The Works is Nik Kershaw's fourth album. It is the last one he created for MCA Records, in 1989. It introduces slight jazz influences in some tracks.The title could be interpreted as "the end", a possibility supported by the lyrics of the track "Take My Place". He did not release any new material until "15 Minutes", 10 years later. Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson is responsible for some of the better riffs.
