Take Away and The Lure of Salvage are two sides of a single LP containing dub versions of XTC tracks released under the moniker Mr. Partridge, a pseudonym for Andy Partridge. It was released on February 29, 1980 on Virgin Records.
Andy took existing XTC songs and separated different tracks from the songs to give the experiment/addition of sounds of the track a whole new identity. The back cover reads
This used to be some XTC records. It is now a collection of tracks that have been electronically processed/shattered and layered with other sounds or lyrical pieces. All initial sound by XTC.
Additional sound/lyrics by Andy Partridge. Put and take by John Leckie and Andy Partridge on 10/10/79. Alan Jakoby was the tapir. Destructed/constructed at Regents Park Recording Company. If you liked Go+ then this record weighs approximately the same amount.
The cover pictures on the album's back and front are taken from a post card of Jayne Mansfield in a swimming pool. The figures floating on the water are hot water bottles shaped like her, on the back cover some of which Partridge scribbled out.
