@flockofnazguls It’s been too long. I listened to little else in 1999.
@Doctor_J_ As a long-time XTC fan I was so thrilled with this album - 'River of Orchids' is one of their best songs. And then they had to release 'Wasp Star', alas.
@flockofnazguls I remember hearing River of Orchids before the album came out on a CD from Uncut magazine and I was psyched. I’ve just listened to the last three songs, blimey, what a trio. If they had needed XTC there, that would have been a high point. Wasp Star isn’t bad, but it’s definitely a poorer sibling of volume one.
@Doctor_J_ @flockofnazguls Wasp Star is brilliant.
@revivalrecords @Doctor_J_ Really? I should give it a more recent listen. It really left me cold when it came out.
@flockofnazguls @revivalrecords If anything it has Church of Women which is worth the price of admission
