I liked XTC and got talking about them with a fellow music fan,but we couldn't agree if they were a pop group or a rock band ? I'm listening to Alice Cooper at the moment on Planet Rock and he's just played Jet by Wings.Which surprised me as I'd say that was pop ?

It is, I would say.

Hard to categorise XTC. They were part of the new wave/punk movement.

A lot of their songs are pop, but they could also be avant garde and very alternative too.

Very hard to pigeon hole stuff at times.

Did you know Colin Moulding, XTC's bassist, wrote Making Plans for Nigel & Generals and Majors, not Andy Partridge.
