  Amazon.com: The Singles Collection: Music: The Specials   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
It was the last great Specials single, and the last to feature the original lineup, as they too would splinter shortly after its release.
Much of this collection can be found on THE SPECIALS, the first LP by the greatest Ska band of my generation.
The Specials Singles Collection spans their first album, through the "Ghost Town" single, to the Special Aka album "In the Studio".

  Singles (album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Singles is a compilation album by The Smiths, pitched as a compilation of previously issued singles.
It was released in February, 1995 by the new owner of their back catalogue, WEA (Sire Records in the United States).
The single boasted a newly designed sleeve by Morrissey (a still from the video of his current solo single, "Boxers"), but failed to chart.

 The Singles Collection: The London Years Music at Shop Ireland
Its purpose was to collect the singles released on the Stones' American and British labels London and Decca, and present them in order of their release.
The majority of The Rolling Stones Singles Collection, including all of the first two discs, is in mono (for reasons of authenticity, one would hope), as per the original release of each single, but the sound quality and definition would be hard to better.
The single mix of Brown Sugar was not quite the same as the one included on Sticky Fingers and the 45 was variously available in mono and stereo in different regions and/or pressings.

 Dropkick Murphys - The Singles Collection   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
This CD documents the Dropkick Murphys' early days, containing all five of their out of print singles.
Plus, there is the added bonus that all of these songs have their old lead singer [who, word has it, almost everyone liked better than Al, the new guy].
To everyone else, it isn't that bad of an introduction to the band, because there is the old belief that a band's only really good songs are on their singles...

 Making Time- Rolling Stones- Singles Collection The London Years   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Singles were probably more important and albums were released, often, to cash-in on the success of a hit single.
Furthermore, many albums of the 1960s did not contain any singles, quite unlike today when they are a collection of hit singles and little else.
The Rolling Stones were certainly a great singles band in the 1960s as this collection proves.

 Compare Prices and Read Reviews on Discography: The Complete Singles Collection - Pet Shop Boys at Epinions.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
From their 1987 sophomore album “Actually” are four singles from the album that explored Tennant’s issue of homosexuality, greed, boredom, and isolation.
The first single is the powerful dance track of “It’s A Sin” that featured a fast tempo of synthesizers and drum machine tracks while Tennant sings about his struggle with his homosexuality and his religious upbringing where it probably helped gave voice for those who struggled with homosexuality.
The new single “Was it Worth It?” is a house-based dance track that is a response to critics who often accuse the group of writing melancholy songs but this track doesn’t have a melancholy feel.

 Piano Overlord: The Singles Collection 03-05: Pitchfork Record Review
By single, Scott Herren (aka Piano Overlord, aka Prefuse 73) must be referring to his singular preoccupation with pop music's most tepid noisemaker, the synth.
The Singles Collection 03-05 blears through 16 tracks of generally flavorless broth.
Singles Collection cultivates material dating back to 2003, the same year Herren gave us One Word Extinguisher, his praiseworthiest product to date.

 Beastie Boys Message Board - Singles Collection
A bit premature perhaps, but if there is a singles collectoion 'in the works' I thought an early thread of speculation was an ok idea.
I was thinking they have released well over 20 singles, and if this is more of Capitols idea (which i think is likely), I reckon it'll be cut down to about 15 of the greatest hits.
Also, a singles thing seems top be what every other band does after being around for a few years, and I don't know...it kinda seems like a full stop with most bands.

 AC/DC Geordie - The Singles Collection
To celebrate and remember the power and sound of Geordie this newly released "Singles collection", draws from the band's hit singles to provide the perfect introduction to the sound of Geordie.
The album charts the history of the band from the first single "Don't do that" (September '72) up to the rare Brian Johnson solo release of "I can't forget you know" (December '75).
The Singles collection is a well-designed and well-packaged compilation that provides a historical insight into the sound of Geordie.

First impressions are good, the double CD is nicely packaged (in single CD case) for a budget release and the inner sleeve notes are substantial and well printed.
The remainder are all unreleased tracks/versions of both Spectres and Status Quo tracks, and it is here that the real works of interest for collectors are to be found.

 Barnes & Noble.com Music - Discography: The Complete Singles Collection -- Pet Shop Boys - CD
The compilation tracks their career from "West End Girls," their first big hit in 1985, through their October '91 single, "DJ Culture." Their songs are brilliantly structured, and the lyrics, though occasionally diminished by Tennant's deadpan delivery, are often ingenious.
Discography collects all the duo's numerous hit singles, including a handful of non-album tracks, in their original 7" single mix, which occasionally varies from the album version, particularly in the case of the Introspective material.
Presented chronologically, the singles not only demonstrate the band's increasing musical sophistication, they illustrate what fine songwriters Tennant and Lowe are.

 The Singles Collection : Music
That means that this collection hardly tells the whole story-- in fact, important albums like "The Kinks are the Village Green Preservation Society" and "Arthur or The Decline and Fall of the British Empire" are barely represented at all.
The Ultimate collection offers more, but if you´re new to the Kinks, start with this colection that captures their golden years.
If you just want a single CD of their sixties music, this one is as good as any you will find.

 Complete Singles Collection Review
Probably the worst song on the album, this is a slow-ish anti-war number that is generic, dull 80s rock.
Sorry, but you can see why this was only included on the 12" version of the single.
It's the only time most of the early singles have been put on CD, and it's a hell of a lot cheaper - and easier - than getting copies of the old 7".

 The Singles Collection
This is the European version of the US Bowie: The Singles, which features a few different selections and play order.
The Australian release features exactly the same song set, but was released as two separate discs, namely The Singles Collection 1, and The Singles Collection 2.
This collection released in 1993 is the UK version of the singles collection, which contains some different songs, and also never included the bonus Bing&Bowie CD.

 Fushigi Yuugi Singles Collection
I think seeing parts of the series helped, since it gave the songs more personality and meaning (these are mostly character singles, after all!) I recommend buying the original Japanese vocal collection or singles.
Since character singles feature 2 tracks each, the CD maker included 2 tracks from some characters, while including only one for others.
Artist given is the character and the seiyuu is in parenthesis.

 The Zombies: The Singles Collection ---Ink Blot Magazine
But their influence lives on all over the place, and after their psychedelic swan song Odessey and Oracle was re-released a couple of years ago, every power-pop indie band under the sun claimed it as an influence.
Their last single, the classic "Time Of The Season," was their biggest hit, but, sadly, it was posthumous.
This disc consists of the twenty-eight singles and b-sides they released during their tragically short career.

 The Limeliters - Complete RCA Singles Collection   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
This new album re-releases hard-to-find singles originally issued on 45 inch and "compact 33" vinyls, featuring the original Limeliters: Lou Gottlieb, Alex Hassilev, and Glenn Yarbrough, with a few cuts of Ernie Sheldon as well.
RCA's policy of drawing singles from shows and Tin Pan Alley was less astute, he believes.
Note that there are still more Limeliters' singles out there; this album only provides the RCA canon, and leaves out those published by Elektra, Warner Brother/Seven Arts, Morningstar, Stax, and West Knoll Records.

 Apparat: The Singles Collection - PopMatters Comic Book Review
Quit City is perhaps the most unusual piece in the collection, largely because of the relative obscurity of its origin: The Aviator.
But her fame continues to follow her, as does a ghost from the past -- the reason she left home for a life of danger and excitement in the air.
It's probably the best piece of writing in the collection, since it uses the original pulp genre as little more than a launching pad for the story, and relies less on its pulp origins than the others.

Africa Unite: The Singles Collection commemorates Marley's life on record just as the 2005 Africa Unite concert in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, on his 60th birthday (February 6) commemorated it on stage.
Then Bob was playing the song at the Roxy in LA and the audience were singing along and there was this huge transference of emotion.
