Not To (disc 2) tracks 1 - 4 were recorded solo in West Norwood and are obvious precursors of their album counterparts. Tracks 14 - 21 were also recorded solo in West Norwood and supplied material for a concert at the Venue, while 5 - 13 were recorded solo in Gloucestershire, on Robert's borrowed 4-track and were part of an attempt to write a follow-up to Not To.
The final recording was made at Scorpio Sound (where all 3 orginal albums were recorded) and was the second A-side'to the single 'We Means We Starts'/'Not To' and featured Simon, Charles Arthur & Linn drum programming by Scritti Politti's Tom Morley.
Colin Newman's 3 classic early 80's solo albums A-Z, provisionally entitled the singing fish & Not To originally released on Beggars Banquet / 4AD re-released on his own new imprint Sentient Sonics.
VINYL - unavailable for many years'remastered original albums on single vinyls.
CD - the 3 remastered original albums each accompanied by a companion CD of extra tracks, b-sides & demos - quite a lot of which have never been released - released as 3 double digipacks.
The Original 3 albums:
These albums were recorded and released between 1980 & 1982 in a 'post 154' rush of activity. While all the albums bear the name Colin Newman they differ in that A-Z & Not To were recorded as 'band' albums with Colin being joined by Wire's Robert Grey, Mike Thorne (who also produced, as he had the first 3 Wire albums) & Desmond Simmons on A-Z and Robert, Desmond & Simon Gillham on Not To. provisionally entitled the singing fish was more an 'actual' solo album in that everything was played by himself. Colin produced the latter 2 albums with Steve Parker engineering.
