Bona Drag is a compilation album by the English singer Morrissey, released on 15 October 1990 by HMV.
Instead of choosing to produce an immediate follow-up album, he decided to release a string of stand-alone singles in the hopes of achieving success in that market.
Morrissey explained, "People will view it suspiciously in England but not in the rest of the world where all those funny little singles were never released.
Bona Drag launched Morrissey's career in the US, and in many ways it marked the turning point after which he became less popular in the UK but achieved increasing success in America.
In October 2010, the album was reissued on the resurrected Major Minor label, with six officially unreleased studio recordings.
The 2010 re-release features the following additional tracks: The following changes have been made to the original album: ^ Shipments figures based on certification alone.
