Mike Joyce, former drummer of The Smiths, will dedicate his weekly Coalition Chart Show on New York City’s East Village Radio entirely to his old band this morning, playing two hours of hand-picked cuts from the new Rhino Records-released Complete box set. The show — streaming online from 10 a.m. to noon EDT today at eastvillageradio.com — will feature 24 songs spanning all of The Smiths’ albums (each remastered by Johnny Marr), and will find Joyce offering “a little insight into each track,” according to the station.
