The gradual incorporation of extra elements into X's sound and songwriting over the course of their first four releases (all of which were produced by ex-Door keyboardist Ray Manzarek) marked a subtle but unmistakable progression. By the time of this album's appearance the band had already outlasted most of their Los Angeles contemporaries, and with good reason--they had somewhere to go; there was room to grow and develop. "True Love," "I Must Not Think Bad thoughts," and "New World" all have a sound reminiscent of LOS ANGELES.
"Breathless" appeared in a concurrent movie of the same name. It was an audacious move to release a single forever tied to Jerry Lee Lewis, but they made it their own, substituting guitar for piano and Exene Cervenka's irony-tinged take for the Killer's hopped-up vocals. Alas, success on a large and national scale still eluded them and changes were afoot by the time of their next, AIN'T LOVE GRAND.
