Waxworks has been re-released on CD by Geffen Records USA. In other countries you can get The Compact XTC: The Singles 1978-85, which contains every track from Waxworks, with the addition of three singles from Mummer (“Great Fire”, “Wonderland” and “Love on a Farmboy’s Wages”) and three from The Big Express (“All You Pretty Girls”, “This World Over” and “Wake Up”). And now you can get Fossil Fuel – The XTC Singles 1977-92, which contains all of Waxworks and The Compact XTC and also includes the singles from Skylarking (“Grass”, “The Meeting Place” and “Dear God”), Oranges & Lemons (“The Mayor Of Simpleton”, “King For A Day” and “The Loving”), and Nonsuch (“The Disappointed”, “The Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead” and “Wrapped In Grey”). The sound quality on Fossil Fuel is much improved over the other two CDs. Also, Fossil Fuel features the original single mix of “Wait Till Your Boat Goes Down” which was not previously available on CD. Beeswax has been re-issued on CD by Virgin Records Japan
