Church and Solo Albums
This page is a kind of index to the material held elsewhere in
Shadow Cabinet. By giving each album it's own page, not only can
I tell you more about each album but it can springboard into the
appropriate sections of the other pages, such as lyrics,
pictures, or whatever. 
Church Albums
My thanks to Mike Fulmer, maintainer of the Church discography. The links for more recent albums go to his site's albums pages which are, frankly, much better than these at the moment :)
The Refo:mation - Pharmakoi/DCHWEU
- Steve, Peter and Tim have recorded a brilliant album. Get this
one ! 
Steve Kilbey
    - Dabble
    
 - Remindlessness is Steve's
        most complex and rich solo album. 
    
 - Unearthed was partly
        intended as a kind of "soundtrack to a film that
        hasn't been made." Othertime was the first
        song of Steve's I learned to play and has remained a
        favourite ever since. 
 
    - The Slow Crack was released
        around the same time as Starfish. Hear Steve play blues
        piano ! 
 
    - Narcosis Plus is a
        re-release of the Narcosis EP with four more tracks
        included. 
 
    - Gilt Trip - An
        instrumental album recorded by Steve and his brother
        Russell. 
 
    - Jack Frost - The first,
        self-titled Jack Frost album. This is a band consisting
        of Steve Kilbey and Grant McLennan, formerly of
        Australian band The Go-Betweens.
 
    - SnowJob is the latest
        Jack Frost album. 
 
    - Vast Halos was the second
        album Steve and Donette Thayer made together under the
        name Hex. 
 
    - Sleeping With The Lion
        was Margot Smith's first album. Steve produced and
        co-wrote some of the tracks. 
 
    - Fake is an album on which
        Steve worked as producer. This was kept secret for a long
        time due to contractual spaghetti.
 
    - Loudspeaker is an album
        of poetry read/sung to backing tracks, to which Steve
        contributed one track. A second Loudspeaker album was created but Steve's only appearance was to play bass on one song.
 
 
Marty Willson-Piper
    - Hanging Out In Heaven is
        in the pipeline and should be released in January 1999
    
 - Seeing Stars is the
        latest release involving Marty. 
 
    - Spirit Level was
        Marty's last solo album and was released in 1992. 
 
    - In Reflection was
        Marty's first album and is only available on vinyl. Let
        the searching begin...
         
    - Dive is an album from
        "Dare" Mason, Marty's long time friend and
        musical collaborator. Dare produced the Sometime Anywhere album,
        all of Marty's solo albums, and also wrote the liner
        notes for Marty's Art Attack album.

first release from Russell's new band. He kindly sent me a copy

Warp Factor 9
Miscellaneous Stuff
This might be fairly subjective but I've compiled a list of production errors to be found on
various albums. 
Many Church vinyl releases have messages
cut into the inner grooves. Weird stuff, but vital reading !
