Over fifty percent of all newly created small businesses have gone belly up within five years, and most of those that survive are just barely doing so. They limp along, year after year, making just enough of a margin to stay in business but never managing to generate enough capital for the improvements, upgrades, or expansions that would allow them to move to the next level. But there are new small businesses that seem to be super-charged why?

THE JAYHAWKS’ SELF-TITLED 1986 DEBUT (AKA THE BUNKHOUSE ALBUM)
TO BE RELEASED ON CDFOR THE FIRST TIME ON MAY 18 BY LOST HIGHWAY
ONLY 2000 VINYL ALBUMS PRODUCED IN ORIGINAL PRESSING
For the first time on CD, the self-titled debut album from the highly-acclaimed, alt-country pioneers The Jayhawks will be released on
May 18 by Lost Highway. The Jayhawks (also referred to by fans as The Bunkhouse record) was
originally released in 1986 on Bunkhouse Records, with a pressing of only 2000 vinyl copies. Fans not fortunate
enough to own a copy of The Jayhawks will be happy to know that it will finally be available on CD, and again on
vinyl for the first time in 24 years.
The Jayhawks reissue will include an eight-page booklet with new photos from recording period and a new essay by
Jayhawks founder Mark Olson about album producer and then band manager Charlie Pine. The
tracks are the original thirteen songs that appeared on the album, including “Falling Star,” which recently resurfaced
on The Jayhawks Anthology (Legacy Recordings) in 2009.
The 1986 incarnation of The Jayhawks featured Mark Olson (guitar/vocals), Gary Louris (lead guitar/vocals), Marc Perlman (bass) and Norm Rogers (drums). After listening to The Jayhawks, it is clear why the band became a catalyst in the evolution of what would eventually be coined alt-country. The
album has more in common with Gram Parsons and The Flying Burrito Brothers than it does with later Jayhawks
classics Tomorrow The Green Grass and Hollywood Town Hall. It’s quite evident where those milestone albums grew out of.
