It's a different version to the final release. More abrasive, less comfortable and very good.
EDIT MAY 2013
- This edit would be better as a deletion - sorry folks I'm wrong on this one. My copy is not the one listed here - different tracks - I've been told that this one listed is exactly the same mix as the official release.

Can anyone comment on the quality of this Rhino pressing? I have had mixed luck with Rhino represses. Some are good, some are awful.

The remaster itself is solid and the packaging is faithful to the original. The cover art is nowhere near as high quality in comparison to the original, however, this goes for all of The Smiths albums. But it doesn't look bad, maybe side by side, however.Unfortunately my copy came a little scratched, not sure why I didn't return it then, but oh well...
