The Tragically Hip's debut EP was released only in the Kingston, Ontario area in late 1987 and then eventually Canada wide in January 1988. After doing a cross country tour to support the release of the EP, the band was signed a long term contract with MCA Records in December 1988.
A live version of "Highway Girl" was released in 1991 as a B-side to "Twist My Arm", in which Gord Downie tells the story of a suicide pact between a man and his girlfriend. It was a hit on Canadian radio, allowing the song to chart considerably higher than in it's original form.
