The band finished the album (most of Collins' parts had already been recorded) and it too topped the British charts; The Charlatans were now being hailed as rock's ultimate survivors.
Having outlasted almost every other British rock band of the '90s and survived adversities that would have killed off The Rolling Stones, having released a dozen classic singles and five excellent albums, they've earned the right to be taken seriously.
