The album was released in 1996. It was compiled by the French art criticism magazine Les Inrockuptibles and released to celebrate the 10th anniversary of The Smiths’ 1986 album, ‘The Queen Is Dead.’

10-track compilation with the Trashcans covering ‘I Know It’s Over’ amongst others. This was also released on cassette. Sleeve pictures are from ‘Kes’, a film by Ken Loach.
