Sordid Humor was founded in 1987 by Tom Barnes (vocals, guitar) and Jim Gordon (bass). The duo received help from Adam Duritz (Counting
Crows), drummers Chris Pedersen and Toby Hawkins, and bassists David Immergluck and Marty Jones. Evolving into a textured rock with
layers of guitars and vocals, the band released several independent records before folding in 1992. Capricorn released a posthumous album in
1994 entitled Light Music for Dying People. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
