On this date in 1980, Colin Newman released his debut solo single, "B". It was supported by "The Classic Remains" and "Alone On Piano". The A side appeared on his debut solo album, A-Z. The other tracks did not but were added when the album was re-released on CD. The guitarist and vocalist for punk/post punk band Wire did not slow down when the band was put on hiatus. He released a series of solo albums before rejoining the band when it became active again. Colin Newman's solo work was more experimental than Wire's sound.
