Re: The World Won't Listen...

- Yes, definitely, "World Won't Listen" but only the original LP sleeve (with the uncropped photograph.)
- Hatful Of Hollow (one of the few original Smiths sleeves that I think works quite well in its CD packaging version.)
- I really like the CD packaging from the European version of the "Best Of I" and "Best Of II" compilation (with the Dennis Hopper photograph) but AFAIK Morrissey had no involvement in selecting it.

Always loved the images of the young rockabilly gangs.. boys and girls.. I prefer that one picture to some of the dodgy 60's icons 'iconalised' in Smiths work! The greatest hits packaging was good too in a similar vein.

Oddly enough though, the Morrissey covers were never quite as interesting or challenging.

The most stunning album cover ever is 'Meat Is Murder'.
But all the Smiths covers are Iconic and very dear to me.

I'm partial to Meat is Murder although TQID is also very striking.

Singles is wonderful too.

Meat is Murder. It makes a great T-shirt too.

I WANTED THIS AS A POLL TOPIC BUT DAVID DIDNT DO IT!!

I'm terribly upset, and although I appreciate David's willingness to do this site, I am ashamed of our recent poll topics
