Working Overtime

I have emerged from the XTC wormhole clutching a handful of strange gems. Firstly, via my old friend and band mate, Jones Rutledge, three long interviews with each of Andy Partridge, Colin Moulding and Dave Gregory, from 2008 on Rundgren Radio. (Runt produced "Skylarking," dontcha know.) And secondly, a 70-minute set from February, 1982, just two days before the release of their breakthrough, "English Settlement," and a matter of weeks before it all came crashing down.
