The Smiths
Markthalle, Hamburg, Germany
May 4, 1984
This is one of the best complete live shows of the Smiths ever captured on film or video. Together just five years, they produced only four studio LPs (and assorted collections) that mark them as one of a handful of the most influential and important bands of the alternative-rock, post-punk era. Had they not broken up before the release of their fourth and final studio LP, they would surely be mentioned in the same breath as R.E.M. and U2.
Note Morrissey's attire, typical for 1984:
- Large blouse held together by one button
- NHS specs
- Flowers in the back pocket
- Attitude to burn
Also note the dazzlingly original and subtle guitar work of Johnny Marr.
Recorded in Hamburg, Germany, less than three months after their debut album, THE SMITHS, was released (20 Feb 1984).
