Limited blue vinyl LP pressing including bonus colored seven inch vinyl single, housed in gatefold sleeve. The Waltones formed in Manchester in 1986 pre-Madchester indie. They were Alex Fyans (Drums), Mark Collins (Guitar), James Knox (Vocals, Harmonica) and Manny Lee (Bass, Backing Vocals). They recorded four singles, an album and a Peel session. After the band's split, Mark Collins the guitarist went off to join the Charlatans. The Waltones may well have gone on to have more success but, unfortunately, despite gaining much street cred and selling out their LP 'The Deepest', the distributor Red Rhino went bankrupt. The new distributor APT refused to take on Red Rhino's debts and thus no re-press of the album was undertaken. Included in this compilation is the Deepest album and all of the a and B sides of their singles. She Looks Right Through Me is on the bonus single along with the B sides Special 20 and Burning Conscience. Spell It Out, I've Got Nothing, Everything's Just Fine, The Deepest, Don't Understand, When It All Turns Sour, She's Everywhere But Here, Smile, A Million Different Ways, Rainfall, What's Going Wrong, I've Got Nothing, Downhill, Closest to, Failing in Love, She Looks Right Through Me, Special 20, Burning Conscience
