"Strangeways, Here We Come was released on 28 September, 1987, months after the Manchester band disbanded in acrimony.

It went on to reach number two in the UK charts and was the group's most successful album in the US.

Joyce said though the band had split before it came out, it had been "a great experience recording that album".

The Smiths, who released four studio albums across their career, are one of Manchester's most important and influential bands.

Achieving global success in their five years together, their iconic status has brought enduring fame to Joyce, guitarist Johnny Marr, bass player Andy Rourke and singer Morrissey.

Strangeways, Here We Come, which takes its name from the Manchester prison, was recorded in early 1987, but before it could be released, tensions between Marr and Morrissey saw the band split."
