Reviews
- Underrated XTC album in my opinion.
This pressing is quite punchy and bass heavy. - Any idea of when they repressing this for vinyl? Hard to find a clean copy
Sounds a lot like Be Bop Deluxe's final album Drastic Plastic (1978)
1978. What a year for LPs.
Partridge should do a full 'Deluxe' version of this with the 3 out-takes from the box-set,the 2 out-takes that appeared on later 7"'s,'Are You Receiving' single........and all the other stuff he has ferretted away.
One of the greatest and most innovative albums not only of the late seventies but of all times! Especially "Go +" was a sensation and sounded like nothing I had ever heard before!
I got the Go+
