If The Beatles Had Read Hunter...The Singles (1994) is a singles compilation released after The Wonder Stuff's original demise in 1994, which reached number 8 on the UK album charts.

The title referred to a quote (that) “if the writer Hunter S. Thompson had been a presiding influence over The Beatles, then they might have looked and sounded like The Wonder Stuff"[citation needed].
