The Strangest Things is a compilation album issued by Enigma Records covering the ten year period immediately after Nelson had disbanded Be Bop Deluxe and is exclusive to the US market.
While the UK market got Duplex, the US were treated to this rather different compilation, which is best described as falling somewhere between Duplex and The Two Fold Aspect of Everything. The collection (issued on CD and cassette) mixed album tracks with rarities, acting as a sampler for the Enigma series of reissues, but offering the collector something beyond that at the same time.
There are no plans to reissue this compilation, although all but 4 tracks have been reissued fairly recently, or are expected to be again in the near future.
