Legendarni britanski noise-rockeri The Wedding Present i suosnivačica
kultnih američkih alter-rockera Throwing Muses Tanya Donelly najzvučnija
su imena s liste od dvadesetak izvođača koji su priložili svoje obrade
nekih od najpoznatijih klasika benda The Smiths na njihovu novom tribute
albumu.
Naslovljen “Please, Please, Please: A Tribute To The Smiths“, album će biti objavljen 13. prosinca, a na njemu se među ostalima još nalaze i izvođači poput Douga Martscha (Built To Spill), Telekinesisa i Starsa.
Album će biti izdan u tri različite konfiguracije – CD-u uz koji će također doći promotivna značka veličine jednog inča, zatim CD-u s pridodanim limited-edition bonus 7” vinilom na kojem će se naći još tri covera, mp3-em s mogućnošću downloada dotična tri covera i spomenutom značkom te CD-u uz koji će osim spomenutih bonus 7” vinila, mp3-a i značke još stajati majica i ‘osobni pregovor o albumu’.
Zvijezda omota albuma je Sandie Shaw, legendarna britanska pop pjevačica iz ’60-ih koja je članovima benda, napose Morrisseyu i Johnnyu Marru bila jedan od ključnih utjecaja za ulazak u glazbeni svijet.
Album izlazi pod okriljem etikete American Laundromat Records.
