    "Not always great" says the man. He is right, so many bands have a few cracking songs, and the rest are average, or fillers. The Smiths` work was bullet-proof. Every piece of their vinyl I hung onto since hoarding it in 1987 - every disc and track is goldplated. Thanks Johnny.

    Great comment about his love for Wire's music, which sums it up for me, dealing with the surprise of a new Wire release and not ever knowing what to expect from them. On the other hand, I love his "To me, the idea of sticking with the one sound for 20-odd years is ... lazy, y'know?" (4:35) Could this be a jab at what Morrissey's been doing for the past 20-odd years?

    Always fun to listen to Johnny play and also hear him speak. Despite what he says and has done, his magical spark will always remain in his early work, and the band he created and disbanded. I think he should reference his own tunes here - they're way better than everyone he mentions!

      Agree! I think marr is just as much a musical genius as Moz, but it's strange to see him now tour and sing, especially sing Smiths songs. Just listen to how beautiful and different Strangeways , imagine what they what have achieved after that. I mean, all of their music is beautiful, but you know
