Query: Essential Smiths collection

This is a great compilation of the best (arguably!) Smiths tunes for fans who do not own any Smiths CD's. It's hard to pick the best Smiths tracks, but this one has most of the tracks from the two Best Of collections.The initial "reviewer" of this album really needs to get a music encyclopedia and read up on the Smiths, because the review was awful and completely missed the sound of the Smiths. FAR from grunge, the Smiths came out of the New Wave era and scoffed at the wasteland of pop and rock music in the eighties, blowing off trendy music and combining a rock/ska/pop sound with dark, hilarious lyrics.Smiths fans can appreciate this compilation, and if you're one of the rising number of new Smiths fans, this CD is a great starting point.
