Music press article about Johnny Marr’s car crash which resulted in the cancellation of an Artists Against Apartheid gig at the Royal Albert Hall with The Fall. The gig was rescheduled to Dec 12th at Brixton Academy which ended up being their final live performance. Forty t years on it’s still the best performance I’ve ever witnessed.
