This Is the Story is the debut studio album from Scottish rock duo The Proclaimers, released in 1987. It was originally released with 12 tracks but after the success of the Gerry Rafferty-produced full band version of "Letter from America", which reached number 3 in the UK Single Chart, it was re-pressed later that year with that track added.
Featuring a stripped-back musical arrangement, the instrumentation on This Is The Story consisted exclusively of hand percussion, acoustic guitar and vocals.[2] The album featured many political themes, something that would characterise much of the duo's later work; the lyrics on This Is The Story concerned issues including the 18th and 19th century Highland Clearances to industrial decline and regional divisions in late 20th century Britain under Margaret Thatcher.[4]
The album was re-issued in 2001. A remastered edition was released in 2011.
