Please, Please, Please: a tribute to The Smiths

A 20 track adult alternative album (1h 20m 14s) — released June 4th 2012 on American Laundromat

American Laundromat Records has enlisted a herd of indie-rock luminaries - including The Wedding Present, Built to Spill's Doug Martsch, Throwing Muses co-founder Tanya Donelly, Telekinesis and William Fitzsimmons to contribute covers of 20 classic songs by The Smiths for this new tribute CD. In a fitting touch, the label - which previously has released the compilations Just Like Heaven: A Tribute to The Cure and Dig for Fire: A Tribute to the Pixies - was able to secure a photo of '60s U.K. pop star Sandie Shaw for the cover art; Shaw, of course, was a favorite of both Morrissey and Johnny Marr who, in 1984, covered The Smiths' "Hand in Glove." It's an outstanding tribute to The Smiths and highly recommended.
