Kontrowersyjna płyta Mother Fist And Her Five Daughters nie posunęła kariery Almonda naprzód; w chwili ukazania się kompilacji Singles wydawało się że przeżywa on kryzys. Następna zmiana wytwórni - tym razem na Parlophone - przyniosła singel "Tears Run Rings", a dawne sukcesy Almonda przypomniał odgrzany "Something's Gotten Of My Heart" z Gene'em Pitneyem. Dzięki tej melodramatycznej piosence wdrapali się - obaj po raz pierwszy w karierze solowej - na szczyt listy przebojów.
Almond powrócił w 1990 z albumem zawierającym własne wersje piosenek Jacquesa Brela - Enchanted. Śpiewał w swym zwykłym śmiałym stylu,pod akompaniament gitary flamenco i skrzypiec.Od strony produkcyjnej krążek był bez zarzutu. W 1992 Almond wydal własną wersję piosenki Davida McWilliamsa "The Days Of Pearly Spencer". Powrócił do chłodnych brzmień elektronicznych z lat 80-tych na początku 1996 albumem Fantanstic Star. W tym roku skończył się piętnastoletni kontrakt z jego menedżerem "Stevo".
