The Smiths faded in with a harmonica intro on "Hand In Glove" and faded out with a harmonica outro on "I Won't Share You". -
Unbelievable quality. The definitive pressing. Bought in Manchester for 5 pound in a second hand shop 1992. -
This pressing sounds absolutely glorious. I'm speechless with how good this sounds... Incredibly black background, spacious, engaging and crystal clear. 10/10
-
never understood why moz hated this album,it is their best record from a to z,no bad track on it.it just flows in near perfection.
-
I wish this was Morrisseys solo record..It plays more like Morrissey record than a Smiths record -
