2. Jul 14,  · There's the "Smile" part of the album title, which is two versions of the Charlie Chaplin song that was released as a single in Japan. Also, we get a track entitled "Oh Well" and the fine "When I Was Cruel," which is a completely different song than the title cut on the album proper (which was labeled as "No. 2").

6. Instead British fans got the two-disc set When I Was Cruel — Collectors Edition, which contained the original album on disc 1 and nine of the Cruel Smile tracks on disc 2. Most of the others had already been available as UK B-sides, but the Cruel Smile versions of "Almost Blue" and "Soul For Hire" have yet to be released in the UK in any form.

8. The first long player to be released by Elvis Costello with his 'new' backing band The Imposters. But it was not really a new band, simply Davey Faragher replacing the out of favour Bruce Thomas on bass duties. 'When I Was Cruel' is a long, very long album - weighing in more than one hour.
