Suedehead: The Best of Morrissey is a compilation album by English singer Morrissey, released on 8 September 1997. It contains material released during Morrissey's EMI period.

Content

[edit]

The album's material ranges from 1988's Viva Hate to his 1994's Vauxhall and I album, also containing his 1995 non-album singles "Boxers" and "Sunny". Although Suedehead predominantly contains singles, it also has several rarities including "Pregnant for the Last Time", a cover of "That's Entertainment" originally by The Jam and the complete version of "Interlude", a duet with Siouxsie of Siouxsie and the Banshees. It has since been deleted from the EMI catalogue as of 14 December 2010 alongside Beethoven Was Deaf and World of Morrissey.
