Johnny Marr iTunes Celebrity Playlist
posted by davidt on Tuesday March 31 2009, @12:00PM

No Such Thing writes:
I don't believe this was mentioned yet, but Johnny Marr has released a celebrity playlist in the US iTunes store. The list has been out since 3/18/09. Marr selected 14 songs whose artists range from the Buzzcocks to the Four Tops. And for good measure, singles by The The and Modest Mouse were included as well. Not sure if I'm surprised or not that there are no Smiths or Morrissey selections.
