Rag and Bone Buffet: Rare Cuts and Leftovers is a compilation album of songs by the English rock band XTC, released in 1990 by Virgin Records. It brings together single B-sides, BBC sessions, soundtrack contributions, the A- and B-sides of both a Christmas single released under the pseudonym the Three Wise Men and solo single recorded by Colin Moulding as the Colonel, as well as other obscurities.
Background
In an XTC catalog included with their 1992 album Nonsuch, frontman Andy Partridge explained the genesis of the project[1]:
"So the world goes urrph! grunt! shifts gears and in comes the new technology of compact discs. Suddenly someone says, but what about all those vinyl B-sides, pseudo-name singles, film tracks and giveaways that are going to be lost forever? Embarrassed that this is the only reason the Rag And Bone compilation exists, it then goes and gets great critical reviews. Sometimes I can't figure you folks out!"
