Reading the february 2nd, 2005 Stuart Murdoch's diary on his site (Belle and Sebastian) I found this :

"Ok, these days there does seem to be some young and funkier people on. So then we get a collection of classic rock, or contemporary folk, or whatever. Back in the eighties I used to fantasise about what my eight would be. I can put them down here. I don’t know if I’d choose the same eight now, but I had these eight for so long. I thought about sewing them into the lining of my underpants in case I got run over and they could broadcast posthumously!

The Smiths : Reel Around The Fountain
Wire Outdoor Miner
Felt Riding On The Equator
Young Marble Giants Final Day
The Pop Group Savage Sea
The Mekons Ghosts Of American Astronauts
The Left Banke Something On My Mind
The Lovin’ Spoonful Do You Believe In Magic?"

He puts THE SMITHS in first position !!
Nice no ??
Here the direct link and his complete text.

  • That's very sweet, Stuart, I always knew you were my kind of soulmate-type guy; your own wonderful "Fox in the Snow" always gets my lachrymal glands working too.

  • they represent the very worst of indie music.
    puny, whiney, feeble wee men with crap twee voices, bad hair, rubbish clothes, zero charisma and a pathological fear of everything that makes pop music the greatest invention of our time.
