Texas Artist Snapshot:

They never broke big in the States, but Glasgow, Scotland's Texas were one of the most popular band's in the U.K. and Europe during the 1990s. Though firmly rooted in the Britpop tradition, Texas maintained a distinct sound that nodded to everything from soul and R&B to hip-hop and shimmering slide-guitar country. The group continued to score hits in the U.K. well into the 2000s, and even collaborated with the Wu-Tang Clan's Method Man on the remix for "Say What You Want.".

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'.
