    (UK CD 23 Jan 2006: Sunbeam Records SBRCD5009; Japanese CD 21 Feb 2007: Victor VICP63741)
Produced by Sandy Roberton. Robin told me 3 Feb 2006 about the CD release: "Yes this has been in the pipeline for sometime. There was an article, celebrating me and my contemporaries on the singer songwriter scene way back, in 'Record Collector' in Dec 05. The journalist Richard Mortimer has an interesting specialist label which I felt was appropriate for WFTWG."

1970 UK various artists LP (+ CD) 49 GREEK STREET

Robin's song is the first track on LP side 2. Ian Harris told me 24 March 2003: "A track in the vein of the Woman From The Warm Grass album but a bit rockier".

Info facebook 7 March 2024: "Back in the days before the X Factor [a British television music competition launched in 2004] existed, the English competition ‘Search for a Star’ (launched by EMI) was the vehicle for up-and-coming performers to showcase their talent. Robin's band Zeta Flix (with Pete Davis on guitar, Pete Thomas on drums and Julian Scott on bass) won the competition in 1971 (we think!), not long after he had recorded ‘Woman from the Warm Grass’ [1969]. He spent the £500 prize money on a Revox tape machine and was offered a record deal. It was a solo deal and didn’t include his band so Robin turned EMI down!"

16 Nov 1979 International 7"/12" M: Moonlight and Muzak

    Moonlight and Muzak 4.00 [Single Version] / Woman Make Man 2.15 (UK 7": MCA 541)

    Moonlight and Muzak 5.35 [LP Version] / Woman Make Man 2.15 (1st UK 12": MCAT 541)

    Moonlight and Muzak [Extended Version] 6.03 / Woman Make Man 2.15 (2nd UK 12": MCAT 541)

Info from Jim: "There were two 12" singles of "Moonlight & Muzak" originally issued in the UK. The first 12" was the LP version. It was issued in a picture cover (the perfume bottle) on the MCA label, catalog # MCAT541. A second 12" was issued with the same cover, labels and catalog number, etc! But this second 12" contained the extended remix. The only way to tell the two 12"'s apart was a small sticker affixed to the cover of the second 12" that had the words 'new mix'."

22 Feb 1980 International 7"/12" M: That's the Way the Money Goes

    That's the Way the Money Goes 3.48 [Single Version] / Satisfy Your Lust 3.22 (Remix) (UK 7": MCA 570)

    That's the Way the Money Goes 10.29 (Extended version) / Satisfy Your Lust 6.59 (Extended Remix) (UK 12": MCAT 570)

    Cowboys & Indians 5.30 (Special 12" Remix by M) / Satisfy Your Lust 6.59 (Extended Remix) (French 12": Ariola 100.148)

    That's the Way the Money Goes (Part 1 & 2) 10.40 (Special 12" Remix by M)/
    Cowboys & Indians 5.30 (Special 12" Remix by M) [= 'Extended version'] (US promo 12": Sire, PRO-A-851)

Clive described the B-side versions: "The 7" version (which features some orchestra strings on the beginning and a drum/bass 'breakdown' at the end) is actually an edit of the longer 12" version. The 12" version is basically an instrumental mix of Moderne Man (orchestral album version) also with that 'strings' intro and 'breakdown' ending - but with Satisfy Your Lust left intact."

1980 French promo 12" M: Cowboys & Indians

    Cowboys & Indians (Version Longue - Remix) 5.31 / Satisfy Your Lust (Remix Version) 6.56 (Arabella SAM 3008)
Info from https://www.discogs.com/M-Cowboys-Indians/release/1627391 : "The version of "Satisfy Your Lust" is different than any other release I've found, it's basically the album version medley of "Modern Man/Satisfy Your Lust", with the vocals on "Modern Man" dropped out."

Robin Scott commended on facebook 20 Sep 2023: "The A-Z of M! O is for (The) Official Secrets Act… This was the soundtrack to an imaginary movie. At the start of each recording session, I had the sketch of a song, but would give a brief to the gifted players working with me for the arrangements. This allowed the freedom for their creativity and and chance to play its part. Phil Gould, (drummer who also featured on New York, London, Paris, Munich), kindly introduced Mark King as I had it in mind to feature 2 drummers! I auditioned Mark in the studio, quickly discovering he was a multi-instrumentalist! He matched Phil's expertise as a drummer but was also a gifted bass and lead guitarist with an abundance of energy and humour! They both played a significant role in fueling my inspiration whilst I scripted the plot on the fly! Wally Badarou, Julian Scott and Brigit Novik were already established in the M lineup, and together with Phil Begly and Denis Blackham (engineers), helped complete the picture. The album became a significant departure from Pop Muzik - more a commentary on the Cold War cloud overhead."

1985 various artists LP LIVE AT THE ZAP CLUB

Ian Harris: 'It states all tracks recorded live at the Zap Club, Brighton, though this is not the case, as last track side two is Robin Scott's 'Kiss of Life'. This is a different version to those backing the Eureka re-issue, and sounds to me like a demo version (it lacks the female backing singers). There is an insert, with a photo of Robin, and the following text: 'ROBIN SCOTT...the Pied Piper of Pop...an idea so simple and ingenious,...Pop Music [sic]...(popular, a.of the people.) Where is M now? Who knows? New York? London ? Japan? Africa!...a world of musicial influences. Be seeing you...welcome to THE KISS OF LIFE.' The credits state all tracks produced by John Watts.'

1992? 1993? 1995? UK promo 12" Spiritual Man

    Spiritual Man [Mix 3] 4.56 / Spiritual Man [Mix 4] 3.50
Ian Harris found this promo 12". He says: "It appears to be a promo, with only the M logo on each label with no credits and no sleeve. It features 4 different mixes of Spiritual Man, the matrix number on the run out groove is LOT001." The press release says: "M - Spiritual Man. No need to talk about the past - just concentrate on the present. "Spiritual Man" is a great new single from M, who have been silent for a very long time indeed. At the moment the track, which comes in four excellent mixes, is unsigned and therefore only exsists in very limited 12" white label form - and the white labels are only available from us ["Rush Release Limited" - Ian]. The mixes of Spiritual Man cover enough ground to appeal to a wide range of music lovers, as you'll soon hear. Once you sort out which side is which, you'll hear the ambient techno stylings of the two mixes on side A - which both come complete with deep and dubby bass lines, Lebanese female vocals, African chants and childlike vocal hooks (check the second mix for seriously silly bottom end and digeridoo) - and the more directly song based mixes on side two, which seem to be coming more out of the "Deep Forest" school. All in all one of them is bound to capture the attention of all but the most jungle fixated. "Spiritual Man" is an excellent, mysterious record, and it makes for a very interesting return for the excellent and mysterious M. Play it!".

Ian Harris' comments from Jan 19th 2000: "Last night I got hold of 3 different 12" promos of Pop Y2K. They come in colour-co ordinated sleeves featuring "pop y2k" printed in reverse on the front, the reverse features "pop y2k" printed the right way round and a "millennium bug" in a warning triangle. All the labels say 45rpm, when in fact all 3 records are 33rpm. The Sunshine State and Olmec Heads versions feature new vocals from Robin along with the original Pop Muzik samples. The Sunshine state is the only one to actually mention "Y2K", I assume that when the track is officially released this will be the "lead" mix."

"A retrospective double CD which includes previously unreleased material recorded between 1968 and 1998." ... "Life Class is the definitive Robin Scott collection. The first ever release on the sparkling new Yup! Records, this limited edition double CD album gathers together the very best moments from a very diverse artist. It is an album that documents the familiar as well as the obscure - ranging from that definitive 80s moment (released under Robin's pseudonym "M") 'Pop Muzik', to tracks taken from Robin's fifth album featuring the South African female trio 'Shikisha', as well as unreleased tracks unearthed from personal archives." Only available from www.robinscott.org "and at Coco de Mer in Covent Garden, the location of my next show featuring artwork on the site which runs through to Xmas".

Yup! Records press release: "Robin Scott, writer and performer of the M classic 'Pop Muzik', has returned to his roots to form an independent label but this time it's virtual! The first release on Yup! Records is Robin's retrospective album 'Life Class' in response to the continued interest from an international on line cult following. Have a look at the new site and the release at www.robinscott.org The title of this flagship album project "Life Class" has been married with his artwork comprising two CDs of material recorded pre and post Pop Muzik: The first includes a selection of titles previously released commercially. The second CD includes tracks which have remained part of his own archive of unreleased material. Some dates back to John Peel's 'Night Ride' sessions in the early 70s. There are also various bedroom demos from the same period and a number of as yet unreleased studio masters from the last two decades which document his musical diversity. The groundbreaking design for the CD package has evolved from the creation of a body of art work by Robin, reflecting his fine art background as a painter. A recent London exhibition of this current collection has subsequently been simulated in a virtual gallery at www.robinscott.org Visitors to this colourful virtual space can experience a rich interactive audio visual tour of ''the life class collection' before browsing the online shop where prints and CDs are available to order. In between promotional activities, Robin is back in the studio preparing new work for 2004. 'Life Class' is exclusively available from www.robinscott.org for £16 including post & packaging. The first 500 copies will be personally autographed by Robin."
