About Smiths On Guitar
I created this blog to showcase the guitar work of Johnny Marr from the Smiths, and to help those who want to learn his guitar parts or learn more about his gear and production techniques.
I will cover the catalog song by song, using youtube videos from guitarists, chords, tab, and comments from Johnny when they are available. Many of the songs feature many different guitar tracks; often one person will capture something that another will not, so I will be posting everything that I feel helps with the understanding of the overall song, or any part of it. If anyone has anything to contribute, please email me at thom@smithsonguitar.com

"Your Smiths stuff is deceptively tricky to workout by ear…
Maybe you're just not very good…I'm joking. It might be something to do with my inversions and voicing, which I'm told are tricky, but make total sense to me. I certainly didn't do it in a studied way. It's done by instinct and trial; stuff I just discovered in my bedroom on winter nights. When those moments happen, I don't even want to know what that chord is called, or that some clever-dick in Pat Metheny's band has been playing it for 35 years. I just call it That Weird Chord."
Lol on the Pat Metheny reference.
