Dukes of Stratosphear

XTC's alter ego, Dukes of Stratosphear, will release a career-encompassing limited edition boxset in December. The Complete And Utter Dukes will include the band's two releases (the 1985 ep, 25 O'Clock, the full length 1987 disc Psonic Psunspot) both on vinyl and cd, plus a 7 inch of Andy Patridge's "Tin Toy Clockwork Train", and Colin Moulding's demo of "the Affiliated" Besides the music, you also get a special 500 piece jigsaw puzzle and "play notes" which can be redeemed for a Dukes of Stratosphear t-shirt.
