Best… II presents a deeper, more introspective selection from The Smiths’ catalogue, gathering some of their most celebrated album tracks, singles and fan favourites. Originally issued in the early 1990s, this 2026 reissue highlights the band’s sharp lyricism, jangling guitar work and unmistakable indie sound. Featuring essential cuts such as The Boy With The Thorn In His Side, Bigmouth Strikes Again, Ask and There Is A Light That Never Goes Out, this compilation offers a rich and cohesive portrait of the band’s defining era.
