Record Albums (1984–1995)

Prior to the TV series, a series of record albums was released during the 80s and early 90s. Two of them were adapted into videos. There was also a VHS release titled "Colby's Place" in 1989. It wasn't based on any albums, but it was possibly a pilot episode for another planned series that never came to fruition (most likely because it was rejected for being too similar to "Kids Incorporated"). The last album, "A Heart to Give" was adapted into the first episode of the final TV series, which was divided into two parts. The following is a list of the albums in their release order. * Colby 1: Make a Joyful Noise (1984) * Colby 2: Colby's Missing Memory (1985 ideo 1986 * Colby 3: Save Colby's Clubhouse (1986) * Colby 4: God Uses Kids (1987) * Colby 5: Putting Feet on Faith (1990 ideo, 1992 * Colby 6: Colby's Bible Camp Catastrophe (1991) * Colby 7: A Heart to Give (1995)
