Het Schotse Texas dreigde een eendagsvlieg te worden nadat het in het begin van de jaren negentig niet had geprofiteerd van hun Top Tien-debuutsingle - "I Don't Want A Lover" uit 1989. Geconfronteerd met een carrièrecrisis begonnen Sharleen Spiteri en schrijfpartner Johnny McElhone aan hun geluid te sleutelen en moderne technologie te gebruiken.
Cue 1996's enorm succesvolle White On Blonde- album en een stroom van hitnummers. "I Don't Want A Lover", met zijn vermoeide slide-riff, is niet goed gedragen, evenmin als de andere pre-watershed-nummers hier zoals "Everyday Now", "So-Called Friend" en "Prayer For You". Desalniettemin zijn er een tiental uitstekende voorbeelden van gestileerde, bijgewerkte Motown ("Say What You Want", "Black Eyed Boy", "When We Are Together") die de wedergeboorte van de band op het gebied van songwriting laten zien. Voeg daar nog een paar frisse nummers aan toe, mede geschreven met Dallas Austin (de zoete shuffle van "In Demand") en Greg Alexander (de lipglosses "Inner Smile") en The Greatest Hits wordt een stevige popcollectie. -- Mike Pattenden

I ordered my angel to replace one that I accidentally broke. I wasn’t disappointed it is beautiful. It arrived quickly and was securely wrapped. Would definitely recommend
I've bought a few boardgame expansions from Yachew now and have had a great experience. Building up my Marvel Champions collection now and this expansion popped up cheap so went for it. Arrived quickly and pristine.
