The queen is dead really sets the mood for what s to come from the rest of the album with incredible guitar from johnny marr and plenty of humour yet naturally with a touch of sadness from morrissey s lyrics.
The queen is dead vinyl the smiths.
Vinyl lp album reissue gatefold 180 gram country.
The queen is dead was rhythmic strafing to the same effect as how soon is now but the devastating melancholia shifts into the sardonic tone that led morrissey to be labelled the pope of mope by the 1980s press an unfair term considering he is whip smart and slyly jovial on a good portion of the album.
I enjoy the live in boston vinyl.
I mostly collect performers such as the cure the smiths siouxsie and the banshees etc.
I don t think morrissey ever sounded better on a record than he does on the queen is dead.
I m not an audiophile but the records sound great to me.
