This will probably get me shot if I've got it wrong but if I put SORRY
loudly at the beginning and E&OE prominently here as well and ask for
anyone who finds errors to notify the list promptly then hopefully it
won't be too bad.
nohow - I've just done a trawl of the discography and these (I THINK)
are most of the releases the band issued themselves (or gave permission
for). There may well be some I've missed and/or some I've got wrong
and if so I'm open to correction.
As far as compilations are concerned generally anything that has Brian
Tawn's intro or comments is official. Otherwise I haven't got a clue
since many of the compilation albums listed were official only on their
first release. Subsequent re-issues and takeovers, changes of labels
and sales of rights have made them rather less bona fide. Apply to
the band for an update I think!
