Though it has been since supplanted by more comprehensive XTC collections -- the most notable being Fossil Fuel, which repeats all of the Waxworks tracks plus the later singles -- Waxworks: Some Singles 1977-1982 remains the classic compilation of the band's first, pre-studio-bound period. Originally, the album was packaged with a second record, Beeswax: Some B-Sides 1977-1982, later made available separately. -- Chris Woodstra (allmusic.com)
