The The - small bit of good news

Post by Bobinblack »

A new limited edition (to 2k) single (one sided FFS) is out for Record Store Day and there is a documentary film on the way too. I'm not sure what their plans are re new releases and touring, Matt Johnson was interviewed on 6 Radio but i didn't hear it.
Think I'll go for a stroll in the trees.

'Uncertain Smile' is a classic.

A lot of classic songs, but for my money

I really liked some of The The's early albums. I don't think the later albums were very good though were they? Dusk was the last good one or am I wrong?

I liked some of his Hank Williams versions too.
