Hint #5: He has been a gravedigger and an employee-of-the-month doorman at a Magnificent Mile hotel, where he was stiffed by a future President of the United States.
Why did the new @Interscope DSS "Pet Sounds" One-Step use a 1972 version as the source instead of the original 1966 mono master? Is this the best-sounding "Pet Sounds" ever? Tom "Grover" Biery and I go down a @TheBeachBoys rabbit hole on the new Caropop. https://t.co/qGaOT5wGgJ

In this Caropop Pt. 2, XTC's Dave Gregory revisits the end of the band's touring days and the financial/musical impact. Which songs did he most regret not being able to play live? Could he still play โScissor Manโ? What's the state of XTC grudge-holding? https://t.co/RCfLv86wM4

XTC's Dave Gregory returns to Caropop to talk Live Boots, why the band played at such breakneck speed, what he thinks of the "bootleg" sound, which guitars he brought and whether XTC might have toured longer if Andy Partridge weren't so intense on stage. https://t.co/Gkn9CJxvtJ
