Description: Deluxe five vinyl LP set includes bonus demo/b-sides and a bonus live album. Digitally remastered edition. Widely considered to be both The Smiths' finest work and one of the greatest albums ever made, The Queen Is Dead has cast a significant influence over subsequent generations since it was first released in the summer of 1986. The album spent twenty-two weeks on the UK Albums Chart, peaking at #2. Across the Atlantic, it reached #28 in Canada on the RPM 100 album chart and #70 on the Billboard 200 chart. It has sold consistently well ever since and has received unanimous critical acclaim, with NME listing it as the greatest album of all time in 2013. "You cannot continue to record and simply hope that your audience will approve, or that average critics will approve, or that radio will approve," says Morrissey. "You progress only when you wonder if an abnormally scientific genius would approve - and this is the leap The Smiths took with The Queen Is Dead." Johnny Marr adds, "The Queen Is Dead was epic to make and epic to live."Tracks1.1 The Queen Is Dead (Full Version) 7.14 1.2 Frankly, Mr. Shankly (Demo) 2.18 1.3 I Know It's Over (Demo) 5.48 2.1 Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others (Demo) 3.57 2.2 The Boy with the Thorn in His Side (Demo Mix) 3.18 2.3 There Is a Light That Never Goes Out (Take 1) 4.25 3.1 The Queen Is Dead (2017 Master) 6.24 3.2 Frankly, Mr. Shankly (2017 Master) 2.17 3.3 I Know It's Over (2017 Master) 5.47 3.4 Never Had No One Ever (2017 Master) 3.36 3.5 Cemetry Gates (2017 Master) 2.38 4.1 Never Had No One Ever (Demo) 4.40 4.2 Cemetry Gates (Demo) 3.01 4.3 Bigmouth Strikes Again (Demo)3.06 5.1 Rubber Ring (Single B-Side) [2017 Master] 3.54 5.2 Asleep (Single B-Side) [2017 Master] 4.02 5.3 Money Changes Everything (Single B-Side) [2017 Master] 4.41 5.4 Unloveable (Single B-Side) [2017 Master] 3.55 6.1 Bigmouth Strikes Again (2017 Master) 3.11 6.2 The Boy with the Thorn in His Side (2017 Master) 3.15 6.3 Vicar in a Tutu (2017 Master) 2.22 6.4 There Is a Light That Never Goes Out (2017 Master)4.02 6.5 Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others (2017 Master) 3.16 7.1 How Soon Is Now?
