My Psychedelic Furs CDs #11

The Best Of The Psychedelic Furs (2021) (Edsel EDSL0085) (Double CD)

This is the newest Psychedelic Furs compilation which came out this year. Has two discs and has songs from seven of The Furs' albums, including Made Of Rain, their most recent album, and Book Of Days. The thing that surprises me is there aren't any songs from World Outside at all. You'd think the compilation would have "Until She Comes" on it, especially since it's one of the most beloved songs by The Psychedelic Furs.
