Notes/Flaws: This is quite possibly the best Smiths bootleg yet made. This CD features an exceptional quality soundboard recording of The Smiths at the Universal Amphitheatre in Los Angeles on August 26, 1986. (The concert is nearly complete - only the concluding "Bigmouth Strikes Again" is absent.) The song selection is excellent, opening with "Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want" and drifting through such highlights as "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out," "Stretch Out And Wait," and "That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore". Morrissey makes numerous comments between the songs and Johnny Marr is in fine form. The concert takes a dramatic turn towards the end, as Morrissey interrupts the tender second verse of "I Know It's Over" with a shout of "Jesus Christ! Don't be so stupid! Leave him alone, you stupid idiot, leave him!" directed at the "neanderthal" security guards who were making the fans miserable. All this puts a dramatic, dark overtone on an incredible concert. The packaging, by the wonderful Italian company Big Music, meets their usual high standards, with numerous excellent photos of the band, a picture disc, and a flawless track listing. An all-around exceptional product and a far better concert momento of the Queen Is Dead tour than the officially released Rank. (TM)
