Troy Tate - Ticket To The Dark LP & Liberty LP

English musician and record producer. Member of The Teardrop Explodes and Fashion. If you google Troy Tate all you get are pages of The Smiths links, he was the bands first producer but got fired before the album was finished, which is one of those things I suppose, its just a shame that’s all he’s remembered for and not his great music.
