Patti Smith’s ‘Horses’ Marks 50 Years
Next week marks the 50th anniversary of Patti Smith’s debut album, Horses, which launched a transformative era in rock and roll. We revisit excerpts from Smith’s interviews in 1996 and 2010, where she reflects on her early life in New York City as she explored her identity as a poet, performer, and eventually a songwriter.
