Randy in the 70s

This is the place where we are going to be organising the launch of Randy’s album release project. You will be able to see which albums are likely to be re-released and give us feedback on what albums you would like to see available and when:

Involved in the project are:

Randy Matthews (of course!, based in Florida USA)

Rev. Darren Hirst (UK based pastor, writer, musician and professional actor)

Bim Ingersoll (from Canada, musician and general creative)

Here are some photos of Randy and Darren at recent planning times in New York:

Randy was very much in Redbeard mode during his stay in New York (2025)
I’d be happier if this didn’t make me look so chubby. Randy is svelte by comparison

The first thing we need to do is fill in a questionnaire which help guide us through this project.

Here are the albums we are considering releasing:

Eyes to the Sky………………………………………

Now Do You Understand………………………..

Live in Australia………………………………………

Randy Matthews (self-titled)…………………….

All I Am is What You See…………………………..

Son of Dust……………………………………………..

(some of you may already have Son of Dust on cd)

Plugged In………………………………………………

Matthews Taylor and Johnson…………………

The Edge of Flight…………………………..

(There may be some copyright issues on this one)

Songs related to Randy’s Red Beard alter-ego……….

Wish We’d All Been Ready……………

Streets of Mercy……………………..

(These last two are Randy’s least favourites and will only be released if demand is maintained)

Also:

A new acoustic album of Randy’s best known songs……..

And a new recording of new and old songs with a full band….

Please enter a number next to each title after the dotted line where the number indicates as followed:

1 – I would be interested in buying this title on cd

2 – I would be interested in buying this title on heavyweight vinyl record

3 – I would buy both cd and vinyl

4 – I would buy cd or vinyl and pay extra for an autographed item

5 – I would buy cd and vinyl and pay extra for an autographed item

6 – This particular title does not interest me

7 – Who is Randy Matthews and why am I lookng at this website anyway?

Add a number at the end of every dotted line, Then copy and paste the questionnaire and send this to rm2@randymatthews.net. You can send fan communications to Randythrough this email.

These will then be seen by me (Darren Hirst) and results to logged to see how much cds and records would cost and we would thwn pass the numbers onto our chosen manufacturer to get a quote and then a kickstarter campaign if the price seems to be viable.

Any and all profits from this project will go to Randy Matthews and his family. The other organisers will not take a cut.

Thank you to Charles Norman (Larry’s brother), Ash Matthews (Randy’s son) and Isobel Hirst for getting us this far.

Ash and Randy are having a beard competition.

Interviews with Randy are coming soon…

      Only two of these albums have ever been legally available on cd and one of those was never on vinyl.

      You obviously have a better collection than the copyright holders. Well done.

      Randy is recording new music and there is an option to email your interest in that if you wish to.

    i grew up on Randy Matthews. To me he was a pioneer like Keith Green or Larry Norman. I’d be interested in the vintage and new.
