🎼21 April 1959. Happy Birthday🥳🍾 to Mr. Robert Smith, born in Blackpool, England.
No particular things to add for a guy that can be immediately recognized for his guitar-playing style, his distinctive voice and the huge influence he had on the goth subculture (and related "dress-code") of the 80s.
In the Chat Room👇 I post my favorite #TheCure number, A Forest, in a terrific live version of 1981 which shows more than anything else Mr. Smith's attitude... best attitude ever I would say! 🤟🔝😈
Any Cure fav from your side?

🎸 #Siouxsie and the Banshees in Venice, September 1983.
At the time they were touring #Italy with a special new member and guitarist, #RobertSmith (#TheCure).

🎸❤️‍🔥 #21April 1959.
Happy Birthday #RobertSmith!

Here's a photo of him in Venice, September 1983.
He came here to film a videoclip for a successful single that came out in 1984 🤔... he was not with #TheCure at the time, anyone knows which song? Anyone can find the video? 🫵

🎼🎥 As our friend from Austria guessed 👍 #RobertSmith came in Venice as a member of #SiouxsieandtheBanshees. They shot a video in the city for this cover of an amazing #Beatles song.
This also proved to be the band's most successful single in 1984!

Funny how the places in this video are all in my #WalkingTour, mostly in #Cannaregio area.
Wish to see them? Come with me 😉
