Our Take

PATTI SMITH's iconic album "Horses" is a timeless masterpiece that effortlessly blends punk rock attitude with poetic lyricism. From the moment the opening track "Gloria" kicks in, you can feel the raw energy and unwavering confidence of Smith's vocals.

Throughout the album, Smith's distinctive voice cuts through the chaos of the guitars and drums, delivering powerful lyrics that range from introspective to politically charged. Tracks like "Redondo Beach" and "Free Money" showcase her ability to tackle complex themes with grace and honesty.

The instrumentation on "Horses" is equally impressive, with a blend of punk, rock, and even a touch of jazz, creating a sound that is both unique and ahead of its time. The guitar work is tight and dynamic, perfectly complementing Smith's emotive vocals.

With its iconic cover image of Smith in a man's shirt, suspenders, and loose tie, "Horses" is a visual and sonic statement of rebellion and individuality. It's no wonder that this album has stood the test of time and continues to inspire generations of musicians.

In conclusion, "Horses" is a must-listen for any music lover looking to delve into the rich tapestry of punk rock history. PATTI SMITH's fearless creativity and uncompromising vision shine through on every track, making this album a true classic. So saddle up and ride into the wild world of "Horses" - you won't be disappointed.

About the artist

Patti Smith

Patti Smith, the legendary rocker known for her revolutionary spirit and poetic lyrics, has been shaking up the music scene for over four decades. With her unique blend of punk, poetry, and rock 'n' roll, Smith has cemented her place as one of the most influential artists in the industry. Born in Chicago in 1946, Smith moved to New York City in the early 1970s and quickly became a fixture in the downtown music scene. With her band The Patti Smith Group, she released her debut album "Horses" in 1975, which is still regarded as a classic today. With songs like "Gloria" and "Land of a Thousand Dances," Smith's raw, unapologetic energy captivated audiences and critics alike. But Smith is not just a musician—she is also an accomplished poet, writer, and visual artist. Her memoir "Just Kids," which chronicles her relationship with photographer Robert Mapplethorpe, won the National Book Award for Nonfiction in 2010. And her photography and visual art have been exhibited in galleries around the world. Despite her many accolades and accomplishments, Smith remains humble and down-to-earth. She continues to perform live, enchanting audiences with her powerful vocals and electric stage presence. With her trademark mix of punk attitude and poetic sensibility, Patti Smith is a true icon of the music world and a force to be reckoned with.
