Morrissey easily the worst drummer in The Smiths.

I left Cluj-Napoca in September of last year, so I don't know which "original member" was performing.
Probably the one who didn’t kill himself.

Just sounds like being in that band I was in. But really there's only a couple bass players that are rated at all, much less overrated.
When I read Pete Jones' memoir, he clearly thinks Jah Wobble is overrated.
Flowers of Romance begs to differ.
As is his absence is missed?

I think a lot of these comments are veering more into unnecessary band members, rather than overrated. I know you will all be shocked that I am using DM as an example, but Andrew Fletcher is unnecessary to Depeche Mode. Vince Clark is overrated.
