  1. The Smiths, Hatful of Hollow, 1984 on Rough Trade

    Another (like The World Won’t Listen) compilation album from The Smiths, including some BBC sessions plus other singles and B-sides. Came out in 1984 in the UK but was not released until 1993 in the US (instead Sire released Louder than Bombs for the US market).

    This LP includes “How Soon is Now?” as the b-side to “William, It Was Really Nothing” – the track was also on US editions of Meat is Murder. Also includes “Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want” which was also on the William single b-side.

    My copy, via Crossroads Records in Portland OR, is a 2011 reissue by Rhino on Sire labels, pressed at Rainbo.

  2. The Smiths, The World Won’t Listen, 1987 on Rough Trade

    This is a compilation album—the second of three—including singles and b-sides from 1985-1987. Most of these tracks also appear on Louder Than Bombs (a 2xLP), but two are different versions and two are edits.

    Fantastic collection of songs, including “Panic,” “Ask,” “Bigmouth Strikes Again,” “There Is a Light That Never Goes Out,” “That Joke Isn’t Funny Anymore,” and “You Just Haven’t Earned It Yet, Baby.”

    What teenager hasn’t felt “And I’ve got no right to take my place in the human race . . . “?

    My copy—via a record fair at Mill No. 5 in Lowell MA—is a UK issue from 1987, pressed by MPO. (Louder than Bombs was released in the US in lieu of this record, which was not released on vinyl in the US until the 2011 reissue series).

  7. The Smiths, The Smiths, 1984 on Rough Trade

    Masterful debut album by Morrissey, Johnny Marr, Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce aka The Smiths. Produced by John Porter and recorded at multiple studios in Manchester and London in 1983.

    Yes, I still listen to The Smiths even if Morrissey is problematic. This is a fantastic debut – not necessarily my favorite single Smiths record, but so much of what makes them great is already here.

    My copy—via a record fair at Mill No. 5 in Lowell MA—is a 1984 US pressing on Sire / RoughTrade, pressed at Specialty Records.

  32. The Smiths were *the* band of my teenage years. As I bit of an outsider at school, their songs and image really spoke to me. I've always loved the way guitar and bass intertwined and kept the songs moving.

    So very saddened to hear of the death of Andy Rourke. #AndyRourke
    There's a great obituary in The Guardian theguardian.com/music/2023/may

  34. #AndyRourke was a very important part of The Smiths sound, with a distinctive style.
    It takes something to go toe-to-toe with Johnny Marr. Andy had it, in abundance.

    Probably my favorite Smiths bass riff? Kind of obvious, perhaps.
