The Smiths - Barbarism Begins At Home (Live Debut, 19/12/1983)

[@ClaGleiser]

Andy was 19 when this was recorded! Un-f**ing-believable! On top of his talent he must have put incredibly hard work into his bass playing! Thank you Andy!! Rest in peace! ❤😢

Funny how it wasn’t released until 2 years later, I had no idea this was such an early song.

[@jdysontube]

Thanks for putting this up. Never heard this bass line before, Andy Rourke is just too underrated.

[@rosschops9509]

He’s a lovable geezer, our Andy.

Electric Ballroom, 1983 of course. Love the alternate bassline, gtr, improv vox, funky ending, the whole bloody thing!

Unruly boys who will not grow up
Must be taken in hand
Unruly girls who will not settle down
They must be taken in hand
A crack on the head
Is what you get for not asking
And a crack on the head
Is what you get for asking
Unruly boys who will not grow up
Must be taken in hand
Unruly girls who will not settle down
They must be taken in hand
A crack on the head
Is what you get for not asking
And a crack on the head
Is what you get for asking
No, a crack on the head
Is what you get for not asking
And a crack on the head
Is what you get for asking
A crack on the head
Is just what you get
Why? Because of who you are
And a crack on the head
Is just what you get
Why? because of what you are
A crack on the head
Because of
Those things you said
Things you said
The things you did
Unruly boys who will not grow
Must be taken in hand
Unruly girls who will not grow
They must be taken in hand

Sounds cool. Think this is slightly pitched down though.
