Burning Questions is the debut solo studio album by English singer and composer James Warren, (of Stackridge and The Korgis fame). It was released on Sonet Records on 2 February 1987.[1]

The album was recorded between January and October 1985 at Sonet Studio, London. It includes the singles "True Life Confessions" ('The Korgis', June 1985), "Burning Questions" (released as 'The Korgis', October 1985), "They Don't Believe In Magic" ('James Warren', July 1986) and "It Won't Be The Same Old Place" (James Warren, October 1986). None of the singles were a commercial success, but "True Life Confessions" achieved airplay on BBC Radio 2 and Independent Local Radio,[2][3] and peaked at number 166 in the UK Singles Chart on 15 June 1985.[4] "Burning Questions" also received airplay on BBC Radio 2 and I.L.R., but did not chart.[5][6]

Burning Questions was re-issued on compact disc by Angel Air Records in 2007.
