Nice use of heaven knows there I'm sure you'll come up with the goods. Long as you mention how amazing Johnny's guitar playing is and how unique they are I'll be happy.

Nice read, although I was expecting a something/10.

I'm sorry I've let you down, but I wouldn't dream of it.
I believe I'd give this a 10/10 if I were to go with ratings, but I know I won't ever be able to decide the score for the other albums (and possibly compilations) I'll be reviewing, so I decided against it.

Get off the fence! You'll get splinters
Most albums of The Smiths are either 10/10 or 9/10, I'd give this a 9, however I'd give The Queen Is Dead a 10.
I'll be sure to keep my eye on the rest of the reviews

The other possibility would be me giving 10/10 on all the other albums, which would be a bit ridiculous, I suppose.
It's just the more I listen the more I find things I adore in each track from each album.

Now compare it to the Troy Tate sessions.
