Unfortunately you are wrong. It has been issued on CD on disc 2 of Loads / Loads more in 1995

I was going to mention that as well Delightful did indeed appear on that compilation as i bought it the day it came out. roc51 is only quoting from elsewhere which i believe was amazon as somebody has written a review saying the same thing.

Thanks for clarifying...it's been a long time since I've pulled out Loads/Loads More so thus forgot about this! Cheers!

TBH i had to check my copy too lol! I had a feeling i knew there was a couple of special tracks on that compilation. Nothing special on this new release by the looks of it so i'll stay clear until i hear otherwise. Glad to be of help. It's so easy to forget these things

It's a solid disc, as far as greatest hits compilations go. I've got a few of the original Happy Mondays discs from back in the day, but figured that this would be a good sum-up with some louder remastered versions of the bigger tracks.

I received Double Double Good in the mail last week and listened to it during a road trip this weekend. The disc sounds great, the album tracks are presented in their album versions, and the collection has a good flow to it.

If you're new to Happy Mondays, you could do a lot worse.
