Mama help me - Edie Brickell and New Bohemians

Edie Brickell & New Bohemians released their 'difficult second album' in 1990. 'Ghost of a dog' was less accessible than their debut album 'Shooting rubberbands at the stars' (1988) and, as a result, failed to capture the imagination of the listening audiences worldwide.

The single 'Mama help me' was released around the same time as the album but was greeted with the same muted response. The band fell apart soon after, causing Edie Brickell to launch a solo career.

My collection: 7" single no. 5033
Found: Kringloop Juttersdok, Amsterdam, January 29, 2011
Cost: 0,25 euro
