CD Reviews

Wonderful concept, a little rushed on the execution
Leif Sheppard | United States | 12/30/2003
(4 out of 5 stars)

"The first ten, arguably the best, singles of Moz's solo career all gathered in one nifty box - what a wonderful idea! His b-sides are every bit as intriguing and engaging as his singles and this set proves it.



The set begins with a-sides from "Viva Hate", through "Kill Uncle" and is spot-on concluded with "Pregnant for the Last Time". This collection includes every track that later ended up on "Bona Drag" along with a few other hard to locate b-sides such as "Get Off The Stage" and "Skin Storm". One special note, the "Everyday Is Like Sunday" single includes the uncut full-version of "Will Never Marry" which is a must have if you only own the "Bona Drag" cut.



I must concur with other reviewers who commented that the lack of any liner notes or informative booklet is quite odd. That would've been greatly appreciated by the fans and also a chance to shed some light on some of his more unknown, yet just as magnificent b-sides such as "Will Never Marry" and "I Know Very Well How I Got My Name". Though you must concede it would be awfully uncharacteristic of Morrissey to do such a thing as liner notes - the closest he's come to that was writing the notes for the "Under the Influence" set (which contained nothing other than his feelings on *other* artists music).



However, one of the prettiest aspects of this set is that each cd sleeve perfectly duplicates the original artwork. Just a note for purists, this collection has all the UK versions of the sleeves - some of which are slightly different than the US versions."
Satiate the need

"it's a bit too much to see all of this here, like this. i love these songs. b-sides have always been m's strong suit and now you can get you hands on the whole lot. plenty of these cds were hard to get when they first came out, so i suppose this is a wee bit of a service. great songs. sort of sad packaging. any morrissey fan could have done better at home with a few craft products."
A steal at twice the price!

"This box-set is of the CD singles released in the UK for this time period. You can find most of the songs from these discs on Morrissey's albums and collections, so the b-sides are the gold in this collection. The first single in the collection is the best CD single that Morrissey has ever released. The songs "I Know Very Well How I Got My Name" and "I'll Never Learn" are a fantastic start to the b-sides of Morrissey's solo work. I have always thought that b-sides have been the best work of many artists and I was pleased to hear that it runs true with this collection as well. If you are a fan of Morrissey, not even a rabid one, this collection is a must have. Order it new from one of the vendors in the new and used area of this web site for a much better price."
