Album Description
Available in:
Jordan: The Comeback is the fifth album by English pop band Prefab Sprout, released in September 1990.

This album showed Prefab Sprout continuing their musical evolution from the prickly jangle guitars of Swoon, their debut. The use of synths is more prominent, lending the album a poppier feel, and Paddy McAloon explores other genres on some songs, from samba to doo wop.
This album is to some extent a concept album, though what the concepts are is somewhat opaque. NME (a British music journalism magazine) described the album as covering "Love, Elvis, God and Death"—all the big topics. Allmusic described songwriter and lead singer Paddy McAloon as "chasing his twin preoccupations of religion and celebrity, creating a loose thematic canvas perfect for his expanding musical palette"

Three singles were released from the album in the UK: "Looking for Atlantis", "We Let The Stars Go" and a four-track EP titled "Jordan: The EP" on which the featured track was "Carnival 2000".

The album with its cover designed by Gerry Judah was critically acclaimed: it was nominated for Best Album at the Brit Awards, and reached #7 on the charts in the UK.

The 64-minute album was, unusually, issued as a single vinyl LP running for over 30 minutes each side.
