Debut album from the Smiths, 1984: "Hand in Glove," "Still Ill," "Reel Around the Fountain" and "What Difference Does It Make?"
On order
The Smiths' debut went to No. 2 in the UK and announced one of the most influential bands in British music. Johnny Marr's jangling guitar changed indie rock forever.
Manchester's Morrissey, Johnny Marr, Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce burst onto the scene with a sound unlike anything else in 1984: Marr's shimmering, jangling guitar lines, Rourke's melodic bass and Morrissey's witty, literate lyrics and swooning croon.
"Hand in Glove" was their first single, "Still Ill" and "What Difference Does It Make?" are classics, and "Reel Around the Fountain" and "Pretty Girls Make Graves" show off Marr's gift for melody. The start of something special.
