Colin Newman’s 3 classic early 80’s solo albums originally released on Beggars Banquet / 4AD re-released on his own new imprint Sentient Sonics. "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.
The extra tracks on Not To were recorded solo in West Norwood and are obvious precursors of their album counterparts."
