The Smiths - Meat Is MurderWin A Copy Of The Sound Of The Smiths
Rhino UK is pleased to announce a new dual format collection of classic recordings by The Smiths, The Sound Of The Smiths. This brand new compilation was done with the full co-operation of Morrissey and Johnny Marr. Morrissey provided the title and Johnny Marr personally supervised the mastering, their joint invlovement ensuring that this is the most impactful look back at the Smiths' extraordinary career to date.
The Smiths were the definitive British independent band of the eighties, releasing a remarkable series of singles and albums between 1983 and 1987 that was both commercially and critically successful. The Smiths laid down a marker for guitar pop-rock that remains unsurpassed. They were the inspiration for the guitar driven rock that dominated the nineties and for the spiritual revival of today's indie scene.
ilikemusic has ten copies of The Sound Of The Smiths to give away! For your chance to win, just answer this simple question!
The Sound Of The Smiths will be available as either a single disc or two disc collection. Disc one comprises 23 tracks and presents all the Smiths' memorable single releases, reinstating singles that were scheduled though eventually unreleased in that form (Still Ill and You Just Haven't Earned It Yet Baby) plus European only singles including Barbarism Begins At Home and The Headmaster Ritual. The core of disc one, however, is that matchless run of singles from their first Rough Trade 7 inch Hand In Glove to the posthumous Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me. The collection includes genuine classic hits such as Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now, How Soon Is Now, Panic and Girlfriend in A Coma which marked the pinnacle of that unique creative collaboration between vocalist Morrissey and guitarist Johnny Marr. Indeed, Morrissey's eloquence and proselytising was always matched by the compelling musicianship of Marr, bassist Andy Rourke and drummer Mike Joyce.
