Johnny Marr
The Messenger
73/100
As the former lead guitarist for the Smiths, you would probably expect an album full of catchy guitar licks but lacking in Morrissey's star power as a vocalist. You'd be right on both counts. What The Messenger amounts to, then, is a pretty good album that makes you wonder about the many ways that it could be better. And because you're wondering that, you end up feeling that this is a good, but not great, collection of songs.
