One of the greatest actors of all time—The Sopranos’ Michael Imperioli—is also a confirmed, dyed-in-the-wool music nerd and songwriter in his own right. The Smiths came along and changed the game for him, and Discograffiti needed to find out exactly why. Here’s just a few of the things Michael and I discuss in Part Two of this podcast series: In-depth discussions of The Queen Is Dead, Louder Than Bombs, and Strangeways Here We Come; Michael’s favorite few Morrissey solo songs; And sections in the Patreon Ultimate Cut detailing the vitriol-fueled end of the band, all four members’ post-Smiths musical endeavors, and their travails in court as they battled it out for royalties! I support a wife and a five-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income.  If you love the episode, please Venmo me a tip @ David-Gebroe, or see below for other ways to support the show!
