Ah, yeah! KROQ With Dusty?I had this taped back in the day.Its gone. So glad to hear it again. Hope Blue Barret is included. How do I download? Or can I?
It was with Raechel Donahue on a Sunday afternoon, I was ironing my work shirts listening to KROQ and lucky me I had a cassette in my player and hit the record button at the start of the little concert the boys played for us lucky souls in So Calif. All good with Raechels comments, She was swooning.
Andy Partridge has a pretty big vocal range. I sing and play Dear God pretty well on guitar. But can anyone hit those high As?!! I can't. 'But the PEO-ple that you made in your image...' It is only possible if I sing the whole thing an octave lower.
What a terrific treat! I believe the most brilliant gifts are not meant for most households.

A brilliant sense of pop craftsmanship, XTC should have been household names.

There's a bootleg CD (I know it by the title Acoustic Tales) that compiles this and other recordings from that '89 radio station tour.
