Tell Me (album)


 * For the Amy-Elizabeth song, see The Return (Amy-Elizabeth album).

Tell Me is the fourth studio album by the Given Takers. It was released on November 14, 1987 by Viva Records. In the US, it would be the band's second-to-last release on Warner Bros. Records, and the band would later sign on to Def American Recordings (now going by simply American Recordings) for future US releases.

It is the band's first studio album since 1982's Number 3, leaving a 5-year hiatus between the two albums. The reason for this was due to the fact that since critics found the lyrical content of Number 3 lacking, the band spent less time on writing, and more on writing creative lyrical content.

To promote the album, a charity concert was held at the Venza Community Stadium in Eruowood. A theatrical film of the concert would be released on the Christmas of 1987, along with a soundtrack album. All proceeds from the film and soundtrack were donated to charity. The film's soundtrack would be the band's last Warner Bros. release.

The album's title track would end up being the band's only number 1 single in the US and the Vlokozu Union.
