| Description: | Oranges & Lemons is the eighth in a series of XTC Classics to be issued on a 200 gram vinyl edition.
The album has been mastered by Jason Mitchell at Loud Mastering with input from Andy Partridge & is fully approved by XTC.
The album is one of the most requested vinyl reissues as it was only on vinyl for a short period towards the end of the first vinyl era and was, as a result, never available as a decent quality pressing and poorly presented in a single sleeve.
The sleeve has been re-worked to present the front colour image in all its psychedelic glory - and expanded to a gatefold to accommodate both the weight of the vinyl & the inclusion of song lyrics. - Originally released on 27 February 1989 in the U.K. Reached No. 28 on the U.K. album chart. Reached No. 1 on the Billboard college / alternative album chart in the U.S.A. in 1989. Reached No. 44 on the Billboard "Top 100" chart in the U.S.A. on 22 April 1989.Packaging: standard plastic jewel box case, clear tray, 12 page stapled cover booklet.
