The Compact XTC

The Compact XTC: The Singles 1978–1985 is a singles compilation album by XTC originally issued in 1985. It replaced Waxworks: Some Singles 1977–1982 as a greatest hits album, adding six singles issued between English Settlement and The Big Express. It took advantage of the compact disc's greater storage capacity to limit it to a single disc. It was superseded by the double-disc set Fossil Fuel: The XTC Singles 1977–1992, on which all eighteen tracks appear. Two UK Virgin Records singles are missing from this compilation: "Respectable Street" and "No Thugs in Our House", as well as "Take This Town" – an RSO Records released single issued from the soundtrack of the film "Times Square". 'International' singles missing are the re-recorded version of "Ten Feet Tall" and "Love at First Sight".
