The fourth of five albums Richard Thompson would record in Los Angeles with producer and keyboard player Mitchell Froom, Mirror Blue faced the challenge of following one of Thompson's biggest critical and commercial successes, 1991's Rumor and Sigh. Rather than repeat what had worked so well previously, Thompson and especially Froom were more adventurous in the studio, turning off both fans and critics. Still, Guitar World included Mirror Blue on its list of the 50 iconic albums that defined 1994.
"... it was a radical record and a brave record, it was off the back of the records Mitchell had done with Suzanne Vega and Los Lobos and the couple of records (engineer) Tchad Blake had done with Tom Waits. All of which I thought were terrific ... they all had a kind of character to them, a sound that was really trying to strip away some clichés, like why have a snare drum, why the backbeat? And just looking at the song and seeing what does the song need, what’s going to work?"
