Its patchy. Stunning opening, stunning first single, stunning balladeering and one of the most exceptional songs of Morrissey's (including The SMiths) canon in Trouble Loves Me
Papa jack, Ammunition, Ambituous Outsiders, He Cried, mwah mwah mwah. Terrible terrrible songs.
As for Roy's Keen a great Alain Whyte tune sadly lost in puns about footballing window cleaners. Still Morrissey's worst single of his career (along with That's How People Grow Up!)
All I can say is thank god for I-pod shuffle.
The B-sides of the era though are underrated gems.
Personally I think Morrissey's judgement and quality control for one reason or another (Michael. Joyce. Truculent. Unreliable. Deviant.) were all over the shop. The clue was in the short haircut and the two date UK December tour. A country where he no longer felt loved.
An interesting artefact but no masterpiece
