客が、つまんなさそうだな

[disrxt]

Andy Partidge is a fucking genius.

[diskochimp]

@disrxt Maybe. But Colin Moulding is even better!

[thunkawoo]

18 years old, been listening to XTC since i was born.

Lovely stuff :)

[Core11953]

@thunkawoo Near that age -- wish I had found them earlier!

[beaglehowl]

Fu(k Yeah!!!! Where is my time machine?

[macxtc]

in my 20's (when I discovered) I was like, why??!!!... in my 30's, I was like they got Pepto-Bismol..... in my 40's, I was like, WE ARE LOOKING FOR YOU ANDY!!!...

in my 50's ... I'm like:"please don't sow up Andy","please don't sow up Andy","please don't sow up Andy".......

[andreaprodan]

Whooopee!

My brother 'introduced' me to XTC with 3-D E.P. and used to go and see them live constantly. When their 1st LP came out he was very pissed off, as it seemed Poppy and commercial... not like the energetic, lloney band he used to watch 'live'. I admit that their LIVE stuff is WAY superior to thei even excelent records. Saw them at the Canterbury odeon in '79. An orgasmic, hormone-shattering experience it was!

懐かしい。



[krizeans]

Partridge rocks.

[TheDustpile]

Lefty singers are very adept at using music to engineer the ideas of young people to the extent of brainwashing.

(Did you know, that in so-called 'hymn practice' at school, we kids were made to sing Bob Dylan and Ralph McTell songs in the 80s?!)

Is this why Labour MPs are so keen to fund special recording studios with public money?

Let's hear behind the scenes of a new top-notch Red session!

Paste title into bar: LEFT WING RECORD MAKERS AND HEART BREAKERS!

[wiatomlo]

@TheDustpile -- talk about brainwashing, Dustpile, you are severely twisted! There's no left and right, just healthy and sick, and conservatives just want to conserve what is sick and unhealthy, like poverty, inequality, and the suffering of the people whose nations the US, Britain and the like have invaded.

[TheDustpile]

Good old Left! Where would we sick, twisted dissidents be without good, solid neutral Red demagogues to annoy?!

The left hardly do a good job of battling poverty or inequality - as Cuba, China, Cambodia, Northern Vietnam, Soviet Russia and the Eastern Bloc nations proved!

I'd rather have a stable, economically strong and morally conservative heartland in which to live rather than a poverty-stricken socialist state. And in the UK we've enjoyed both under the Labour and Tory parties.

[Mrcharliebobo]

@wiatomlo - Your a pretty sick fuckpuppet if you really believe the bullshit you posted!!!

[kezzer2]

Im 50...learning more about this great band....thanks for the communication from around the world....XTC have great fans.

[fuckamericanidiot]

agh no because andy does the backing vocals on the studio version gregory and moulding seriously let down the team here, i think. there's no aggression or attitude or anything in their voices

[therealsoulproduct]

They seriously were such an underrated band. But think they deserve to be in the Hall of Fame.

[Ganbareg]

they never were that media band the bbc wanted, to political even at that time, i love em and always will.

[FLORENT2222]

probably one of the most underrated british bands of the last 30 last years !!!!

what a shame !!!!

[carrotkeith]

Can you think of a more undeservedly underated British band ?

For a man who was shitting himself every time he performed , this shows how good he was . Genius band .

[uncorrectedtraits]

really. it's amazing to think he had to get himself crocked to perform live. i regret never having seen them live with every fiber of my being.

[101Volts]

@carrotkeith I can think of one that's comparable: Flipron. They're barely known anywhere but they rarely do live shows so they're not putting in 110% like XTC did. They've been around since 2003 and have released three albums, I think the best word to describe them is "Surreal". Their debut album is like a nightmare in a carnival.

[stownsendinc]

Oranges and Lemons, definitely a classic but Apple Venus 2 is good too!

[strav12]

I thought this track was on the Black Sea album? - which, like this track, was totally fucking awesome....!

[Jacobrester]

They just tried to hard to be different....the only XTC Album I ever enjoyed was "Oranges and Lemons"

[ibazookajoe]

Mainstreamism....

[Jacobrester]

Nope.......they tried to hard to be different andt never worked ......they could have been much larger than what they were

[ibazookajoe]

Actually, as Andy has said in many interviews, at first they tried to appeal to mainstream audiences and then realised they could do so much more in a studio and let Andy's true potential flow. Songs like: Mayor of Simpleton and Wrapped in Grey would never of been written.

[kezzer2]

@Jacobrester it did work...but as you say,they should have been massive.People are seeing how talented they were...only in recent years...me included...I think Utubers are missunderstanding your comment and giving a thumbs down.Mine was up!

[ashtonions16]

a better xtc shown here live im sure many would agree when andy wished to stop touring they were a different band .
