"Hits and Assorted Secrets 1984-1993" is a Greatest Hits album by The Northern Pikes released in 1999. Along with some of the band's biggest hits, the album included 3 previously unreleased tracks.
Following the tour in support of "Neptune" in 1993, the band decided to dissolve. However, in 1999 Virgin Records asked the band members for their input on a "greatest hits" package. To support the package, the band decided to do a short promotional tour. They found themselves enjoying the more relaxed independence of making their own schedule that they continued touring.
