can be just as middle-of-the-road as American MOR."
