This is the only release from Wellington band The Wedge. It was produced by legendary New Zealand producer and musician Alan Galbraith. Who had played in Sounds Unlimited and would go on to become H.M.V./EMI's in-house producer. This was his first credit as a producer. So Long Marianne was a cover of a Leonard Cohen song. Twenty years later it was covered by Dunedin Band Straitjacket Fits for their album Hale.
