Reviews
Edited one year agoI really love XTC, especially their early work. I have not heard any of these B sides, so this is a special treat. Dave Gregory joined the band in '79, so this era spans his contributions too.
"The Somnambulist" channels some Kraftwerk.
Rock on!
Pressing is reasonable, nothing special, but not bad.
