A Son of the Rock

I never took to The Smiths. I couldn’t get on with singer Morrissey’s posturing and narcissism.

But I am glad that, on his death, the band’s bassist Andy Rourke has got the recognition he deserved. He was an integral part of the group’s sound.

His bass is well to the fore here.

The Smiths:

Andrew Michael (Andy) Rourke: 17/1/1964 – 19/5/2023. So it goes.
