Noteworthy Compilations
(click sleeves)




 

While I've tried to cover in this discography everything the band have released, I haven't included the many  compilation albums that include Go! Team tracks. There's absolutely tons of 'em and most just include tracks available on regular Go! Team releases, so generally I don't consider it a format worth cataloguing in any great detail. If you are interested in them Discogs has a good list here. However, here's a small handful that are worth noting for exclusive tracks, rarity/collectability value, historical context  or the good causes they support.

LABEL/COUNTRY: Rhino (US)
CAT NO: 521759
DATE: 1 February 2010
TRACKLISTING INC: Doing It Right
DETAILS: Soundtrack album for the Drew Barrymore-directed movie.
NOTES: Included here purely for the fact that Rhino Records in the US put this compilation out as a limited edition double LP on pink vinyl and we like stuff like that. Having got hold of a copy, the first disc was in a slightly marbled pink vinyl but the second is mispressed in a bright solid red vinyl, distinctly different from the first LP (we like stuff like that even more!). The movie also features The Go! Team track The Power Is On but this is not included on the soundtrack. The album also came out on CD in the US and Australia. Click the sleeve above to see the lot.
