Details: Amazon.ca This modest, hesitant and unassuming debut album offered little hint of what was to come a decade or so on. At this stage, Texas were a world away from the clinical polish and base-covering genre-hopping of White On Blonde, and seemed happy enough, and still somewhat surprised, that they were being allowed to make music for a living. The original Texas line-up was a smart blend of veterans and ingenues: bass player Johnny McElhone and drummer Stuart Kerr had performed, between them, in Altered Images, Hipsway and Love & Money; Ry Cooder-obsessed guitarist Ally McErlaine and singer Sharleen Spiteri were new to it all. Between them, the four managed to invest tired country-rock forms with some naive freshness, best exemplified here by "I Don't Want A Lover"--the first song they wrote, and their first hit. --Andrew Mueller Product Description Import pressing of their debut album, originally released in 1989.
