Production The album's production was handled by Trevor Horn's engineer Stephen Lipson, who urged the band to play their own instruments on this album (Horn having replaced many of the band's performances and arrangements with his session musicians or his own performances on Welcome to the Pleasuredome). According to Nash, the band was given contradicting information, with Horn considered as a producer or executive producer. In the end Horn took over mixing it on which "spent a whopping £500,000 (making £840,000 in all) tidying it up". The band was so much in debt that they had to sell at least a million copies to start earning "a penny".
