Overview:
Oranges & Lemons is the eleventh studio album by English band XTC, released in 1989. The tenth studio album was actually the Dukes Of Stratosphears second release 'Psonic Psunspot'.
The name of the album came from the old English nursery rhyme, also referenced in the song "Ballet for a Rainy Day" on their previous album Skylarking. Oranges & Lemons was XTC's second double album, after 1982's English Settlement. The band was sent to Los Angeles to record the album, and Paul Fox was recruited for his first producing gig.
