EP 68. This Charming Man: Johnny Marr

Keith's been reading again. He read a book about Duran Duran - Please Please Tell Me NowAnd Tom Petty - Petty: The BiographyPhil Collins - Not Dead Yet: The MemoirBut the most interesting book of the lot was Set the Boy Free, an autobiography by Johnny Marr. A man you probably know as the guitarist and founding member of The Smiths. The Smiths, however, are only a small part of the story. You probably knew he was in Modest Mouse for a few years in the mid naughties, but did you know he also played with Beck and Talking Heads? Or that he played an integral art in The The and founded Electronic? Still active to this day, Johnny Marr continues to deliver.Let us know what’s up. Support the showDid you know that The New Dad Rock has swag? Coffee mugs, pillow and t-shirts in a multitude of colors and arm lengths.
