This month (well, Sept. 29, to be exact) marks the 20th anniversary of The Smiths final (and weakest) studio album, Strangeways, Here We Come. Although there are some great songs, weak maudlin tracks like "Paint A Vulgar Picture" and "I Won't Share You" seem to mark a band falling apart at the seams.
Before all that happened, and the Smiths reunion rumors began flying over the past year or so ($75 million? BULLSHIT), they played some fantastic live shows (or so I've heard; the one show of theirs that I was planning to see was cancelled due to Andy Rourke getting stung by a sting ray, or some such nonsense).
Here's "What Difference Does It Make?" performed live at the Hacienda in Manchester, England on July 6, 1983.
