Texas, The Conversation. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

Texas have been away for an eternity, the self-imposed hiatus that the group have kept to religiously looked like never ending and since 2005’s release of The Red Book, it looked as if the hiatus was going to end up as a permanent closure. One of the finest Scottish acts would be no more. Never doubt though, always believe that as long as a band have the willing then at some point they will come back together and make a near masterpiece that Di Vinci, Constable or Pitman would have been proud to take ownership of. Where The Red Book faded away, The Conversation never looks as if it could be stopped being talked about.
