Before The Reds, Pinks &amp; Purples started getting noticed by a larger audience, the - <i>I Should Have Helped You</i> 4 song EP - snuck out on Swedish experimental label I Dischi Del Barone and quickly disappeared, becoming a little-heard but often whispered about piece of the RPPs discography.

Recorded around the same time as the material that ended up on the buzzed- about LP <i>Uncommon Weather</i>, it contains some of the best examples of Glenn Donaldson's melancholy but wry take on indie pop. Needless to say, it's terrific. The original 7" is now a white whale for collectors, trading for silly prices on Discogs when it shows up at all. 

This music *needs* to be heard, so we've put together this limited reissue that adds six more tracks to make it a mini-LP length grab bag of hits. It has songs about record shopping, religion, worker's rights, dysfunctional holidays, and of course heartbreak sung over a maze of shimmering fuzzy guitars and drum machine beats -- essential chapter of the Reds, Pinks &amp; Purples story.
