Has XTC actually broken up?  My friend has said that he has heard this
to be true.

Also, does anyone remember a solo album by Andy Partridge of XTC, with
a swimming pool on the cover filled with inner tubes and/or inflatable
dolls or something like that?  (It's been a while.)  A note on the cover
says:  "If you liked Go + this album weighs about the same".  "Go +" was
a six-song EP containing weirded-out "dub"/"scratch" versions (before
such labels existed) of various songs from the "Go 2" album, including
"Dance with Me, Germany" ( = "Meccanik Dancin'"), "A Dictionary of Modern
Marriage" ( = "Battery Brides"), "Beat the Bible" ( = ? ), etc.

Anyway, I *do* like "Go +" very much, so I was wondering if anyone of
the numerous XTC buffs out there either own the Andy Partridge solo
album in question, have heard it, or have seen it available recently.
Any information and/or opinions would be appreciated.
Statements like "If you liked Go+ this album weighs about the same" don't
really reveal that much...
