Forgive my ignorance on this topic but I've been out of the XTC loop for quite a while.
Other than Skylarking* and Psonic Psunspot from a few years ago, does anyone know if other albums have been or are slated for re-release as long playing records?
*I bought the 45rpm Lp and was/am in awe of the quality and clarity of the recording.

There was a 45rpm of Skylarking??? Likewise, I'm out of touch...But I doubt there will be many more XTC re-releases on vinyl. It would be very costly, I imagine.

Stickymoan, yes in deed there exists such a beast and a wonderfully sonic beast it is. If you ever come across it buy it without hesitation. Just read Mr. P's tweet about all the albums going to vinyl if recording tapes can be found. Fingers crossed - Yay!

I've only bought two new vinyls from the band; Oranges and Lemons back in the day and Skylarking a couple of years ago. Now with the prospect of more Lps on the horizon - and double sided to boot! - I'm feeling a bit giddy.

Anybody know of more current information about the new vinyls? yes, I know about the possible break in the space/time continuum when quoting yourself.

Ooooooo!!! Good news on the vinyl front. Check out Andy's tweet from 7 December: "Good news = Double vinyl set of XTC being cut today by the genius of the lathe,John Dent.You'll hear it next year." I should have enough $$ saved by then for those Wharfedale speakers I've got my eye on.

I guess GO2 was just re-released on vinyl. I think that the band is just trying to cash in on the success of the Back Porch Flag.
