Singles Collection (2CD)

Limited UK two CD edition of this 2008 compilation from the Liverpudlian sextet including a bonus CD featuring new tracks, demos, live versions and covers. Singles Collection is the sixth album to be released from The Coral, following four studio albums and one B-sides and rarities compilation. The band have notched up five Top Ten albums (including a Number One for their sophomore album Magic And Medicine), over one million record sales and numerous hit singles, all while the band members are still all in their 20s! Equal parts Mersey Beat, the Doors, Dylan, and Oasis, The Coral's sound was unique and diverse enough to generate column inches in the fickle British music press. Singles Collection once again demonstrates the strength of their songwriting, their ability to make the simple sound divine and the complex understandable. Features the new single 'Being Somebody Else'. 32 tracks. Sony/BMG. 2008.
