Description

Softpack CD reissue of the best of The Smiths. The first disc consisted of 23 tracks and presented all the memorable songs of the Smiths, reincorporating the songs that were programmed later that were finally not published in this format ("Still Ill" and "You Just Haven't Earned It Yet Baby"), in addition to exclusive titles for Europe like "Barbarism Begins At Home" and "The Headmaster Ritual". The second disc has 22 other themes, including some of the most common themes, exclusive vinyl release themes and selected live recordings. Among the curiosities is "Pretty Girls Make Graves", produced by Troy Tate, "What's The World", a version of a song by the Manchester band James, recorded live in Barrowlands, Glasgow, originally released solo on the box, and "Meat Is Murder," live, from the 12-inch vinyl version of "That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore."
