Album Notes
Texas: Sharleen Spiteri (vocals, guitar, programming); Ally McErlaine (guitar, programming); Eddie Campbell (keyboards, programming); Johnny McElhone (bass, programming); Richard Hynd (drums, programming).Additional personnel: Roger Ward (guitar); Claire Miles, Anne Stephenson, Sally Herbert, Claire Orsler, Susan Dench, Gini Ball, Chris Pitsillide (strings); Alex Silva, Terry Disley (keyboards, programming); Paul Taylor (programming); Steven Granville (background vocals).Producers: Texas, Mike Hedges, Dave Stewart, Rae, Christian.Engineers include: Texas, Kenny Macdonald, Ian Grimble.Texas were generally felt to have peaked with their debut album; Rick's Road continued a downward sales spiral, even though it contained some strong material. This album was a pleasant surprise, picking up awards everywhere and still selling in large quantities. For a band who might have been looking over their shoulders, this is a supremely confident album, full of good songs written by the band and, in particular, by Sharleen Spiteri and ex-Altered Image John McElhone. Respectable rock for the 90s, from the full production of tracks such as 'Halo' to the chiming tension created by 'Put Your Arms Around Me'.
