It is with great pride that we present this remastered reissue of our second long play album 54•40 , affectionately referred to by our beloved fans, as the “Green” album. After recording our first album Set The Fire, we went through a period of discovery. The songwriting was starting to flow and our band vision was becoming more clear. It started with the last couple of songs written for Set The Fire recorded by Dave ‘Rave’ Ogilvie. Those songs “A Big Idea” and “What To Do Now” would lead to defining ourselves as 54•40 - the rock combo (2 guitars, bass and drums). We went back to Mushroom Studios with Rave and recorded the “Green’ album in late 1984. Baby Ran , I Go Blind , Take My Hand and other songs all emerged during this time. Signing to a record company wasn’t exactly on our radar in 1984 but we were actively promoting and touring north -south as far as Highway I-5 would take us. Seattle, Portland and in particular San Francisco became a second home for the band.
