Besides Smiths, what's the best Johnny Marr stuff you can recommend? preferably albums and not bands/projects.
His solo stuff sucks

yeah that's what i heard
>>69865826
He's more of a great single song guy than album guy.
I'll give you what I think are at least 8s post smiths, they are different genres, and the production is corny/cringy on some (Electronic).
The Focus is more on an actual co-writer or writer, rather than a side man. They are Electronic, The The, and him solo. AVOID the first solo outing, Johnny Marr and The Healers, it is just awful.

ok, thanks anon
>>69866635
also, avoid any Electronic album after the first one.
He released his 2 solo albums within a year of each other, if he had waited and picked just the best songs from each (and edited them down) he could've had an 8.5 to 9 album. But as it stands, he has one 5.5 and one 6.5.
>>69866761
ok. and what about his stuff with modest mouse?
>>69866826
Its pretty good.
This is my favorite song off that album, Johnny's on the left channel pretty much on the entire album.

he did an album with the cribs too, its also pretty good.

>>69866826
wrong link on the cribs, listen to this song first.

I'll give another recommendation to the first Electronic album and specifically the singles that came off it. The rest of the Electronic albums are okay to pretty good
>>69866972
>>69866998
noice. thank you very much

The major fault with Electronic is Bernard's lyrics. There is a big dip in quality after the late 80s. Trite and simplistic as fuck. Some of the music is good, but it drags on too long, because they are dance songs.
>>69866826
he was pretty useless on mm,really.it's not a good album
The The is decent.Wasn't he on a talking heads album? Or was it just one song?
>>69867911
Talking heads was a couple of songs, but it was a flop album. But for some reason you reminded me, he used Money Changes Everything as the basis for a decent Bryan Ferry song.
