XTC - Drums And Wires (1979)

Post image

My first encounter with XTC was this record.

Aside from the truly iconic cover that grabbed my attention, it was this record that helped me to move from listening to the marginally talented punk/post-punk bands to proper musicians that took risks.

Astoundingly clever, Mr. Partridge and company would never let up in the brilliance department including and following this gem. T-Shirt and Vinyl-worthy.

This record is just an embarrassment of riches. I really had forgotten just how brilliant this album is. Not a wasted note from start to finish and at over 70 minutes in length, that’s a big ask.

Possibly XTC’s most reviled album but for me it’s just full of wonderful moments. This is post Andy Partridge’s melt down and led to his refusal to ever tour again.
