Johnny Marr - 'The Messenger' full album stream

Johnny Marr releases his debut solo album The Messenger on February 25th worldwide and on February 26th in North America (pre-order links posted here).  Take a listen to a full stream of the album ahead of its release exclusively on Rolling Stone (in the U.S.) and The Guardian (in the U.K.)

A couple of videos of Johnny Marr discussing the making of the Messenger are posted below, plus read a recent BBC interview with Marr here.  FYI, the last song Marr recorded with the Cribs before he exited the band is the subject of another NME 'Song Stories' video - take a look at the Cribs discussing "Leather Jacket Love Song" (with brief mention of Marr) here.
