Hi to you all out there in XTC land. Just a quick note to say that this weeks NME's lead article on the 20th anniversary of the release of the Stone Roses. name checks the Dukes not once but twice. Apparently Mani, the bass player, was determined to use John Leckie as producer because of his work with the Dukes.

25 oclock was also named as reissue of the week in last weeks Times magazine.
