I love Andy Rourke's bass on Interesting Drug. When I'm walking the dog my brain goes on shuffle and the five-note descending line at the end of the second bar among my top 25 all time whistles.

The Smiths have (deservedly) been written about endlessly but relatively little has been written about how those amazing records owe their propulsion to a funk bassist hiding out in a jangly guitar pop band. Music writers are so focused on characters and biography they ignore the alchemy. The difference between great and blah are the so-called small details. The difference between marinara, salsa and ketchup is seasoning. #RIPAndyRourke #AndyRourke #TheSmiths #Morrrissey
