Having bought several XTC 12"s in retrospect during the 90s and 00s I missed out on a certain element of suspense. I can well imagine the completist fans looking at the 'Great Fire' 12", finding 'Homo Safari 5 and 6' having got up to Homo Safari 3 on an earlier release, and thinking 'HEY, no Homo Safari 4! Have I missed something or is this Andy playing about?'....

This one proved it was the latter. How he could DO that to us? 😆

Side 2 is the better side, in terms of memorable songs. But Side 1 has the abstract jazz tune - Mantis on Parole, which is actually pretty good.
