Almost all of them had been the members of Glass Onion. Songs recorded 1990 through 1996 were featured on the first albums of the band. The debut single All I Want To Do Is Rock was recorded by Travis at their own label Red Telephone Вох under the guidance of Yen McAndrew. In 1997, Travis released their first long player Good Feeling. This album invaded the first ten of the British charts. The local mass media proclaimed Travis one of the best young bands of the year. This inspired the musicians to work hard on the next record. It was produced in May 1999 under the title The Man Who and astonish the audience as the hit of the summer thanks to the track Why Does It Always Rain On Me?, one of the British chart-toppers in August. After the striking performance given by Travis at Woodstock'99, The Man Who topped the British charts and became the most successful record of the year.
