New official XTC bootleg series titled ‘Live Boots’ planned from 2026.
Live Boots LPs exclusive to Record Store Day First of the series kicks off with one of the band’s renowned gigs from Emerald City, New Jersey in April 1981 2LP set cut by Jason Mitchell at Loud Mastering and pressed on 200-gram audiophile vinyl New notes from all four original band members – Partridge / Moulding / Gregory & Chambers XTC – Live at Emerald City, Cherry Hill New Jersey, 17th April 1981 Listening to this electric performance from April 1981 – for all of its sonic imperfections seems to confirm that status, making it even harder to accept that, within a year, XTC would play its final gigs.
XTC at that time was a performing machine capable of creating megawatts of excitement.
Andy Partridge comments that “we were tighter than a firefly's fundament that night, even more astounding was the adrenaline-soaked speed we took every song at”.
Released exclusively via Record Store Day, this 200-gram heavyweight (double) LP is the first time the concert will be officially available on vinyl and is also the first of a planned series of XTC official bootleg releases titled ‘Live Boots’ & drawn from the band’s archives with minimal audio restoration undertaken by cutting engineer Jason Mitchell working with Andy Partrdige.
