The Luxury of Time is the debut album by singer-songwriter David Mead, released by RCA Records in 1999.

"Though sporting a somewhat glossier sound, The Luxury of Time fits nicely alongside the works of such artists as Freedy Johnston and Ron Sexsmith as the touchstone for the '90s new crop of young writers."

Indiana is the third album by singer-songwriter David Mead, released in 2004, his first for Nettwerk.

"Indiana may lack the immediate hookiness that made The Luxury of Time and Mine and Yours so irresistible, but it's every bit as strong and should prove to be just as enduring."
