No-One Driving is a collection of John Foxx singles and B-sides, all released 45 years ago in 1980 and now set for release on black vinyl. Includes the singles 'Underpass', 'No-One Driving', 'Burning Car' and 'Miles Away', the latter hinting at a new direction after the minimalism of his 1980 album, Metamatic. Some of Foxx's strongest work is on the B-sides with the likes of 'Film One' and 'Mr. No' being particular Aphex Twin favorites, while 'This City' could easily have been a single in it's own right. An alternative take on '20th Century' became the theme for the Janet Street-Porter TV magazine show, 20th Century Box which was first broadcast by London Weekend Television in 1980, but this B-side remains the definitive, full fledged version. To complete the album are two tracks - 'Cinemascope' and 'To Be With You' - which were later constructed by Foxx out of original cassette recordings, notes and lyrics from the Metamatic sessions and have never been released on vinyl before.
