Propellor Time is the seventeenth studio album by Robyn Hitchcock, the third and last recorded with The Venus 3 (Peter Buck of R.E.M., Scott McCaughey of Young Fresh Fellows and Bill Rieflin of Ministry and R.E.M.). It was released in 2010 via Yep Roc.
Additionally, an array of guest musicians collaborated with Hitchcock on Propellor Time; selected tracks feature contributions (some dating back to the Olé! Tarantula era) from John Paul Jones, Johnny Marr, Nick Lowe, and former Soft Boy/Egyptian bandmate Morris Windsor.
Different versions of "The Afterlight", "Luckiness" and "Sickie Boy" had appeared on previous releases.
Outtakes from the Propellor Time recording sessions are available on tracks 2, 5, 6 and 12 of the 2010 Hitchcock rarities compilation, Trolley Bus 2.
