The Smiths’ career was short – they recorded their first single in May 1983 and Marr left the group in June 1987 – but influential. The quartet melded mid-1960s sounds with contemporary ideas from post-punk. Marr’s guitar playing was modelled on the jangle of The Byrds’ Roger McGuinn. He avoided clichés like solos and power chords in favour of intricate arpeggios and jangling rhythms. Morrissey was a punk fan whose odd croon alternated between keen wit and morose self-pity. Despite the album's title, the Singles versions of " Hand in Glove", " The Boy with the Thorn in His Side" and " Ask" were not the original single mixes. Similarly, " What Difference Does It Make?", " How Soon Is Now?", " That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore" and " Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me" were the full-length album versions, that are on the original 12´ singles, as opposed to the original single edits.
