Johnny's love of vinal and cassettes stems from them being how he learnt to appreciate music. We could, quite easily, have a person in 20 years or so whose access to music has only ever really been through downloads and MP3s, and significantly, he/she could be there on stage or a music studio playing wonderful guitar riffs just like Johnny has been doing for 20 odd years. The experience may be different, and I agree with Marr when he talks about the beginning and end of the listening experience when listened to on vinal/cassette but we're just in a new mehtod of obtaining music and appreciating music; one can't be said to be objectively any better or worse than the other because of its tangible form, or absence of it. Doesn't Marr look good after all these years? Wow!

Thanks Johnny for great perspective! Hi-Fi gone Hi-Tech ? NO ! Nothing beats the physical copy of an artists work. Better sound quality for starts. & yes, there's a beginning and an end. The story of an album the way the artist intended. Too many signals, too many choises and their all # 1 hits? Hey Scottie.. Beam me up!

Learn how to spell, learn how to punctuate and, if you absolutely must disregard the most elementary rules of English grammar by beginning a sentence with an, "and," then, at least, do us the courtesy of using the actual word, not a f***ing ampersand, you illiterate c***.

Presumably, then, you'll be able to shut the f*** up about it and stop boring us all to death with the constant repetition. We already know and, still, nobody cares.

Did you not bother to listen to Marr? MP3s online are rubbish. The physical artefact, the conversations, the unexpected finds, the surprises with vinYl, cassettes, even CDs/DVDs. And nothing with online surfing. He is really casting pearls before swine with you.

So, because I point out how stupid you are, you get all worked-up and respond by saying (a) that I'm black, (b) that my mother is black and an ape, and (c) that my black, ape mother eats n***** shit? How proud Steven must be. You do realise, don't you, that by saying "n-word" instead of "n*****" doesn't negate, or even disguise, the fact that your post was racist in the extreme? Incidentally, it also underscores my earlier point about you being pretty f***ing stupid.

It's not the first time you've made racist comments on here, either.

Ban?

It all must be TRUE for you to take great umbrage to it all! "it only hurts because it's true!" Then again, your way to anal minded to waste time and post about someone's spelling and free speach violations.

Johnny Marr is featured in a documentary Last Shop Standing

I just happened to listen to BBC London Radio Robert Elms show, Graham Jones, the director of "Last Shop Standing:
The Rise, Fall and Rebirth of the Independent Record Shop" was interviewed.
He mentioned that Johnny Marr, Billy Bragg, Clint Boone etc were interviewed in his documentary.
