Notes: This is Geffen's release of rarities and b-sides from their repertoire of artists, The SUNDAYS included.  Basically, it provided fans a proper US release of the early b-side "Don't Tell Your Mother".  The booklet includes brief comments from David Gavurin on the origins/background of the song.  This album marks the fourth instance of the song being released on CD - this perhaps being the easiest/cheapest to track down.  The others include the "Can't Be Sure" UK 3" CD, the "Can't Be Sure" US Promo CD, and the Japanese "Reading" CD which are all relatively rarer and/or more expensive.  I believe this compilation was also released on cassette format.

Bottom picture shows the rear sleeve of the promo advance version of the CD.

On the side, make sure to get the US version of this compilation.  Non-US versions (the Australian version comes to mind) may have different track listings where The SUNDAYs are not included.  Heads up.
