Snap! is a greatest hits album by The Jam, released on 14 October 1983, one year after the group disbanded. The double-album includes all sixteen of the band’s UK singles, plus some B-sides, album tracks and rarities. Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic called it “one of the greatest greatest-hits albums of all time”. A shorter version, removing the 8 non-singles, was released as a single CD in 1985 as Compact Snap!.
