Query to Identify Compressed Tables?

Question

Is there a query to identify which tables are compressed? 
Isn't the following query limited to just the partitioned tables that are compressed? 
      SELECT DISTINCT NAME
      FROM   sysobjects x
      WHERE  x.id IN (SELECT OBJECT_ID
                      FROM   sys.partitions
                      WHERE  data_compression <> 0)

Hi,
Does this query helps
SELECT
SCHEMA_NAME(sys.objects.schema_id) AS [SchemaName]
,OBJECT_NAME(sys.objects.object_id) AS [ObjectName]
,[rows]
,[data_compression_desc]
,[index_id] as [IndexID_on_Table]
FROM sys.partitions
INNER JOIN sys.objects
ON sys.partitions.object_id = sys.objects.object_id
WHERE data_compression > 0
AND SCHEMA_NAME(sys.objects.schema_id) <> 'SYS'
ORDER BY SchemaName, ObjectName
