Texas Fever is the acclaimed six-track EP by Scottish indie pop pioneers Orange Juice, released in 1984 between the albums Rip It Up and The Orange Juice.

Pressing Notes

Original 1984 UK pressing on Polydor Records, catalogue number OJMLP 1.

Produced primarily by Dennis Bovell, with A Sad Lament produced by Martin Hayles, Texas Fever was issued as a 12-inch six-track EP rather than a full-length album. Original UK Polydor pressings are highly regarded for their superb analogue sound and remain increasingly collectible among Orange Juice fans.
