Working class hero

4/5/2007 9:24:00 AM

Johnny Marr never got to the top of the US charts as the guitar hero of the Smiths, which is one of the great injustices in pop history.

Well, now he is up there as the rhythm guitarist of Modest Mouse, an indie band from Washington - of all the places. No jingle jangle, no solos - just what the song requires and nothing else.

I guess this goes to show that if you do what you do best long enough you'll reap the rewards one day.
