'Best Before 1984' is a compilation of Crass' singles and other tracks, released in 1986, including lyrics and a booklet ('...In Which Crass Voluntarily 'Blow Their Own'') which details the history of the band in their own words. The record brings together together controversial tracks like 'Reality Asylum' (in an alternate, extended version to the original album edition), 'Sheep Farming In The Falklands' and offering up both the 7" release of 'Do They Owe Us A Living?' and its last ever performance at the band's last ever gig in 1984 at a Miners' benefit concert in Wales. The album was named in reference to the notion that 1984 was the band's "sell by date", the year that they had often publicly stated that they would split up. Indeed, the band ceased gigging and recording in that year. This vinyl re-pressing features the original artwork and printed insert.
Also available: BEST BEFORE 1984 (2CD) (CD).
