Goodbye Jumbo is the second studio album by British alternative rock band World Party. Originally released on 24 April 1990 on Ensign Records, the album was aided by a number of guest artists, including Sinéad O'Connor and frontman Karl Wallinger's former bandmates in The Waterboys. Its traditional rock sound – guitar, bass and drums – was augmented by piano, strings, flute and electronic percussion. The songs on Goodbye Jumbo follow the loose concept of an everyman's journey from lonely despair to spiritual fulfillment.
