Finally, a third offering from The Scissor Sisters --
Night Work is the third studio album. Nearly four years after they last release the album Ta-Dah!. The band had teamed-up with acclaimed producer/mixer Stuart Price. Story has it that none of the then supposed tracks for Night Work had made the final cut. It's been told as well that the whole 18-month material was scrapped as the group was not confident enough to get behind this song - had that happened, it would deem that it's over for the band. That is when they started re-scouting for resources and Jake Shears, the band's lead vocalist went to Berlin in Germany to find inspiration for new material for the first single and other tracks.Kylie Minogue had met Stuart Price at the time the band was in the middle of their Night Work sessions. It is known that Jake Shears is very good friends with Kylie and he mentioned that this was the path the group has taken in terms of production. Kylie was very much interested in the idea and had adopted this approach where all the finished cuts will go through Stuart for final processing.
Between Ta-dah! and Night Work, I'm still torn which one is the better album. But one thing's for sure though - that Night Work is a real treat!
The band had been performing live with Kylie on stage. The one that marked in the history of music entertainment is Kylie's debut at the Glastonbury Festival performing with the band the song Any Which Way which would be now the second single off the album.
