Thinkman - Rupert Hine - Stew on drums

[policerule]

Came across this today. I love Rupert Hine and had no idea Stewart played on an album from Thinkman.

Wiki:
"Hine subsequently recorded three albums under the name Thinkman, which was conceived as a "virtual band" – essentially a solo Hine project with actors (including a then-unknown Julian Clary) employed to give the illusion of a larger group. Thinkman's debut, The Formula, was released in 1985. Though the actors portraying the band did not appear on the album, it did feature contributions from Jamie West-Oram from The Fixx and Stewart Copeland from The Police. Lisa Dalbello provided guest vocals on the title track. A second album, Life is a Full-Time Occupation, was released in 1988. A third and final album, Hard Hat Zone, was released in 1990."

I remember buying the Thinkman LP when it came out but it was unclear which tracks Stewart played on. Anyone know?

I looked a bit and couldn't find anything. Just that link that says he played on the tracks when electronic drums weren't good enough. I bet if we took the time, we could figure it out... should be easy enough!
