Title: what happened?
Product review: Maybe Johnny Marr wanted his name to be added to the long list of musicians who were once great, but inexplicitly went stale either forever or in spurts (Rod Stewart, Paul McCartney, Prince, etc.).The perplexing thing about this CD is that Marr wrote some of the best music in rock history, nearly 80 songs in just four years - a vast majority of them excellent and ground breaking. How does a person just turn that off? Even though Electronic was good, I always got the sense Sumner was the real talent behind the show - they always sounded more like New Order than Johnny Marr.This CD may have confirmed what was suspected all along - Marr's best days are behind him. Still, Marr has never totally sucked or hit rock bottom, it is just that when compared to his other work, this CD is pretty slight.
