Solo Projects Discography
The discography entries on this page relate to solo activity and projects and includes work by:
The plethora of compilation albums featuring Limahl’s re-recordings of Kajagoogoo/Limahl hits have been ignored for the purposes of this discography. Only his original releases are included. Releases for special non-English speaking markets are also disregarded in this section. For details on such specialist releases, see the ‘Other Releases’ section.
Nick’s work with Iona and other acts such as Industrial Salt, CoZi, Warren Cuccurullo, Steven Wilson, and Steve Hackett are not included. Recordings that feature Nick as a ‘primary’ member such as ‘Ellis Beggs and Howard’ and ‘Life Signs’ however are listed. See also the ‘other releases’ section.
