On 16th August 1979, XTC released their third studio album “Drums and Wires” featuring the single “Making Plans for Nigel". That single made No 17 in the UK singles chart and
marked the band's commercial breakthrough. #XTC #DrumsAndWires

What's the new policy? The blocking thing? Or have I thankfully missed something? BTW, Mike (drumsandwires?)is here!

Am I asleep
Or am I fast
Your every race
You first, you last
Roads girdle the globe
We safe in your concrete robe
Hail mother motor
Hail piston rotor
Hail wheel
Roads girdle the globe

This album was never one of my favorites in XTC's catalog but Wilson's new Dolby Atmos mix helps me to appreciate it a lot more. Its very warm and natural sounding, and reveals a lot of nuance I never knew was there.

Obviously, having then listened to another album from the same year (&much of that band's other catalogue) repeatedly since I posted this, I should have posted that one instead...
