Re: What do you think of the new Morrissey single, "I'm throwing my arms around Paris
In fairness it's better musically than lyrically. The clarinet sounds good and the single as a whole is quite pleasant as far as the instrumentation goes. The problem for me is lyrically it is Morrissey by...
I'd take Vauxhall over a Smiths album any day of the week. It simply won't be bettered. I like the production on Southpaw as well as it had a distinct sound. As far as Maladjusted goes, the jury is still out but that might change if Kit appears on the re-release.
I've not heard of this but I did hear a story that they covered "I'm so tired" from the white album. Apparently the first 4 bars were accidentally wiped by a studio engineer...... would love to hear it.
Jokes aside, I will probably listen to it in my car. On reflection I'm quite curious to hear it but the fact it has 2 old singles on it has dampened my enthusiasm somewhat.
Personally I really enjoyed the so called lost years. The frustrating thing was the lack of record releases and new material until the 2002 tour. Looking back there was very little news worthy items on this site and to be fair it must have taken a lot of dedication to keep it going. I seem to...
I think the way forward for Morrissey is to attract teenagers and younger fans. Possbly, dare I say it, the Morrissey fan of old has probably moved on in some ways and no longer goes to see him play live and now buys the odd album. I'd include myself in that category to some extent.
There is...
That's a great spot. Has made my evening (sad I know). That was my first ever moz show and I remember the tug of war to get a piece of his shirt, not that I took part. Will see if I can persuade the person with the video to put some more videos up. Ace!
Thanks for putting up the scans. It saves me the hassle of actually having to buy a copy!
I used to have a subscription a few years back but I lost interest after a while as the quality of the articles started going down hill. Nowadays you have to wade through about 50 pages of advertisements...
Who would want a remastered Maladjusted?! I've got better things to spend my money on. Add the unreleased Kit and I suddenly become interested. The remaster on it's own will surely be the lowest charting Morrissey release ever!
It would be a dilema but I would probably give it a miss. I'd rather have the memory of the Smiths as they were, not the bunch of middle aged men that they are now. Of course I would watch the videos on youtube etc but wouldn't really fancy the spectacle first hand. What I would like to see...
My original post was a little tongue in check. I was just implying that Morrissey would go down the same route of promoting this album as he has for the previous two albums. As for the number one single, we live in hope!
Will be interesting to see what is said on the Janice Long interview...
Re: Johnny Marr on The Story of the Guitar
I couldn't have imagined him sitting there playing Smiths songs ten years ago. He's obviously mellowed out over the past few years.
How naff was the Edge though?! I can't help but think of Bill Bailey's comedy sketch on him playing U2 songs! Once you...
How many clubs has the Moz had an allegiance to then? Off the top of my head -
Man Ure
West Ham Utd
QPR
Chivas
Millwall
Brondesbury Park Ladies
Can you add anymore teams to this list????
