    In Autobiography, Morrissey (rightfully) complains about them butchering the cover for the CD issue, Rough Trade claiming the LP cover wouldn't fit a CD. Morrissey then claims to have said how they'd managed it with Sgt Pepper, but this compilation came out in February; the CD version of Pepper wasn't out until June...
