I'm with you on this Adam, The Smartest Monkey, The Disappointed and Dear Madam Barnum for me.adam_neil wrote:I haven't heard all of XTC's releases however Nonsuch is one of the few albums on my iPod by any band where I've got most album tracks on there.
TBOPP isn't one of my favourites off the album, if I had to choose I'd go with Books Are Burning, Humble Daisy, The Smartest Monkeys & The Disappointed.

Peter Pumpkinhead is a very clever song and like a lot of XTC, probably a bit too much for the geral radio-listening public.
Good to see that "Dear God" was no. 10 in the most controversial songs of all time!
If Karen Carpenter had eaten Mama Cass' sandwich they'd both still be alive today!

I think its shit.
I tried to make him laugh, He didn't get the joke, and then he said I wasn't right in the head.
