Shriekback - BBC Collection 1982-85 : FLOPPY BOOT STOMP

When Barry Andrews and the other members of XTC parted company many fans stayed with the Swindon collective and like me weren’t really aware what Andrews did next. Floppy Boot Stomp has looked researched and found the BBC archives on his next project SHRIEKBACK re-booted from a Dave sez source here from Silent Way at FBS . . . . . . . . they are really worth checking out

Dave sez . . . . 

"Shriekback were formed in 1981 by XTC founding member Barry Andrews, original Gang of Four bassist Dave Allen and guitarist/vocalist Carl Marsh. Joined by Andrews' drummer Martyn Barker in 1983, they played funk-inspired dance music and got frequent radio-plays in their key period of 1982-1985. 

Here is all I have, divided into two downloads:
Part One - BBC sessions and in concert,
Part Two - live in Holland 1983-1984."
