SWINDON music legend (butchers pronounce it leg-end, he tells
us) Andy Partridge kindly volunteered to answer a range of questions on music-related topics from our readers.
He first rose to fame with XTC in 1977 at the tip of the punk explosion and is still a highly respected member of the music community.
Everyone will remember hits such as Sgt Rock (Is Going To Help Me), and Senses Working Overtime and now, after 30 years, XTC and Andy have more than 30 albums to their name.
As well as being a singer, songwriter and guitarist, Andy has been a record producer, run his own label, been a broadcaster on radio, appeared on numerous TV programmes and written songs for other
artists, as well as penning film and TV music.
So scroll through the questions and answers at your leisure - you never know, you might learn something!

Q. Dear Andy Partridge... I know this may sound odd but you've appeared in my dreams. I once saw you driving a cab..why are you haunting me in my sleep?
Ms. Fresanmhictona
A. What we should be asking Ms Fresanmhictona is why are you hailing me in your sleep if you don't really need a cab?
I was merely trying to earn myself a few extra pennies by taxi driving around your subconscious at night thats all.Now would you kindly climb out if you dont need to go anywhere as I have a six
foot lobster playing a burning violin to pick up shortly. AP
