Overview

Limited 200gm vinyl LP pressing housed in originally conceived - but never used - album cover. XTC's sixth album, Mummer was another turning point for the band as it marked their first release as a studio only band. The comparatively quieter/more considered English Settlement was very much an album of songs written with one ear for the studio and another for how they would work live. Mummer was different. Freed from the constraints of 'the road' this was XTC in widescreen - experimenting with songs, arrangements and the expanded sonic palette that studios can provide when there is no afterthought as to how to reproduce the material in a variety of theatres, university halls and other venues few, if any, of which were built with rock groups in mind.
