I first heard of The Smiths through a book, believe it or not, "True Confessions Of A Teenage Wallflower" where the main character mentioned that he was mesmorized by the song Asleep by The Smiths. I took a big chance and bought a used Hatful Of Hollow, and almost immediately after I played it I found myself strangely drawn to it.
My favourite song on the cd is "Shoplifters of the World Unite".
I hope that more and more people will listen to this cd, there's just no way to describe this cd unless you listen to it, for some samples i suggest "This Charming Man" "Sheila Take A Bow" and "Shoplifters Of The World Unite"
