XTC - Black Sea

On this date in 1980, XTC released their fourth album, Black Sea. It contained the singles, "Generals And Majors" (#32 U.K.), "Towers Of London" (#31 U.K.), "Sgt. Rock (Is Going To Help Me)" (#16 U.K.) and "Respectable Street", though this last track differed considerably from the single version. The album reached the #16 spot on the U.K. Albums chart and the #41 spot on the U.S. albums chart. The Swindon, England post punk/new wave band called it quits in 2006 when Colin Moulding expressed a desire to call it quits. Andy Partridge didn't feel that it would be XTC without the both of them.
