Although the Byrds had disbanded in 1973, Hyde felt sure that there was a market for a collection like "Never Before", due to the renewed interest in the band that had been generated by their influence on the likes of R.E.M., the Smiths, and the

Because the album offered many B-sides (and the "Sheila Take a Bow" single) that had never been collected onto an album before, "Louder Than Bombs" became very popular on import with fans in the UK. To avoid high import prices being paid, The Smiths' domestic record company, Rough Trade, decided to release
