Martin has recorded a studio solo album, featuring Matt Pegg on bass and Andy Giddings on keyboards. The album is calledA Trick of Memory. It will be released worldwide in April on ZYX Records. He also has a contract to record 3 more albums for them.Much confusion resulted when “A New Day” magazine persuaded Martin to release a limited edition live album, called “A Summer Band.” This album was limited to roughly 1000 copies total on CD and tape, and it was sold to “A.N.D.” subscribers. The album contains live performances by The Summer Band, a group Martin formed to play charity gigs near his home. This is NOT Martin’s solo album; his real studio solo album, when it is released, will be sold thru real record stores, and unlike “A Summer Band,” it will contain all original material. Martin even sings on the studio album. (!!
