My Aim Is True was recorded at Pathway Studios, Islington in a total of 24 hours' studio time and at a cost of £2000. As I still had my 'day-job,' these sessions had to take place on 'sick days' and holidays during late 1976 and early 1977.

Both "Radio Sweetheart" and "Stranger In The House" two of only three "out-takes" from My Aim Is True (the other, a version of "Living in Paradise", is also lost).

Track 16 features the band Flip City. There is no personnel listing for this session, but it is included with thanks to all long-term serving band members: Mich Kent (Bass), Malcolm Dennis or Ian Powling (Drums), Steve Hazelhurst (Guitar) and Dickie Faulkner (Percussion). (Also Mike Whelan and Ken Smith)."
