Shoot from the Hip
Shoot from the Hip is the second album released by British pop–dance singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor. It was released by Polydor Records on October 27, 2003, and was produced by Gregg Alexander, Matt Rowe, Jeremy Wheatley and Damian LeGassick.
Background
The album was released in Europe in October 2003, but little interest was generated outside the United Kingdom, where the album peaked at #19 on the UK Albums Chart, with the exception of Switzerland, where it peaked at #35 on the Swiss Albums Chart. The album was regarded as the singer's least commercially successful album, until the release of her fourth studio album, Make a Scene, which only reached #33. The album only produced two singles - "Mixed Up World" and "I Won't Change You" - which reached #7 and #9 on the UK Singles Chart respectively. Apart from "Murder on the Dancefloor", none of Ellis-Bextor's solo material had been released in North America, until June 2007, when Shoot from the Hip was added to the American iTunes Store. The songs "I Won't Dance With You" and "The Walls Keep Saying Your Name" feature backing vocals from Ellis-Bextor's ex-boyfriend and ex-manager, Andy Boyd, although his name does not appear anywhere in the album credits.
