Late 1992
European CD - WEA 9 26390-2


A collection of the Ride and Play EPs, though the sound quality is inferior to the original EPs. It was first released in the US but sold well as an import in Europe and the UK so it was eventually released there as well. The Warner (WEA) release has a different sleeve and was withdrawn soon after release when it was discovered that they did not hold the right to release it in Europe. The US cassette also has a slightly different cover.

"Sight Of You" is a Pale Saints cover that Ride recorded for their February 1990 Peel Session. "Deliverance" is mislabeled and is actually "Severance", a Dead Can Dance cover that Ride recorded for their September 1990 Peel Session. Sound quality is not great.
