Album Notes Squeeze: Glenn Tilbrook (vocals, guitar, keyboards); Chris Difford (vocals, guitar); Keith Wilkinson (vocals, bass); Kevin Wilkinson (drums). Additional personnel includes: Cathy Dennis (vocals); Heitor Peretor (guitar); John Savannah (keyboards, background vocals); Martin Byrne (synthesizer); Chris Braide, Georgy Dennis (background vocals). This 1995 album came out to little fanfare in the States, though Squeeze continued to be a solid draw in their homeland England, with a back catalog justifiably revered by their following. This time out leaders Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook offer up fourteen more smartly written and arranged odes to the ins and outs of life and love. "Electric Trains" is a heartfelt reminiscence back to a boyhood transition from the hobby mentioned in the title to a guitar and a band. The gorgeous "Temptation For Love" finds Tilbrook dueting with one Cathy Denis whose parallel singing is like a soft drop shadow. And as the band are wont to do, the album's name shows up as simply a word in "Daphne" which has a chorus of "Daphne, don't be ridiculous." This is smart and stylish pop music for discerning listeners. The hooks are subtle and yield their rewards slowly but unshakably.
Industry Reviews Twenty years into it, Squeeze's Difford and Tilbrook still fashion ditties of sly wit, true romance and melodic cleverness... - Rating: B+ Entertainment Weekly (07/12/1996)
