Illustrator and graphic designer Andrew Swainson has been collaborating with Andy Partridge for over 20 years. As well as working on XTC and Dukes of Stratosphear re-releases, such as Skylarking and The Complete and Utter Dukes, he helped create the distinctive look of records including:

Powers, Partridge's tribute to abstract electronic artist Richard M Power, made to look like an early 60s paperback book
Warm Robot by Jen Olive, with its sci-fi fold-out sleeve
Gonwards, by Peter Blegvad and Andy Partridge, complete with Mexican-style loteria card game
Orpheus: The Lowdown, another Blegvad/Partridge collaboration, with its haunting X-ray imagery
Fuzzy Warbles, the gorgeous compendium of unreleased XTC rarities

In this episode, Swainson joins XTC fans Mark Fisher, Sarah Crookall, Laura Wade, David White and Peter Mills – not to mention a brief visit by Andy Partridge – to talk about his mesmerising designs.
