Originally released in 1996, the year after the Todd Terry mix of 'Missing' had destroyed charts throughout Europe, Walking Wounded was the undisputed commercial high-water-mark for Everything But The Girl. The album was programmed and produced by Watt in 1995 largely in the basement of the duo's north London home demo studio. 'Just an Akai sampler, a computer, a synth and guitar, an inexpensive vocal mic, and an 8-track tape machine,' he says of the process. 'We were writing in reverse - mood first, then songs, learning and we went along. It just felt like a new frontier,' adds Thorn.
