Greatest Hits (Thompson Twins album) album "Big Trash". Though Thompson Twins' previous album, 1987's "Close to the Bone", was also a flop, both singles taken from it–"Get That Love" and "Long Goodbye"–are included here. Thompson Twins' first singles collection chronologically compiles songs by the band's three different lineups (big band in the early years, three-piece group from 1983 to 1987, and duo in the later years). Thompson Twins released one more unsuccessful album after the span of time covered on this compilation. 1991's "Queer" generated two more singles: "Come Inside" and "The Saint." Though these were minor hits—and quite popular in clubs—neither would be included
