HATFUL OF HOLLOW includes songs recorded live for BBC Radio 1.
A composite of radio sessions and sundry early singles, HATFUL OF HOLLOW provides an alternative snapshot of the Smiths' early career. Compiled in the wake of their debut album, it exhibited all of their considerable strengths, in particular Johnny Marr's ringing, expressive guitarwork. The riff he creates on 'How Soon Is Now' is thoroughly captivating. Vocalist Morrissey's distinctive croon and solipsistic lyrics are already unique and give the group its originality. At times ironic, at others wistful (as on 'Back To The Old House'), he takes the Smiths into new areas of expression and his contrasting visions are fully expressed herein.

The Smiths: Hatful Of Hollow The Smiths second album, Hatful Of Hollow, is definitely a must-have. This album contains pretty much live recordings, songs off of the debut album, and the band's three new singles. This album is worth it alone for Johnny Marr's brilliant guitar work in the BBC Sessions (consisting of John Peel 9/21/83 and Kid Jensen 4/7/83). You'll love "How Soon Is Now?", "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now", and especially the BBC sessions. This album is one to pick up, and if you don't own it, pick it up now. Submitted by MozMarr522 ("Mt.

A Wonderful Introduction! This is the first Smiths album I listened, and it provides a superb introduction to the band. It has many really classic songs, like How Soon Is Now, and William It Was Really Nothing, and also interesting BBC Session versions of some great songs off the first LP. Excellent!

Hatful Of Hollow
$6.49 Building on the solid reputation of Simon & Garfunkel and the genre-exploring experiments of his solo debut, Paul Simon released this exceptional collection of songs in 1973. Simon seems to revel in his newfound solo freedom here, expanding his folk-rock palette to include gospel, reggae, R&B, and Dixieland, ratcheting up production values, and performing with great authority and confidence. That confidence is supported by some of the artist's finest and most focused compositions, including the jangly, exuberant "Kodachrome," a metaphor for the subjectivity of memory, the beautiful acoustic ballad "American Tune," and the gospel-derived "Love Me Like a Rock."
The Dixie Hummingbirds lend their exquisite harmonies to "Loves Me Like a Rock" [is it "love" or "loves"?] and "Tenderness," while Reverend Claude Jeter contributes a floating falsetto to "Take Me To the Mardi Gras" and the Muscle Shoals rhythms section provide occasional R&B muscle.
These guests add color and texture to Simon's singer-songwriter format, marking a cultural journey that would culminate in 1986's GRACELAND. In fact, THERE GOES RHYMIN' SIMON is probably the artist's most consistent and satisfying solo album after GRACELAND--a sizable claim given the songwriter's impressive achievements through the '70s and '80s.
Retaining the buoyant musical feel of Paul Simon, but employing a more produced sound, There Goes Rhymin' Simon found Paul Simon writing and performing with assurance and venturing into soulful and R&B-oriented music. Simon returned to the kind of ...
