U.K. Squeeze is the international title of the first studio album released by British group Squeeze. The album title was simply Squeeze in the United Kingdom, but in the United States, Canada, Australia and other countries the album and the band were marketed under the name U.K. Squeeze to avoid confusion with a similarly named American group.
The LP was produced by John Cale, except for "Take Me I'm Yours" and "Bang Bang" (oddly the only singles released from the LP). Those songs were produced by the band.
In 1997, the CD was released in the UK with two bonus tracks, as part of the Six of One... box set. The set included the band's first six studio albums, each digitally remastered. These CDs were made available for individual purchase in 1998.
