Classic Album Sundays Podcast: Sharleen Spiteri on Texas ‘Hi’ and Women in Music

Classic Album Sundays founder Colleen ‘Cosmo’ Murphy is joined by
chart-topping singer-songwriter with the phenomenally successful
band Texas, Sharleen Spiteri, at the Royal Albert Hall as part of
the National Album Day 2021 celebrations with Bowers &
Wilkins.


2021’s National Album Day spotlighted women artists and their
huge contribution to music and culture through the art of the
album. Sharleen discusses her favourite women in music and how
they have influenced her, culminating in choice cuts from the new
Texas album Hi.


Texas’ 10th album, Hi is a stunning result of looking
back with eyes fixed firmly on the future. Collaborations include
Dark Fire, written with Richard Hawley, Look What You’ve Done, an
intoxicating, classic duet with Clare Grogan of Altered Images,
and a swaggering collaboration with the Wu-Tang Clan on the
record’s title track.
