The Smiths

Bought vinyl for daughters Christmas just loves it fast delivery highly recommend seller

Grand daughter loved it

The Smiths were, quite rightly, regarded as one of the best Indie bands of the 1980s with the irresistible combination of Morrissey's clever vocals allied to the sublime guitar work of Johnny Marr. This was the first of just 4 studio albums recorded by the group and all of them are well worth buying along with the superb compilation LP 'Hatful Of Hollow'

Sounds fantastic takes me back to my youth

very good

Arrived quickly - one of the corners of the sleeve was a little bent - not the end of the world but an important detail nonetheless. the actual vinyl is nice and heavyweight, well-cut and faithful to the original sound of the record. Although I enjoy The Smiths and this album in particular, there was one thing that I didn't notice - unlike the CD, the vinyl version doesn't have 'This Charming Man' on it. Obviously, this is in keeping with the original vinyl version but I thought for a remaster it was a bit of an oversight, considering it remains one of their most well-known songs from this period in the band's history. All being said, the album is an absolute gem. I needn't say anything about the brilliance of Johnny's guitar playing, the baritone croon of Morrisey's singing, the tight rhythm section, the lyrics, the artwork, the unique production, the great songwriting. Overall, very pleased with this purchase.

Perfect, i had no issues with this vinyl. came nicely packaged, nothing wrong with it, great for the money

In my opinion this is their best album as well as their first. This is the true smiths before they commercialised their style slightly to appeal to mass market- all their albums are good but this one is even more unique in style. Highly recommend xxxxx

A rocking debut by the Mancunians. Moz is in full effect and Marr’s guitar is at his jangly zenith. The rhythm setting of Rourke and Joyce is brilliant. With the exception of maybe three songs those here are fast enough. Opening track “Reel Around The Fountain” is slower but devastatingly brilliant. “You’ve Got Everything Now,” “Miserable Lie,” “Still Ill,” “Hand In Glove,” and “What Difference Does It Make?” are masterpieces. The production doesn’t add much sheen so instruments and the voice breathes. There isn’t cluttered sound like you hear on an Aerosmith album. The production continues in the minimalist vein harvested with great success by Joy Division. I’ve never liked the Smiths’ slower songs and, though very good, those here don’t do as much for me as the faster songs. When Marr is rocking, Moz is shrieking, and drums and bass are keeping it going the Smiths rock like most bands wish they could. The Bunnymen’s first album also rocks like this as do Gang of Four’s, REM’s and the Cure’s. I saw the Smiths once on the Meat Is Murder tour and twice on the The Queen Is Dead tour. Great times though I don’t remember much about two of the shows. Marr and Morrissey grew apart and at least one of them didn’t handle success well. Supposedly Marr’s becoming tired of Morrissey made him leave shortly after the Smiths finished their last album. A far too brief run. This is a great album. If you’re a rock fan and haven’t heard it now’s your time. The jewel case came in good shape and the insert is good with readable lyrics, though the print is small. Moz went on to a somewhat successful solo career marked by at least one very long break between albums and uneven quality. Marr’s been in at least two other bands since and I enjoyed an album by a band he was is a member of. Unlike Lennon and McCartney, they were much better together than apart. Dig it.

Brilliant purchased for my Grandson's vinyl collection. He was thrilled.
