The Cardigans – The Rest of the Best Vol. 1 – CD

The Cardigans compilation albums “The Rest Of The Best”, Vol. 1 & 2 covers some of the bands recordings released as Bsides on singles, soundtracks and as bonus tracks on Japanese, French and UK versions of their albums between 1994 – 2006. Both volumes are compiled by The Cardigans and remastered by Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound. The artwork is created based on photos taken by the photographer Martin Bogren, who worked with the band from the very beginning. Quote from the band about the product: We are delighted to release these compilations. Songs that for various reasons were left out of our studio albums. Now our audience can listen through all B sides in chronological order and it’s a pure joy to reminisce all the way back to 1993. It’s almost like a forgotten record, or rather four. We hope you’ll enjoy the 13 year ride!
