- From The Story of Rough Trade - "The record label needed commercial success but fiercely guarded its independent identity, built on the alternative credibility of its music. The perfect solution to all of these problems came from a pair of ambitious songwriters from Manchester."
Johnny Marr on the hustle being proactive...that's how you get on in life not by sitting there waiting for stuff to happen.
When I heard This Charming Man, I picked up a guitar and I really think that was the start of my maturing/modesty process. It humbled me, and inspired me to be amazing at the same time. In short, I was absolutely blown away. Nothing like it before or since.
'You hve to have a grain of hope, which is difficult to have'
Sage words...
The smiths, Stone roses, happy mondays, oasis, sex pistols all made music that wasn’t only great but was so good that people are still listening to it 20, 30, 40 years later. You can’t say that about any music today
Good music is timeless.
@@timotheusn.h.nakashona1001 well said. I totally agree.
Leave Club Tropicana alone! They're both good songs
just remember that 'right guy' had about 1000 of those cassettes. it's never been easy jakub.
Like the low fi video footage, of the rough trade office.

It's very true that Rough Trade kicked Go-Betweens *right off the label* to sign The Smiths
That is tragic. Along with The Smiths, The Go-Betweens are one of my favorite top 10 guitar groups from the 80's up to The Libertines.

obviously a man of discerning, cultured taste
Old Grey Whistle Test in 1983
you don't need a lot of promotion to make great music
Fact
Tell me about it!
never knew rough trade grew with the smiths
a grain of hope..which is difficult to have... lol oh morrisey, always overly dramatic and poetic about everything
Good times for change, fuck oasis , U2 , bla bla bla, so real, lucky enough to have seen them , landed I Sao Paulo many years layer and they loved them,

Name one bad smiths song or album
They have songs that are weaker (Vicar In A Tutu, Rusholme Ruffians) but every album is perfect.
Golden Lights.
Everything else is great.
There are bootlegs and soundchecks that are better than “Rank.”
Meat is murder (the song not the album) is pretty shit
Morrissey, Marr, Rourke and Joyce were the best.
likes his stripey t shirts doesn't he?
@romarina yeah, wut.
Simple Minds were utter shite
Simple Minds for simple minds
Aye they’re horse piss
Simple Minds rubbish? Butler do not know shite about music. before Simple Minds became PC Bono wannabes they were divine.
jimeas popoloiv Ah yes Bernard Butler knows nothing about music that must be why he’s a successful musician and your not
Bernard Butler's remarks are moronic and show how little he knows about the aspirations of the groups he defames. The Smiths are where the rot sets in, as far as i'm concerned. Compared to Scritti, The Pop Group, This Heat and Robert Wyatt, they were positively reactionary. Morrissey's subsequent support for the far right was par for the course.
