Alas, I missed The Smiths live also. Me, begging some friend of my mother to drive me to seem them play at...what age was I? 15? I got little response.
I always loved Marr more than Moz, that's just me. I just about worship Marr.
I don't remember the video for "November..." but I do think it was a pretty crap single, and not even the b-sides were really fit to stand beside his previous singles and b-sides! It was a downward turn for him.
A lot of people seem to think "Vauxhall..." was such a great album for him, but I don't share that opinion. After the glam rock one..."Your Arsenal", that was the end of Morrissey for me, or so I thought.
