Cultural Facts:
-
Live Lore: Despite some copies being advertised as a 1984 recording, Personality Crisis documents The Smiths at Paseo de Camoens in Madrid on May 18, 1985, preserved from a soundboard source during the Meat Is Murder era. (Ear Candy Music)
-
Personal Struggle: Andy Rourke's heroin addiction became serious enough that he was briefly dismissed from The Smiths in early 1986 before being reinstated only weeks later. The struggle followed a friendship with Johnny Marr that stretched back to school, where the two had already been playing in bands together since their early teens. (Wikipedia)
-
Animal Rights: Morrissey has said he became vegetarian around age 11 or 12, influenced in part by his mother's longstanding vegetarianism. By the time of this Madrid performance, that childhood conviction had become the title and central argument of Meat Is Murder, turning a private family influence into one of The Smiths' most public causes.
