Road Apples

Road Apples is the second album by Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip.

Released in 1991, the original title of the record was Saskadelphia, but the record label considered it "too Canadian." As a joke, they re-titled it Road Apples, slang for horse dung. After the album was released, they created the Another Roadside Attraction festival - this name was another joke referring to "road apples." The album was recorded in New Orleans, and although most of the songs were finished by the time they arrived, Little Bones was inspired by a local taxi driver.

All songs were written and performed by The Tragically Hip.
