Recording and Release
The album was recorded in at least two (possibly three) separate session sequences. One (or two) with Jonny Toobad on drums and another with Kevin Wilkinson on drums.
Given the tour dates above, the departure date of Toobad and the stated commitment (on the album sleeve) to work together between the following dates;
- Period 1: 19 March to July 22
- Period 2: September 8 to September 24
- Period 3: November 10 to December 4
Then we can deduce that;
- The first sequence of recording sessions may have begun in early June during the break between Parts 1 and 2 of the tour,
- A second sequence may also have book-ended the September dates of Part 3 of the tour,
- The final sequence of recording sessions must have occurred after the tour had concluded.
The album was then released in February 1981 in the UK, Japan, France and the USA as well as Germany and Italy.

Famous quotes containing the words recording and/or release:
“Write while the heat is in you.... The writer who postpones the recording of his thoughts uses an iron which has cooled to burn a hole with. He cannot inflame the minds of his audience.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“An inquiry about the attitude towards the release of so-called political prisoners. I should be very sorry to see the United States holding anyone in confinement on account of any opinion that that person might hold. It is a fundamental tenet of our institutions that people have a right to believe what they want to believe and hold such opinions as they want to hold without having to answer to anyone for their private opinion.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
