500 Greatest Albums of the 1980s ... Ranked! # 10 The Smiths - Hatful of Hollow

 


This is a joy.  People don't realise. What it felt like to hear these songs as they came out. But listening to this as I prepare for my working day I realise that these are among the most quotable and enduring sing along anthems of my entire life. The insecurities and dark but reilient recesses of the human imagination.The human soul. Frailty and resolve. Self pity sure. But self pity as armour. Pride.Oh and they're funny ! The Smiths changed the game. As with Bowie, their influence and effect was indelible.Argue about their best record if you really need to. But lusten to them all.
