The band were great when they did those songs...but I didn't want to hear L...

Cruel Smile was released in the UK..pretty widely, I suppose it was just an export.

There were 3 editions of WIWC available...the one without Oh Well, the one with Oh Well and the 'tour' edition with some live tracks etc.
