Espresso Logic is the thirteenth studio album by Chris Rea, released in 1993. The US edition of the album has a significantly different track listing to other editions, as it also features two songs ("God's Great Banana Skin" and "Miles Is A Cigarette") from Rea's previous album, God's Great Banana Skin (not released in the US), along with "If You Were Me", a track recorded with Elton John for his 1993 Duets release. The cover art of the US edition is the same as the UK single "Espresso Logic". The song "Julia" was dedicated to his daughter Julia Christina, who was 4 years old at the time of the release of the album.
