The Smiths - Handsome Devil
***"The Smiths"***were an English rock band formed in Manchester in 1982. Consisting of vocalist ***[Morrissey](https://cutt.ly/7vnQKtF)***, guitarist ***[Johnny Marr](https://cutt.ly/XvnQXo2)***, bassist ***[Andy Rourke](https://cutt.ly/yvnQVIJ)***, and drummer ***[Mike Joyce](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Joyce_(musician))***,
critics consider the band one of the most important to emerge from the British independent music scene of the 1980s.
Based on the songwriting partnership of Morrissey and Marr, the Smiths' focus on a guitar, bass, and drum sound, and fusion of 1960s rock and post-punk, were a rejection of the synthesiser-based dance-pop of the time. The friction between Morrissey and Marr resulted in a flurry of singles and albums over the course of three years that provided the blueprint for British guitar rock in the following decade.

***”Hatful of Hollow”*** is a band’s compilation album released on 12 November 1984 by **”[Rough Trade Records](https://cutt.ly/YvnQ9fS)”**.

The album features **”BBC Radio 1”** studio recordings and two contemporary singles with their B-sides.
***"The Smiths"*** treated singles as individual entities, not just ways to promote an album, and many of their finest songs were never issued on their studio albums. ***"Hatful of Hollow"*** contains many of these classics, including the pulsating, tremolo-laced masterpiece ***"How Soon Is Now?"***Within weeks it was winning Peel's Festive 50.

***“Handsome Devil”*** is the sixth song on the **Smiths** compilation album ***”Hatful of Hollow”***, released on 12 November 1984 by **”[Rough Trade Records](https://cutt.ly/YvnQ9fS)”**.
