''History - The Singles 85-91'' is a Compilation Album by the British Rock group, New Model Army , released by EMI in 1992 . The band later described the release as "a 'cashing in on the catalogue' exercise by EMI", and referred to the playlist as "an unremarkable collection of singles made 'desirable' by the inclusion of "Far Better Thing" and "Higher Wall"", "tacked on the end to make you buy all the songs you already had all over again". {Link without Title} The liner notes to the album '' Lost Songs '' ( 2001 ) indicate that "Far Better Thing" and probably "Higher Wall" were released without the band's consent. '' Great Expectations - The Singles Collection '' was released in 2003 with the band's permission, and covers all stages of the band's career. It is considered a better representation of the group's history. Completists may note that most tracks on the ''History - The Singles'' are single versions, and in some cases differ from the album versions. In 2001 EMI repackaged and Reissue d the album as ''History - The Best of New Model Army''.
