The queen is dead vinyl the smiths.

I enjoy the live in boston vinyl. Uk europe genre. I mostly collect performers such as the cure the smiths siouxsie and the banshees etc. The queen is dead was rhythmic strafing to the same effect as how soon is now but the devastating melancholia shifts into the sardonic tone that led morrissey to be labelled the pope of mope by the 1980s press an unfair term considering he is whip smart and slyly jovial on a good portion of the album.

I played it then immediately played it again then played several cuts then played the whole thing again and wondered why i d deprived myself of this lp for over 20 yrs. I m a small time vinyl collector. I don t think morrissey ever sounded better on a record than he does on the queen is dead. The queen is dead really sets the mood for what s to come from the rest of the album with incredible guitar from johnny marr and plenty of humour yet naturally with a touch of sadness from morrissey s lyrics.
