Few artists can release five ‘best of’ compilations and actually get away with it, but if you’re name is [tag]Morrissey[/tag] you’re not just ‘any artist’, as his latest and sixth compilation record “Greatest Hits” is set for a early February release. The best of mostly includes hits from his post ’00s albums, like “You Are the Quarry” or “Ringleader of the Tormentors,” some tunes from the ol’ Smith days and also two bran new tracks as well: “That’s How People Grow Up,” the records first single and “All You Need Is Me.” How very true.
