Between the music industry bashing of "Paint A Vulgar Picture," the breakup writing-on-the-wall of "I Won't Share You" and the bizarre "Girlfriend In A Coma," there's plenty to discuss. We end with some "Pick Your Poison," debating the two Smiths tracks designated as "the worst."<br> <br> Note: We did record a segment on the developments regarding Brand New, but it was early in the news and much occurred after our recording. We decided to table it until the next episode.<br> <br> <a href="http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/rock/7980899/the-smiths-strangeways-here-we-come-morrissey-marr" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Billboard Article</a><br> <br> <a href="http://www.rollingstone.com/music/albumreviews/strangeways-here-we-come-19871203" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rolling Stone Review</a><br> <br> <br> <br> Want to sponsor the podcast?<br> <br> If you'd like to sponsor the podcast, you can contact us at advertising@modern-vinyl.com.
