The Smiths - 18 How Soon Is Now (Nottingham 86)

[UnderTheAffluence]

What a great t shirt!

[bananafish16]

i love his dancing....

[mrsolofeo]

Smiths would just be a shell of their former selves.

Just enjoy the old videos.

[kolokidi]

i love this guys guitar sound

[specialist169]

More chance of monkeys flying out of my arse than The Smiths reuniting I'm afraid, especially after the long legal battles between Rourke & Morrissey. I love them dearly, but I wouldn't want them to neither. Leave them where they are now, in their glorious past !

[Zepster77]

LEGEND

[theelefantofsurprise]

i would give my eye teeth to have been there... that's so fucking heavy

[stevenuuu1212]

Morrissey is a fucking legend. So good in this

[damien19735]

Totally epic....

[Philmod68]

Very NICE work Johnny! : )

[posyanne64]

He was uber cool lol!! I loved him :)

[TheWordBand]

A Reunion would solve everything. what an idea.

[iguisard]

Use reverse reverb, into another reverb unity, into two vibrato pedals set both pedals to just about the same speed, so the sound comes in and out of phase. What you get is the famous sound of The Smiths.

[ernestot1000]

what a great band the smiths were unlike no other.

[rodoorsfopeyote]

Freddy Mercury had a terrific voice....but Morrissey is the best frontman ever... I SAID >=D

[pearlpitt]

this is what i would call a LIVE perfrmance..

fuckin epic.

[zigetgoo]

cool extravaganza!

[11981198]

yeah, it's tip-top just hearing Johnny free-wheeling, love it!!

[JMICHEL323]

What pedals is Johnny MArr using???????

[guyfidelity]

@JMICHEL323 there is a great Guitar Player Magazine interview from the early 90's i think that he talks about all his gear in. This one is heavy Fender vibrato and a legendary Eventide harmonizer. Johnny was also into old school space echo in a big way.

[venom3114]

That guitar just WAILSSSSsss with a voice of it's own!

[miguelcontrol]

perfecto!

[jarvizcocker]

it always surprises me how presh morrissey's dancing is

[isaacteli]

Howw!! this cool wow!! vientos, eah!! to song clasic...

[RTL]

I see all these so called "artists" and their twenty backup dancers staging choreographed dances these days. Nobody screws with Morrissey when he's jamming to Marr's fine tunes.

[karziflora]

ROURKEY MY BASS HERO.....LOVE U!!!

[wyominghusker]

A Smith's reunion would be answered prayer.

[pinkfrost89]

it will never happen. One thing for sure about Morrissey is he is principled. He will never forgive Joyce for the lawsuit.

[Koehnson]

@wyominghusker: Better chance of getting the Beatles together.

[rounick]

@wyominghusker Will never happen.. And would be kinda sad,really. Let the greatness intact.

[ThristanBR]

Como eu queria estar ali na frente..

[repelghosts]

Seen them 4 times met 'Morry' 4 times...Wonderful individual...very....sincere,v­ery sensitivfe it seemed...met Bowie prior so now I can die!

Thanks for this as I am leaving for vacation to the Bahamas...no responses will be answered until September/09 upon my tanned return!

Dr.Jaeger

T.O. Canada.

The best city in the fucking world!

[pintofkimberley]

I remeber this, 'cos I was there!!

A good night out with an ex-girlfriend, from the RCH, to Langtrys and then spoilt by an idiot in Fagans, but a good night none the less.

[Sunflower0122Z]

Morrisey is wearing a James Dean shirt too. Saw them on the last tour that year in Boston. They open the show with this song, it was killer!

[BorlandRIP7]

THE SMITHS at the peak of their career..thanx

[bigD260]

this is rare as fuck, class vid dude

[haroof]

26 year old moz.

beyond badass.

[bodczar]

I think maddona & a beer company bought this riff off morrissey?!

[dazza2610]

manchester bands kick arse

[THALIDO]

They look so young in this!

[ABTE67]

craig gannon in the 2second guitar

[RTL]

Marr's solo here is EPIC!

[beenhereforhours]

This is the one tune where the music transcends the lyrics, thats not to say the lyrics are shit in any way.

Probably the best tune ever made after Kashmir and A Day in the Life.

[Wallyjrii]

That's funny you said "Kashmir" because I was just thinking this song is better than anything in the LZ catalog, then I thought, well, Kashmir was equally good, I suppose. I would assume far fewer people know of this song.

[PhilPlay]

Who mentioned Kashmir?

[Voxac100b]

Its a classic guitar rift.

[CarMoves]

Miss the 80's -- saw them twice at Irvine Meadows

[NicktheBarber31]

sounds great but you can hardly hear morrissey.

[Voxac100b]

Your'e right I have seen lots of Smiths live footage I know its archive material but they always seemed to be under amplified. The balance mix here isn't right but it's still a cracker performance.

[ord1711]

so AWESOME!

[22018]

Marr with solo's? amazing

[jcxb102]

Morrissey... please forgive and forget.. Have a "Big Reunion" for the fans.. Do it now (while all of you guys are still alive)before it's too late. Learn from the Beatles...

[kusraback]

Gosh U R so right, i wish Moz will listen to U. I doubt it. Thank god for all the great music they left in this world.

[nunzioforpresident]

you're right,but morrissey have to much self pride,i don't think reunion project have a chanche to see the light (sorry for my english,i'm italian).

[therabbit27]

Johnny Marr is amazing.

[Voxac100b]

Awesome guitarist.

[Boydchenko]

Viva Morrissey....

[FarbrorBergman]

[robmad]

[cirEgnimrahC]
