A bit about myself:
I grew up drawing in a small town, always interested in surrealism & psychedelic art & music. In the early '80s I started recording experimental tapes & by 1990, my best friend & I were recording actual songs on 4-track (very Ween-like, before we'd heard them). Not online yet.

On this day in 1986, The Smiths released the single “Ask”

As with most of the Smiths' singles, it was not included on an original album. It can be found on compilations “The World Won't Listen” and “Louder Than Bombs” (both 1987)

“Shyness is nice”
