Trouble "Run To The Light (USA, Enigma Records, CDE-73269)"

Run to the Light is the third studio album by American doom metal band Trouble, released by Metal Blade Records on July 15, 1987, being the band's last release on that label. It was the band's first album to have Ron Holzner on bass guitar and the only Trouble album with Dennis Lesh on drums. Jeff Olson, who left the band in 1986, played the Hammond organ on the song "The Beginning". Ted Kirkpatrick, who later formed the Christian metal band Tourniquet in 1990, played drums during Trouble's tour for the album. A music video was made for the title track.

A remaster, Run to the Light: Expanded Edition, was released on CD, vinyl, and digitally on June 16, 2023. The CD and digital versions of the Expanded Edition include a cover of The Beatles' 1969 single "Come Together", which was originally released on the compilation The Best of Metal Blade Volume 3 in 1988, and three demo songs recorded in 1986.
