'The Queen Is Dead' is by far the greatest Smiths album produced, and that's saying a lot considering their extensive
discography. It's just such a perfect album from start to finish. Songs like "
Big mouth strikes again" and "A light that never goes out" never seem to grow old. And with tracks such as the album title track, "
The queen is dead" along with "The boy with the thorn in his side" all flow perfectly together to complete this lovely release. Classic Smiths!
This copy I found about 10 years ago at this record store near NYU called
Second Coming Records. Earlier this year,
Rhino repressed a few LP's from The Smiths back catalog and this release being one of them so a second pressing shouldn't be too tough to come across.
