The definitive biography of XTC, written and compiled from hours of interviews with Andy Partridge, Colin Moulding and Dave Gregory. This is a remarkably honest and frequently moving account of the trials and tribulations that have beset the Swindon-based art rockers since their emergence in 1977.
As well as an exhaustive biography of XTC, this is also a cautionary tale of how to balance on the thin line between success and failure in the rock business. It is a detailed account of the professional and personal lives of three modern musicians and of Andy Partridge's resolute determination to succeed on his own terms and against the odds.
Fully illustrated with photographs from XTC's own archives and including a comprehensive discography.
