Your latest Morrissey/Smiths buy

Rhino promo cd from ebay, with thanks to Allie Walls and Flax. Not sure how convinced i am it's genuine but still.
 
Just makes me think of Kathy Burke sitting on that old fridge...

Is this an edit of the original or a different take all together?

It sounds like it is in line with live versions of the song

5 When Morrissey did this song live on the 2000 half of the Oye Esteban tour the band always played the instrumental portion that follows this line, but Morrissey never did the vocals. He only hummed or sang "the glass is moving" and "the dark spell is weaving" and didn't spell out his name.​

Hmmm not sure how I feel about this... can't wait to hear the album, it will be great to hear new versions of old songs, but to mess about with such a classic by just cutting it short...

Hi Dave,
It is an edit of the original. It goes from the very first "The table is rumbling" and then "Well she has now gone"
Hope this helps
 
I got 2 from the same seller and i compared them to the one i got with the boxset and in my view they are identical.

Yes Allie I've checked vulgar picture and others have pmd me saying it's identical to theirs. It just seemed so cheap still shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth very happy thanks again.
 
50th Birthday Gig Pass :)

It's a silly buy, really, seeing as I didn't attend. I just liked the idea of owning that little piece of pop culture history.

Maybe it's not so intelligent just 'cause you've not attended it, but it's a good memorabilia
 
Their is no way they made 200 of that "This Charming Man" promo! I have seen tons on ebay. Either they lied about how many were made or someone is bootleging them. Funny that Vinly Exhange has one for 50 pds and I saw one on ebay last night for 10pds.

If I remember correctly, the first 200 orders from Recordstore came with the promo, I know that others were sent out to the usual people for promotional purposes. so who knows how many were made?

I also think Vinyl Exchange had three of them for sale for £50, but that was when they first came out and I for one thought they would be quite sought after, I guess I was wrong :D

so I opened a Your Arsenal cassette that I recently found, and saw these photos for the first time.
I haven't seen them in my lp or cd. Is this the only place they show up?

Here are much better images thanks to Flax.

They also appear in the USA sire/reprise edition Longbox. But at the back of the longbox, not the CD itself. I think I have box somewhere, I'll see if I can find it.
 
All of these from Badweatherfriend. Thank you very much.

This is weird. That is the same picture used for the one I bought off Ebay a few weeks ago. Here is mine http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170529905708&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
but it is a different seller. Here is the one you got.http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MORRISSEY-BON...?pt=UK_CDsDVDs_CDs_CDs_GL&hash=item4aa466ad45 They both are in London and we got them for the same price. How long was it on Ebay? The one I got was on there for 12 minutes. You will be happy when you get it.

I think the seller lifted the photo and description from the listing of the one you bought.
Nothing wrong with that in my opinion, I've done it in the past myself when I couldn't be bothered to take photos, etc.

The seller contacted me after I paid expressing surprise about the fact that the disc was sold 3 minutes after he listed it!

Can't wait to have it in my hands now... :)

This is the 12" Australian exclusive "ASK" EP I had on hold for me at the local record store. I finally paid it off and got to take it home! It's a gorgeous piece of vinyl, well worth the $95 I paid for it. I think. Haha. Very happy with it.
