Johnny Marr (2015)
“He became one of the hardest-working guys in the music business, which – given his status and the profile his work to date afforded him – was something he certainly didn’t need to do. But Johnny Marr’s work ethic, the nature of the relationships he builds with those around him, and his enthusiasm and love for great guitar music are second to none. Invited by writer/guitarist Isaac Brock to come over to look at ideas prior to Modest Mouse commencing work on their next album, Marr was interested,... intrigued, liked him, and told Brock to give him ten days. “A week seemed too formal,” he told one interviewer with a laugh – a ten-day air ticket was the cheapest travel option for him. In the end he lost money on the deal – he never took the return flight.
Modest Mouse, formed in Issaquah, Washington in 1992, were already on Marr’s radar before his joining. There was, indeed, already something of The Smiths about them. Named after a line in a Virginia Woolf story “The Mark on the Wall”, in which Woolf describes quiet, ordinary souls who “dislike to hear their own praises,”MoreLess
