The Smiths
Markthalle, Hamburg, Germany

This is the best complete live show of the Smiths ever captured on film or video.
Note Morrissey's attire, typical for 1984:
- Large blouse held together by one button
- NHS specs
- Flowers in the back pocket

Also note the dazzlingly original and subtle guitar work of Johnny Marr.
