You might like this one Millea.

Besides being an excellent producer, Blake has a lovely voice.

Its hard to have too much enthusiasm for them when you know the singer used to beat up his wife quite a lot.

Johnny, this is a clip from last year at the same venue I was at last night. I'm really not big on tribute acts at all but the Smyths really are excellent.

That's brilliant to be honest. He is dead on. That would be a fantastic night out. The should tour the states.

Seeing them open for the Foals next Friday. Can't wait. Love them.

I read all about that. Not good but I don't think he's a monster or anything. I'm curious what the reaction will be when I see them.

My thoughts entirely. I'd add the Bunnymen, the Clash and the Kinks as great British bands.

The Smiths, though, produced SO MUCH astonishingly good material in a 4 year recording period that, really, only the Beatles (1962-69), Bob Dylan (1962-67) and David Bowie (1970-80) can compare in terms of being on a massive, sustained, almost blemish-free creative roll.

Agree with every word. You should read "A Light That Never Goes Out" by Tony Fletcher. Great biography.

Was going to wade in with Zep, but then re read your post, and the artists you mention were so creative, and utter trail blazers. Whereas Zep, although ace and massive, do have the accusation of, *ahem* borrowing from a lot of other bands still hanging over them.

Never heard a bad Smiths track.
