Synopsis

Album Description

Import-only collection of digitally remastered tracks from one of the most influential British bands of the '80s. While many of their contemporaries sold more records, The Smiths' musical legacy casts a much bigger shadow and their influence can still be felt in modern Pop and Rock music many years after their 1987 split. This 23 track collection features many of their most popular songs including 'Panic', 'The Boy With The Thorn In His Side', 'Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now', 'Bigmouth Strikes Again', 'How Soon Is Now?', 'This Charming Man', 'What Difference Does It Make?', 'William, It Was Really Nothing', 'There Is A Light That Never Goes Out', 'Please Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want', and many more. The actor featured on the album cover is Charles Hawtrey, star of many Carry On films. Warner. 2001.

CD Reviews

Best Smiths compilation to date!

C22 | USA | 01/29/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I am surprised to see so many comments on this release that are not on the positive side. This is the best compilation of the Smiths out there, plain and simple. It covers all of the classics and the remastering on it sounds fantastic! Way better than the 2 best of CDs out there now.

I heard this CD was not authorized by the band, but even if that is the case, the sound quality is too good to pass up. Why haven't they given the same treatment to all their releases I will never know!?

Never order from innuendo_entertainment

"I had to buy the CD that I ordered off of itunes. I ordered a brand new CD, almost every song skipped. The case was broken when I received the package, so it must have been used. I tried contacting the company several times, but did not receive a response. Why they would sell me a bunk CD, I don't know. It was money down the drain. This is my first AND last purchase from Amazon/innuendo_entertainment."
