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:
“He shall not die, by G—, cried my uncle Toby.
MThe ACCUSING SPIRIT which flew up to heaven’s chancery with the oath, blush’d as he gave it in;—and the RECORDING ANGEL as he wrote it down, dropp’d a tear upon the word, and blotted it out for ever.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
“If I were to be taken hostage, I would not plead for release nor would I want my government to be blackmailed. I think certain government officials, industrialists and celebrated persons should make it clear they are prepared to be sacrificed if taken hostage. If that were done, what gain would there be for terrorists in taking hostages?”
—Margaret Mead (1901–1978)
