This 1987 collection of Smiths album tracks, B-sides, and singles (and roughly half of Hatful of Hollow) is a worthy essential Smiths due to its scope and size. Twenty-four tracks in all, it includes hits such as the irresistible and bouncy "Ask," the Smiths prototype "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now," "William, It Was Really Nothing," "Panic," and "Hand in Glove." Lesser-known tracks like the lovely, piano-driven instrumental "Oscillate Wildly," the dark "Rubber Ring," and the weary "Half a Person" are strong enough to stand without the benefit of support from the hits. There are a few misses here, but they're hardly noticeable when surrounded by all the great tracks. Plus, a number of must-haves ("You Just Haven't Earned It Yet, Baby," "Stretch Out and Wait," "Half a Person") are virtually unavailable elsewhere. --Lorry Fleming
""Designed to whet U.S. interest while the Smiths completed their new LP, this dazzling assortment of singles and album tracks became an unintended epitaph when the group dissolved. The band's best songs are here, from "How Soon Is Now" to "William, It Was Really Nothing."'"

"I left the South, I travelled North, I got confused - I killed a horse. I can't help the way I feel. Oh yes, you can punch me and you can butt me and "
