The record
Unoff. release.
Title: The Smiths - The Old Guard: BBC Sessions
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: N/A, Alternative, Jangle Pop, Manchester, England 6/26
Condition: New (BC) | Members: Morrissey S (59' - ), Johnny M (63' - ), Andy R (64' - 23'), Mike J (63' - )
Cultural Facts:
-
Personal Struggle: Andy Rourke’s heroin addiction became band business in the ugliest way: Morrissey reportedly fired him by postcard in 1986 before he was later brought back.
-
Band Drama: The Smiths’ breakup left a long legal shadow, with Mike Joyce later suing over royalties and exposing how badly the “sensitive outsider” band handled money and credit.
-
Scene Ecology: These BBC sessions catch The Smiths in their sharpest early form, when Manchester gloom, Johnny Marr’s bright guitar, and Morrissey’s wounded sarcasm were still becoming indie-rock law.

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
