That is a good one Roger,great even, but there are loads worth a mention. I've chosen the Cramps who are one of the best bands I've seen live.

There are very few examples in our history where two artists working together produce work of such absolute genius that surpasses, by an infinite margin, anything produced individually by either party, and which demands our attention.
The Smiths, effectively a popular beat combo duo, will stand in eternity alongside Wagner and Beethoven, as purveyors of poetry accompanied by exquisite musicality. There is something Wagnerian in the lyric "Some girls are bigger than others, Some girls are bigger than others. Some girls' mothers are bigger than other girls' mothers" |

Some "alternative" "comedy" troupe, utterly forgettable, apart from one chap who spent the session silently trying to eat a chocolate digestive vertically.

Nice to see a lot of Smiths fans here!
Sure was an unbelievable duo. Marr was so young when it was going on. Was he 17 or 18 when he start writing these songs? And yer man with the poetry. Well, it was outrageous how good his written word was! |

The Smiths : 'Barbarism Begins At Home", debuted on TV almost a year before ending up on The Smiths second album.

With the release of their first album I said The Smiths would be bigger than The Beatles, I was wrong but they were better.
