TV Smith’s first solo album, reissued from the master tapes for the first time.
The artwork has been professionally restored and packaged in a deluxe gatefold sleeve with extensive liner notes by longtime fan and author Dave Thompson.
In January 1983, TV SMITH reunited with their ex-promoter Tim Cross and David Bowie’s ex-guitarist Tim Renwick to record “Channel 5” at Wickham Studios in Croydon. 3 weeks later the album was finished and was to be released in June.
“War Fever” was intended to be the first single, but at that time there was a general election in the country in which the ruling Conservative Party played the card of victory in the Falklands War, so the single disappeared without trace.
