1990 is arguably Daniel's best known album other than his unfinished album Hi, How Are You? It contains the songs Some Things Last a Long Time and True Love Will Find You in the End, though a demo of the latter was originally released on his Retired Boxer album from 1984. The majority of the album was recorded in 1988 but the sessions were also left unfinished when Daniel suffered a mental breakdown. In fact the album was supposed to be called 1989 and released that year but it couldn't be finished in that time.
1990 was also not Daniel's first attempt at recording a studio album. His first one would be Continued Story from 1985 where he was backed by a band called the Texas Instruments. However following the release of 1990, Daniel released two EPs. The Big Big World EP was released in 1991 but was recorded in 1986 and features Daniel being backed by a different band called the Rhythm Rats. Next is the Laurie EP which released in 1992 but was recorded in 1989.
The first half of the album is the "solo" half and features tracks from 1990 as well as a version of the song Whiz Kid which is from the Laurie EP but originally came from the Merry Christmas album. The second half is the "band" half and features tracks from the Continued Story album and the Big Big World EP.
