One Sided Story is the second album by Canadian power pop band The Pursuit of Happiness, released in 1990. It was recorded over a two-and-a-half week span in November 1989.
After having been on the road nearly non-stop following Love Junk's success, band leader Moe Berg wrote all of the material for One Sided Story in just four months, completing the last songs just hours before the band started recording for the album.[1]
Just after finishing recording the album, original bass player Johnny Sinclair and backup singer Leslie Stanwyck left the band in order to pursue their own project (which would eventually become Universal Honey). After approximately three weeks of auditions, Sinclair and Stanwyck were replaced by Brad Barker on bass and Susan Murumets on backing vocals.[1] Muruments stuck around only for the tour to support the album, leaving to concentrate on her own musical career, whereas Barker has remained with the band ever since.
