Prairie Prince’s drumming is amazing - I am not a percussionist, but I have yet to meet a drummer that doesn’t think he is top shelf.

Got Senses Working Overtime as an earworm on a walk today. So XTC English Settlement it is. Beautifully textured music occasionally pastoral at other times state of the nation gloomy. Blimey 40 years old this year - suspect I haven’t played it for two of those decades!
Fantastic recording, great quality.
Just Finished…

Kasam Paida Karnewale Ki - OST (Bappi Lahiri/Anjaan).
1980s Bollywood soundtrack. Great blend of synths, electronics, surf guitars, Hindi singing and those more traditional Hindustani strings from an earlier film era.
Brilliant album. Still my favourite Underworld.
