From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Testify is a US-only compilation album released by British house music band M People. It contains the three tracks that the band recorded for their British compilation album The Best of M People the previous year, and the artwork is taken from the photographs used for that album. However, it contains two album tracks from Fresco - and three remixes that originally appeared on The Best of M People's accompanying promo remix collection - in place of singles from Northern Soul and Elegant Slumming. In addition, four songs are replaced by different edits. It is notable for being the only place that the original versions of "Testify", "What a Fool Believes", the single mix of "Search for the Hero", and the single edits of "Angel St." and "Just for You" are available on vinyl, as its British equivalent was released only on CD and cassette. The version of "What a Fool Believes" is exclusive to this release, since an edit appears on The Best of M People.

"Sight for Sore Eyes" is labelled as the 'M People master mix' but this distinction is only necessary in the context of the single release, as the single edit that bore the unqualified song title on the 1994 release, and The Best of M People, is not the version that appears on the song's parent album Bizarre Fruit, whereas this is.
