About this episode
Drummer Terry Chambers was the motor that powered XTC through its first five albums before frontman Andy Partridge broke down and abruptly ended the band’s touring days. Chambers left soon afterward, moved to Australia and was away from music for three decades—in part trying to pay off the massive debt from that cancelled tour. Yet recently he moved back to Swindon, England, and teamed with XTC songwriter/bassist Colin Moulding on a new band, TC&I. When Moulding pulled the plug on that project, Chambers decided to tour XTC songs anyway—in EXTC. With candor and good humor, he discusses his playing and reveals what it was like to be in and then out of XTC—and who's the biggest obstacle to a possible reunion.
