The Smiths packed a remarkable amount into five short years, and Best... I gathers fourteen of their finest moments on a single 140-gram LP.

First issued in 1992, after the band's catalogue had passed to Warner, it arrived alongside a companion second volume and offered a quick route into a body of work that had already shaped a generation of British guitar music. Rather than running chronologically, it shuffles singles and fan favourites into a sequence that plays like a mixtape from a devoted friend.

"This Charming Man" opens with Johnny Marr's chiming guitar at its most glittering, and "How Soon Is Now?" stretches into a tremolo-soaked haze that still sounds like nothing else. Morrissey's wit cuts through "Girlfriend in a Coma", a jaunty tune wrapped around a darkly comic lyric.

Andy Rourke's melodic bass and Mike Joyce's drumming keep everything nimble and propulsive, a rhythm section too often overlooked, and the album closes with "Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want", barely two minutes of pure longing.

For newcomers it is the ideal starting point, and for longtime fans it is a reminder of how many perfect singles one band could produce in such a short time, and how fresh they still sound.
