Two new Morrissey books that appeared out of nowhere

[the_kaz]

I found the following two books on Amazon.co.uk which were both released on 20th May, 2010:

Songs Written by Morrissey: How Soon Is Now?, This Charming Man, Hand in Glove, Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before (240 pages)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Songs-Written-Morrissey-Charming-Before/dp/1155287096/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1287267587&sr=1-2

Morrissey Songs: You Have Killed Me, There Is a Light That Never Goes Out, Redondo Beach, First of the Gang to Die, Irish Blood, English Heart (184 pages)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Morrissey-Songs-Killed-Redondo-Englis/dp/1155748875/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1287267587&sr=1-1

Neither of these have any information listed about them, so I'd be very interested if anybody here could shed any light?

The listing doesn't give the name of the author(s), possibly the collections of song lyrics?

That sounds likely. But, upon further investigation, I also found the following books from the same publisher (Books LLC):

The Smiths Members: Morrissey, Johnny Marr, Andy Rourke, Craig Gannon, Mike Joyce, Dale Hibbert, Johnny Marr Guest Musician Recordings
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Smiths-Members-Morrissey-Musician-Recordings/dp/115528867X/ref=sr_1_4?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1287269385&sr=1-4

Musicians from Manchester: Maurice Gibb, Ian Curtis, Robin Gibb, Davy Jones, Morrissey, Barry Gibb, William Walton, Johnny Marr, Roy Harper

English Activists: Ouida, Sting, Billy Bragg, Morrissey, Damon Albarn, Mark Thomas, William Cobbett, Annie Besant, Thom Yorke, Stella McCartney
http://www.amazon.co.uk/English-Activists-Morrissey-William-Cobbett/dp/1157512895/ref=sr_1_41?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1287269446&sr=1-41

You should send an email to the publisher.

There's hundreds of these books on Amazon at the moment. None of the listings supply a cover photo & the descriptions of content are almost completely absent. It's not just music either, I've seen some architectural guide books presented in the same way.

It's bizarre. I'm almost tempted to buy one out of curiosity.

(The publisher is listed as 'unknown', god knows what they're all about)

They are printouts of Wikipedia entries. I am not making this up.

I think That's the idea. Hold onto your money.

I got an advance sneeky peek of Phill Gatenby & Craig Gill's new book "Manchester Musical History Tour".
