Way back in high school, I thought The queen is dead by the Smiths was one of the best records ever. My best friend was into Depeche Mode, which I wasn't really (no guitars). I got The queen is dead and Some great reward by DM at the same time, 2 years ago (ON VINYL!) I listened to both. I doubt I'll put The queen is dead on again. Some great reward however, really impressed me.
I guess it's just that back then, I was to guitar oriented. Another data point : back then, I disdained Franky Goes to Hollywood. I picked up Pleasuredome (ON VINYL!) a few years back. And was very impressed by the first record. Interesting sound scapes segues between their electro-pop hits. Definately better then most if not all that passes itself off as pop "music" these days.
