The best compilation of the legendary british independent band. On CD1 there are all their 18 singles released between 1983 and 1987 plus some essential album tracks. On CD2 you find rare b-sides, live tracks, 12 inches, demos. That means in total 45 tracks and two and a half hours of playing time. The sound is excellent: Original Recording Remastered.
