Had to Google about it....AI answered:
In December 1982, the Smiths recorded a demo tape at Drone Studios in Chorlton-cum-Hardy, Manchester, England:

What Difference Does It Make?
Handsome Devil
Miserable Lie

The band used this demo tape as an audition for EMI, a record company that turned them down

Foreign Press, Quando Quango, The Smiths, Demo Tape - Drone Studios, 1982 – Manchester Digital Music Archive

Here's a section of a tape inlay for Drone Studios in Chorlton. I believe it was a popular (and no doubt cheap) studio for bands to record demos...

I once checked that one page (Foreign Press) and had no clue what to do there (brah...)
Guess we still got a long way until they decide to release/leak em (if they ever do)
