Hatful of Hollow' is a compilation of The Smiths' earliest moments, with many tracks taken from John Peel sessions. This gives them a rawer feel to their album contemporaries but unlike many session compilations this works pretty brilliantly as an album.

It also contains early singles and B sides showcasing some of their very best songs such as 'Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now', 'William, It Was Really Nothing', 'Girl Afraid' and 'How Soon Is Now?'
