I bought the Big Express in Florida back 1989 and loved it as with Mummer and Waxworks and Beeswax. I truly love this band and will take them to the grave with me.
Happy 70th birthday 🎂 andy!! Yr music has meant the world to me! Forever grateful 🙏 cheers 🍻
My favorite album by one of my all-time favorite bands...
Gotta get that 5.1 coming next month!
Indeed!
@@BlackRoomProductions
Great stuff! And so looking forward to the new remix of The Big Express! 👍
Great Album and great cover.
Why is one of my fave XTC recordings unavailable on Spotify & Apple Music? (in Canada anyway)
When TBE preorders open up I'll alert everyone here in the comments. Let's sell it out quick for Andy!
Edit July 27: preorders are live here: burningshed.com/xtc_the-big-express_cd_blu-ray
why "for Andy" ?
Andy's the driving force behind these 5.1s (as far as I know) and would be most pleased of all to see them sell quickly, especially TBE the 'least favorite' XTC album. Also has a stake in Burning Shed iirc.
Colin & Dave would surely be happy but I don't imagine they give much thought to 5.1 success since they like the quiet life.
Darryl Bullock's jaw dropped at the precise moment my chin hit the floor.
I cannot wait!
But as an aside, I really wish that all the albums after 'Nonsuch' were available on Spotify.
I think they are doing themselves a terrible disservice.
I already have the albums of course, but I think a lot of people think XTC's recording career end then.
It's not the full story, if you know what I mean.
Paid Napster ($10.99/month) has AV1 and Wasp Star.
@@BlackRoomProductions Wait, what? Is Napster still going? Is that THE Napster?
@@groovytribemedia9231 lol yep, they rebranded as Rhapsody before reverting back to the-dirty-word. They have all XTC albums and they allow local downloads up to around 20GB so I can listen without hiccups while traveling.
I already have them and then some. I LOVE this band so much. I just wish the whole story was out there for others to discover.@@chrisguygeezer
@@groovytribemedia9231 all of Wasp Star is here on YT
p.s the concept question was mine at the convention
Wait you were there? Did we meet?
Was the question in the full AP interview or the John Leckie panel? Full AP interview is coming soon but I'm waiting for The Big Express preorders to open up, then I'll publish and give Andy an extra pop.
@@BlackRoomProductions AP Interview, unfortunately being in australia can do ya so much as an XTC fan so i wasn't present sadly in swindon
Ah yeah I saw that when I looked up your radio station! I have to finish chapterizing the full Andy interview so I'll certainly catch your question there.
I'm pretty sure Jethro Tull had the "Locomotive" concept first.
Praying 🙏 That … The Dukes Of Stratosphere can resemble soon. The time has never been better, I’m hoping of course 😊
Looking forward to 2032… and have been for 38 years now 😊.
Please Sir John Johns 🙏

great songs crap production. Id love to hear that remixed
You're in luck, it's been remixed by Steven Wilson and available for preorder from Burning Shed. Heard it with my own ears at the screening.
it's very strange and I mean no offence at all but I just hate everything xtc have done apart from Apple venus which is without doubt my favourite album of all time hands down, thanks andy for that masterpiece, me and my three year old dance and sing to it every day.
Has Andy chosen to be completely bald or is that alopecia?
Please let's find the English Settlement masters. Lets start a Go Fund Me if it helps.
