In 1981 Potter and Evans released a follow-up to this album, The Long Hello Volume Two. There also is a Long Hello Volume Three (by Jackson and Evans, 1982) and Long Hello Volume Four (by Jackson, Evans and Life of Riley, 1983). The album Gentlemen Prefer Blues (by Jackson, Banton and Evans, 1985) is sometimes regarded as a sort of "Long Hello Volume Five."
