Complete your XTC collection. Wonderful compilation of early XTC singles. Very nice sound quality aswell! If you're a fan of the 80s UK New Wave scene and want "something" by this sweet little band, this may be the release to get into XTC first place. at least that's how I did it

Waxworks: Some Singles 1977-1982 is a compilation album released by XTC in 1982. Though it followed closely on the heels of the successful English Settlement album and its lead-off single "Senses Working Overtime", it failed to crack the Top 40, perhaps signalling their commercial decline in Britain. All twelve tracks appear on the first disc of 1996's Fossil Fuel: The XTC Singles 1977-1992. It was initially released alongside a companion album, Beeswax: Some B-Sides 1977-1982.

Waxworks: Some Singles 1977-1982. Though it has been since supplanted by more comprehensive XTC collections - the most notable being Fossil Fuel, which repeats all of the Waxworks tracks plus the later singles - Waxworks: Some Singles 1977-1982 remains the classic compilation of the band's first, pre-studio-bound period.

Though it followed closely on the heels of the successful English Settlement album and its lead-off single "Senses Working Overtime", it failed to crack the Top 40 perhaps signalling their commercial decline in Britain.
