Limited double vinyl LP pressing housed in a deluxe Stoughton gatefold tip-on jacket. Includes download card for full album. Digitally remastered 30th anniversary edition of this rare 1984 album from the duo. After two frustrating years of trying and failing to catch a break in a music industry that was focused on new wave, pop, AORanything but the folk-rock the duo were offeringthe pair conceded defeat. One of them suggested, half joking, that they should put all their darkest and least viable works together on one record, if only to spite the industry that had rejected them. The more they thought about it, the better an idea it seemed, and when they started to plot out a tracklist from their vast catalog of songs, something unique and special begun taking shape. Home-recorded on a four-track, Songs From Suicide Bridge was released on the pairs own Donkey Soul Music in 1984. If this were a movie, the album would have been a huge success. Instead, the 500 copies pressed found their way to few willing ears. Though real life encroached, Caboor and Kaufmann continued to work together, releasing albums as The Drovers in 1989 and 1992. Now, their debut is to be released by Light In The Attic Records with brand new liner notes by Sam Sweet. Hopefully, it will finally find it's audiencea listener who can see hope in the darkness. People would tell us those songs were depressing, Caboor says in his interview with Sweet, but it wasnt depressing to us. In a lot of cases, playing those songs in that little room was one of the only things that made us feel better..
