Yep, no one else plays the guitar like he does, even if he's not one of the best guitarists, I think he's one of the most unque.

What about John Squire as a musician? I think he was a decent guitarist but he doesn't seem to get any credit.

Waterfall is a brilliantly put together riff.

right-track

That's what it's all about mate.
If it wasn't for The Smiths (Marr), I'd have Joy Division as the best AND most influential.
However, there is an army of Fall fans who would fight me to the death over that point.
*Not that I've anything against The Fall...far from it.

To be perfectly honest, The Fall scare me to death. I've desperately avoided Smith and his music because I've seen what it's done to some of my friends.
Once you're addicted, you're hooked for life. Worse than heroin I'd say.
And I've already got one all consuming addiction with Northern Soul.
If Fall fans are the same as N.S. connoisseurs (and I suspect they are) then they divide there music tastes into two camps...The Fall and Everything Else.

Not that it's a bad place to be. Just another place I could do without being.

*hastily added to avoid Urban's death threats.

Squire spoiled himself for me after his Seahorses wankery.

It sounds like a good job I've never heard them Squire's legacy hasn't been ruined in my eyes.

Urban Hat€monger ?

I've always known your position on MES, I know you already have your hands full with one musical obsession.

Having another one, well that's just showing off really.
