[edit] Band Biography

This is XTC's Psychedelic alter-ego. Strangely, when the Dukes records came out, they were doing better than the recent XTC albums at the time. Sir John Johns is Andy Partridge, The Red Curtain is Colin Moulding, Lord Cornelius Plum is Dave Gregory and E.I.E.I. Owen is Ian Gregory, who played drums on that record.
