The Queen Is Dead (3CD/1DVD)

Widely considered to be both The Smithsâ€™ finest work and one of the greatest albums ever made, â€˜The Queen Is Deadâ€™ has cast a significant influence over subsequent generations since it was first released in the summer of 1986. Now Warner Bros. Records can confirm details of a newly mastered and expanded version of the album that will be released on 20th October.

Deluxe 3CD / 1 DVD box set â€“ featuring the 2017 master of the album; additional recordings featuring demos, b-sides and alternative versions; the â€˜Live In Bostonâ€™ album recorded at the Great Woods Center For The Performing Arts on 5th August 1986; and a DVD featuring the 2017 master of album in 96kHz / 24-bit PCM stereo and â€˜The Queen Is Dead â€“ A Film By Derek Jarmanâ€™.
"You cannot continue to record and simply hope that your audience will approve, or that average critics will approve, or that radio will approve,â€ says Morrissey. â€œYou progress only when you wonder if an abnormally scientific genius would approve â€“ and this is the leap The Smiths took with The Queen Is Dead."Â
Johnny Marr adds, â€œThe Queen Is Dead was epic to make and epic to live.â€
