In many ways, XTC are similar to The Beatles. Both bands have that typically British thing going on, both bands decided - at some point of their career - to stop playing live, both bands are undisputed masters of pop music... Really, it just is a shame XTC never got the huge chart success they deserved.
Their 12 albums all have enough gems so that I didn't have a choice but to display the band's finest tunes on a 3 cds set. Yeah, that's how good Partridge & co were! I even had to ignore the two Dukes of Stratosphear albums because there wasn't enough space to include it properly.
Here are 52 songs to catch up on this ô so sweet band, enjoy!
