Not in My Airforce

Untitled

Not in My Airforce (1996) is Robert Pollard's first solo album, released simultaneously with Tobin Sprout's Carnival Boy, just as the "classic" Guided by Voices lineup was dissolving.

In 2007, Pollard launched a new record label, Prom Is Coming Records, which took its name from a track off this album.
