Digitally remastered release from XTC's Andy Partridge, Colin Moulding, and Dave Gregory masquerading as 'lost' '60s psych band called The Dukes of Stratosphear. This 1985 mini-album was produced by John Leckie (Swami Anand Nagara) and The Dukes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe story is a familiar one. XTC, as a non-touring band, between the recording\/release of \u003cem\u003eThe Big Express\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eSkylarking\u003c\/em\u003e, adopted the alter egos of The Dukes of Stratosphear and set about writing and recording \u003cem\u003e25 O'Clock\u003c\/em\u003e, partying like it was 1967 and stereo phasing had just been popularized. With a clutch of songs as tuneful as Sgt. Pepper's, guitars cranked up like a Kinks Pye b-side, the collective knowledge of a bunch of psych's keenest fanboys and the engineering skills of John Leckie... The resulting album sits somewhere in the pantheon of greatness between \u003cem\u003eEvolution, Their Satanic Majesties Request \u003c\/em\u003eand\u003cem\u003e S. F.
