I do have what little of his output has been reissued on CD, including Truth Decay, the self titled album (originally on the resucitated Dot label) and The Criminal Under My Own Hat. And yes, those releases are just as good.
It is a bit of a shame that his success as a producer has come at the expense of his own recorded output. Or maybe he just likes being a producer more than a recording artist. Being a respected in-demand producer probably pays a *bit* more!
