500 Greatest Albums of the 1980s ... Ranked! # 69 The Smiths - Strangeways Here We Come

 


It's Saturday morning. So I'll go and get myself a cup of tea. Open a packet of biscuits and listen to  Strangeways Here We Come the last Smiths album, before I have my bath. One of life's small pleasures.

It's good to listen to The Smiths.Always. I'm not particularly interested in discussing which are their best records and moments. They're all damned good with some minor lesser moments.  A rather sad narrative. But any narrative where Morrissey figures will inevitably have some sad moments. Life has its sad moments. Haven't you been paying attention. 

  But they're a band wuth a cool magical energy and grace. Still. An ability to transport me back in time to moments of my youth. Those years when they ruled the land. Love, Peace & Harmony !
