Right so today I am really on one with bands/albums ranging from the mid 80s to the late 90s and seeing as I am, what sort of reviewer would I be if I didn't at least give a quick mention to Texas?

Southside by Texas is one of their most acclaimed albums. Released in 1995 with timeless classics like 'I dont want a lover', the album still rings true with audiences today.

Although they have taken their name from an american state, they are essentially a Scottish pop/rock band. Their music does seem to adopt some of the texan stealy guitar sound and although singer and rhythm guiatris Sharleen Spiter has a lovely Scottish accent, she sings with an american accent (which is a shame but common of the era).

This album has some really great pop songs, I dont Want a Lover being one of many. The overal quality of the vocals is really smooth and undisputable Sharleen has a brilliant and melodic voice. The lyrics are typical of the genre lending themselves really well to romantic melancholy that we seem to love in our pop-rock ballads. In some ways the band sounds a little like some of the early Pretenders stuff (which is definitely a good thing) and I really think although they have had lots of other albums since this one, this is the one that defines them in the time they were beginning to become massive.

Review of Southside - Texas by brownp1

Advantages: classy production
Disadvantages: none

Before Chris Evans fell big style for Sharleen and relegated the other members to mere backing musicians Texas were a proper band who merged MOR with western soundtracks and Sharleens distinctive voice to produce instantly recognisible sounds. Southside, their first album, highlights this mixture with the epic jangly opening to "I don't want a lover" before the song proper starts and continues with slide guitar in a prominent position in the mix. ...

Review of White On Blonde - Texas by  Izzy

Advantages: Relaxing. Music to have a glass of wine on a Summer's day by
Disadvantages: The singles were remixed, therefore the album versions are different

...Remember Texas. They did the excellent album "Southside" in 1989 and then disappeared from the face of the Earth. Well, actually they didn't. They produced 2 fairly average albums before the rather lovely "White On Blonde". If it hadn't have been for Chris Evens promoting "Say What You Want" on the Radio One breakfast show this fine album might not have had the attention, and sales, it deserved. It is a fine relaxing album with such good vocals by Sharleen that you can almost imagine that Summer is just around the corner. Class!!!!... Read review
