Description

Celebrating 30 years of Texas' acclaimed fourth studio album, White on Blonde returns in an expanded 2LP edition, reissued for the first time in three decades. Released in February 1997 into a musical landscape running on Britpop swagger and laddy energy, Texas' landmark fourth LP, which is certified 6x platinum in the UK, was the absolute opposite: a record that embraced the band's love of soul, trip-hop and more, and turned it into a catalogue of emotionally-resonant, radio-ready hit singles. A UK number 1 album featuring five top 10 singles including, "Say What You Want", "Black Eyed Boy", "Halo" and "Put Your Arms Around Me. The band followed it up with curveball moves including a Wu-Tang Clan collaboration on 'Say What You Want (All Day, Every Day)' that earned them a further Top 10. Nothing about any of it was expected, but that was precisely what turned it into magic. Remastered at Abbey Road Studios, this definitive 30th anniversary edition pairs the remastered original album with a collection of demos, rarities and B-sides. Presented in an expanded gatefold sleeve, the 2LP is pressed on one white and one gold vinyl. The package also includes a booklet featuring rare and unseen photographs of the band and new liner notes from Peter Kay.
