Curiously my favorites amongst his albums (the Smiths' "Strangeways, Here We Come," his solo album "Southpaw Grammar") tend not to be the ones most revered by the loyalists. I haven't quite figured out why that is.<br /><br />While I haven't acted on my urge as you did, I would cherish a visit Manchester to participate in a pilgrimage to the homeland of fellow Mancunian Mark E. Smith of the Fall (although, technically, he's from Salford).Eric J.
