I’m really surprised the high res download business model is still working. I guess places like Acoustic Sounds don’t have to spend too much on it but I don’t know who is buying HD Tracks albums regularly at their pricing? Maybe it’s mostly older audiophiles who moved from vinyl to CD to streaming?
For those other 2 XTC fans again...
Nonsuch
Nonsuch is the ninth in a series of XTC classics to be issued on 200g vinyl. 2020 reissue on 200g double vinyl in gatefold sleeve.burningshed.com
Yes. I have the two Dukes albums, English Settlement and Skylarking and they are among the best regular reissues I have from any band.Also looks like Oranges & Lemons is coming a month prior. Both great albums and all of the XTC REs have been good so far.
Yea, I’ve got those (for English Settlement & Skylarking I have e stand-alones from ‘19 and the boxes from ‘16). All sound great. The weakest have been the Apple Venus/Wasp Star REs but they still sound good.Yes.

Oranges And Lemons
Oranges And Lemons, XTC’s ninth studio album, originally issued in February 1989, arrived like a burst of audio summer at the end of winter. 2020 reissue on 200g double vinyl in gatefold sleeveburningshed.com
Burning Shed can have high shipping to the US but they are good to order from (have ordered tons of Porcupine Tree from them in years past). However all the XTC REs have made their way to US sellers.
Just need to get Mummer, Big Express, and Drums & Wires REs next!

That's awesome for indie stores. I bought my copy from the bands site though because it has a clear vinyl but also a magazine and rainbow metallic jacket which sounds cool.
People have already answered this plenty, but it's a really great album. One of his best, and personally meaningful to a lot of people in the '90s. But also the availability thing.This is going to sound like a strange question because I don't listen to much Tom Petty. But why is this the album that everyone has been hyped for? Is it a really great album or is it just the lack of availably?
Right. If you're a Petty fan at all though, you've probably been able to pick up a decent used copy for cheap already.Respectfully disagree. The one you want is Damn the Torpedoes, dangit. But Wildflowers is second.
