After being pleasantly surprised by the depth and variety of the James discography, I was floored by the sudden maturation of songwriting the band puts on display with Pleased To Meet You. It's especially surprising given that the release comes so late in their career (their ninth album, fifteen years after their debut). It's tough to peg a specific genre to the album because several are at work and synthesized to great effect. The album manages to be thoughtful without losing its pop sensibility by combining great hooks with full bodied arrangements and song structures. Fresh as a Daisy – The Videos (booklet). James.

James's first new album in six years, La Petite Mort, was released on 2 June 2014 [22] along with a promo single "Moving On". In July 2014, the band headlined on the Castle Stage for Camp Bestival at Lulworth Castle in Dorset and announced a ten date UK tour starting on 10 November, preceded by an 11 October headlining of the entertainment at the Rugby league Super League grand final at Old Trafford, performing a set before the game and in the half time show. Gold Mother was released in June 1990 just as the ' Madchester' movement, with its wave of popular Manchester-based indie bands, brought James to public attention and won them mainstream recognition. [8] Singles "How Was It for You," the remixed " Come Home" and "Lose Control" all made the Top 40, and the band's newfound success was re-affirmed when they played two sold-out dates at the Manchester G-Mex at the end of the year. In March 1991, the popularity of "Sit Down" led to a re-recorded version being released as a single, which reached number 2 in the UK Singles Chart. [8] Gold Mother was re-released to include "Sit Down" and previous single "Lose Control", and the album sold ten times more copies than Travis originally predicted. The song became one of the biggest-selling singles of the year.

Mixing sessions took place in London in the early months of 2001 with some finishing touches being added in early March following a well-deserved break. James had by this point earned themselves a reputation as a live act and had built a solid fanbase. Sales of James T-shirts were particularly successful in Manchester even before they reached the Top 40. James financed the production of a live album One Man Clapping with a bank loan and the help of Rough Trade Records. [8] The album went to number 1 in the indie charts, reinvigorating media interest in the band.
