XTC - Go2 (1978) [ALAC]
2001 Remastered CD Rip



Go 2 is the second studio album by the English band XTC. It was released on 6 October 1978. The United Kingdom version contained no singles, but the American and Canadian versions included the single "Are You Receiving Me?" (released 27 October 1978, the same month as the album's release). A promotional video was also made for the song. An earlier version of "Are You Receiving Me?" was recorded during the Go 2 sessions and was later released on the Coat Of Many Cupboards box-set. Other outtakes from Go 2 include "Sargasso Bar", "Us Being Us", "Instant Tunes", "Looking For Footprints", "Things Fall To Bits" and "Strange Tales, Strange Tails".

The album's full title is XTC's Go 2. The title is a riff on the Shakespearean imperative "go to" and of course it was their second album release.
