you were really scraping the barrel there. 'Our Frank' - yes, a bit of poetic license!

But no Jeane?? It's not one of the best Smiths songs, but it's certainly better than the likes of Papa Jack, Roy's Keen or Tony The Pony.

1. Jack The Ripper
2. Sheila Take A Bow
3. I Have Forgiven Jesus
4. William
5. Spring-Heeled Jim
6. Sunny
7. Shakespeare's Sister
8. Frankly, Mr Shankly
9. Alma Matters (IF we actually take it as name...very questionable!!)
10. Michael's Bones
11. Jeane
12. Christian Dior
13. Kit (hypothetical...it sounds like it would have been wonderful if it was ever actually finished!)
14. Black-Eyed Susan
15. Billy Budd
16. Margaret on the Guillotine
17. Daggenham Dave
then it's really scraping the barrel with Roy's Keen, Tony the Pony, Papa Jack... yawn

There was a very famous British singer called Alma....

First one on here to come with the answer gets her complete works. (although you'll have to download it yourself from Limewire!)

Yes i'm no stranger to the scraping of barrels....although i must say the first 15 tracks or so would make a fine album.

Alma Cogan

 

[Morrissey the 23rd]

Is "Alma" the name of a person?

There is a street in Camden called Alma Matters. Alain whyte used to live there (or so I have been told) and Al matters (which no matter what, he does).
