    I don't think he plays them all, but he still plays with him regularly.

    Some of those bands above I love, some just had a fleeting moment for me.

    It stuns me how people never mention Strangeways Here We Come. For me - and both Morrissey and Marr - it is by far and away their best work yet nobody ever mentions it. I dont like the whacky ones on Queen Is Dead, like Vicar In A Tutu or Frankly Mr Shankly.

    Strangeways is definitely their best album from a lyrical and technical standpoint.

    Meat is Murder is a good album, but the title song really weakens it.


    My personal fave is either Queen Is Dead or a bootleg called Unreleased Demos and Instrumentals.

    Fair point. I'm not removing those 2, as I do love them, but will add Strangeways. You're right, it's excellent.

    people have different opinions.
    More people like 'The Queen is dead' than 'Strangeways'
    Nobody is right or wrong.
    Just opinions.

    Queen is dead is my favourite Smiths album.
    Some of the songs on Strangeways seemed average to me.

    Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
    Velvet Underground - Velvet Underground & Nico
    July - Aftermath
    Love - Forever Changes
    Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left
    Scott Walker - Scott 4
    Amon Duul - Yeti
    Funkadelic - Maggot Brain
    Roxy Music - For Your Pleasure
    Patti Smith Group - Horses
    The Saints - I'm Stranded
    The Fall - Slates
    R.E.M. - Murmur

    But this could be different next week! When you have 20-30 years of being into music well it's hard!
