Building on the sound of their eponymous previous release, the band's performance on Tellin' Stories has the feel of a classic British rock band, combined with the more focussed songwriting of 'Britpop'. It has aged well. Beggars Banquet now release a special expanded and remastered edition, with a bonus disc featuring a collection of b sides plus an unreleased, early version of 'Don't Need a Gun', originally entitled 'Rainbow Chasing'.
