    TTY: Holly Woodlawn, RIP

    Come on, BB/BBB/BBBBBBB et al., it's just Morrissey's TTY equivalent of marking the passing of one of your icons by means of a tweet. Not something I would do since I don't like Twitter etc., but it's fairly common practice nonetheless for celebs and Joe Publics alike. What I would like now is...

    TTY: Universal Music, the approach made to David Joseph, since denied by David Joseph

    ...which needed no re-release since it was on-line all the time, still is -- all he had to do was shout out for us to download it with his promise to donate x months' of royalties to a Paris-related charity. Yep. Stop believing in your own importance. Get humble again. Head down and tour...

    TTY: Universal Music, the approach made to David Joseph, since denied by David Joseph

    No it doesn't - or at least I don't want it to. I want to remember The Smiths as they were thank you very much, before the court case and Morrissey going all Bardot. (By this I mean focusing on one "good cause" such as animal rights and being an antisocial humaphobic pain in the lower backside...

    TTY: Universal Music - response to denial

    Guess so, except it won't probably be not given out to us Joe/Jane Publics but music media such as Pitchfork, if they ask for it. Update: wait, I see Pitchfork have updated their article to include this answer from Morrissey. No indication whether they've requested a copy of the letter.

    Morrissey interview in ABC Color (Paraguay)

    That must have escaped me, but I have been wondering about her since she was mentioned in that Mojo review. Guess I'll have to get my hands on a copy of The Heart... now!

    TTY: Morrissey, tonight in Sao Paulo

    Well said indeed.

    TTY: Morrissey, tonight in Sao Paulo

    You're quite right of course. "I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris" is not exactly out of print. Digital downloads never are (unless the artist pulls them, as Taylor Swift did). I think Morrissey was asking for a physical release, which is not only anachronistic but would take far too long to be...

    TTY: Morrissey, tonight in Sao Paulo

    Well, it hurts two people. First of all the record exec, who is not just a record exec but a human being as well. And it spectacularly hurts Morrissey, or rather his chances of ever getting a record contract. Even if he did not create the picture himself, or (legally) not even expressly...

    TTY: Morrissey, tonight in Sao Paulo

    Spot-on. Especially since the "comeback" of YATQ the (new) members' behaviour has dropped spectacularly.

    Dale Hibbert answers - Morrissey-solo Q&A

    See Detritus's rebuttal of that. You haven't played in bands or know how band dynamics work by the looks of it. (Never mind the politics of songwriting credits.) Even if in recording contracts Joyce and Rourke were not mentioned as being The Smiths, that does not mean that they did not...

    Dale Hibbert answers - Morrissey-solo Q&A

    Exactly. Come to think of it, Andy's role in The Smiths is underrated in much the same way Sterling Morrison's was in The Velvet Underground. Pivotal support to the main songwriter (Andy's Johnny to Morrison's Lou Reed) yet sadly overlooked.

    Dale Hibbert answers - Morrissey-solo Q&A

    Dale, thanks for taking the time, much appreciated! Drat, forgot to ask if you'd read Simon Wolstencroft's autobiog and if you found your experience in/with The Smiths similar to his. Because it's not just about The Smiths, it's about his life and its ups and downs, including The Smiths...

    "Boy, Interrupted" by Dale Hibbert available for pre-sale; Morrissey-solo Q&A request for questions

    Re: "Boy, Interrupted" by Dale Hibbert available for pre-sale; Morrissey-solo Q&A forthcoming Thanks, David. Did you submit all of them? And any idea of when we might get them back? (Not that I'm pushing, I'm glad he's taking out time to answer our questions.)

    "Boy, Interrupted" by Dale Hibbert available for pre-sale; Morrissey-solo Q&A request for questions

    Re: "Boy, Interrupted" by Dale Hibbert available for pre-sale; Morrissey-solo Q&A forthcoming Questionable ranks indeed. Still, I think we can't complain, not too many people being obnoxious (so far). Dear Dale, Guess this question has been asked already in slightly different wording by...

    "List of the Lost" review by Roy Wilkinson (3 /5 stars) - MOJO

    What she said. (Always wanted to say that :D) Anyway, if this critic is well-read enough to know about Carson McCullers he's not just your average rock mag hack. Would've thought Elizabeth Smart was an obvious mention, too. And I do value the informed opinion of people who read and review...

    "List of the Lost" review by Roy Wilkinson (3 /5 stars) - MOJO

    Heh. No-one said it was a glowing review, but at least it isn't negative. Does this satisfy Uncleskinny's criteria btw? 3/5 is more than Kill Uncle got on release, BTW & IIRC.

    "List of the Lost" review by Roy Wilkinson (3 /5 stars) - MOJO

    First LOTL not-negative review shock! (That Times review was less negative but certainly not positive.) On page 110 of the same issue of MOJO discussed earlier (#265, December 2015) there is a three-out-of-five-star review of List of the Lost by one Roy Wilkinson, who says the book has "a...

    Johnny Marr on his autobiography, admits he hasn't read Morrissey's - MOJO

    Not-Negative LOTL Review in Same Issue of MOJO Shock First LOTL not-negative review shock! (That Times review was less negative but certainly not positive.) Urgh, I had to wade through nine pages of people discussing the merits of Johnny Marr in the old who's-better debate to check to be sure...

    Morrissey interview in La Tercera (Chile) "My life has always been chaotic"

    Re: Morrissey - “Son shows especiales, porque son en Chile. Y eso para mí ya es suficiente" - Interview I know "seals" means "labels" here not aquatic mammals but still that made me smile. Are they taking the clubs into their own hands? Thank you Google Translate!
