Number 53: They Sound Like XTC When They're Next to Me

With the end of a summer hiatus comes a new More Lost Time featuring a pair of UK power pop singles that echo the massive effect XTC had on England during the late '70s and two brilliant examples of Australian rock from the same period. Also, '60s garage rock from the Dennisons, a psychedelic classic from the Sands, and the closing of Hoboken nightclub Maxwell's is mourned via a rare live track by the Bongos -- the local live act that inaugurated the best known incarnation of the tavern's existence. This episode of More Lost Time was sponsored by a famous LP collection of classic rock available via mail order (hint: it celebrates the "freedom" of rock).
