No Blackbirds in Carolina was ABBEY’s first CD, recorded and released during the Summer of 2007. ABBEY used equipment from the following manufacturers in the making of the CD: Yamaha and Casio keyboards, Roland drum machine, Line 6 and Fender guitars, and Shure microphones.

ABBEY would also like to thank the other members of Section 62, without whom they would never have been inspired to make this CD - Pete “Deed Poll Dave” Adams for additional harmony vocals on Nowhere Man and for providing the idea behind the CD title, and Dave Baggalley and Dave ‘Pip’ Levy for just being there.

Streets of Philadelphia was recorded and released during the Autumn of 2007 and takes its title from the Bruce Springsteen song of the same name. The CD includes the longest and most complex piece of music that ABBEY have attempted to date - The Alan Parsons Project classic, ‘Sirius/Eye In The Sky’ - which runs for well over six minutes.

The Best Of No Blackbirds In Carolina and Streets Of Philadelphia is, as suggested by the title, a compilation album made up of the best tracks from the first two CD’s. The CD has eighteen tracks and includes a bonus track, ‘Don’t Answer Me’, which has not previously appeared on their recordings.
