Thank you so much for the transcription (Score:1, Interesting)
And although I find Tillmans' pictures absolutely lovely, the questions sounded deadpan so they led to the same answers every Morrissey fan knows by heart. Hopefully, there was no sexuality mentioned !
Why wasn't there any questions about the deep reason why he chose Jerry Finn for instance ? Green Day, Blink 182 ! They're from another galaxy and some college band bashing was expected from Mr Morose !
Anyway, Thank you again for the transcription, I live like a monk and never got the chance to run to the store ;-)

The Jerry Finn connection (Score:2, Informative)
Jerry Finn produced the 1997 Smoking Popes album Destination Failure, which Morrissey was quite taken with. In fact, that led to his asking them to open for him on the Maladjusted tour.
I find it interesting that You Are the Quarry has already been described by Alain as partially akin to Your Arsenal. Much as Mick Ronson was associated with Morrissey's past favorites, Jerry Finn guided one of his more "contemporary" faves.
I have the Alkaline Trio's From Here to Infirmary album, another project Finn mixed. The crystalline, crisp sound is the antithesis of the staid, slightly murky mix Steve Lillywhite gave us on Maladjusted. Given all the flack that album received, perhaps Morrissey was looking for something more immediate.
Cheers,
Jamie

a nice interview. (Score:0)
that was a good one. I love hearing Morrissey express his love of pop music and the simple beauty of a singing voice.

I know Mr. Morrissey likes to be recherche, but this was pushing the boat out when it comes to obscurity - vague arty magazine NOT sold in the usual retail outlets. It's very well being elitist, but this is hellish for fanz who could'nt get a copy of this 'all gone' mag.

Was that IT??? (Score:2, Interesting)
Maybe it's the reporter, but my God... Moz gives the same answers as he's been giving for the last 79 years.... "I love the human voice bla bla bla, 1972 bla bla bla, The Smiths were alternative bla bla bla, I'm the outsiders outsider... Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz".
Disappointed. Very much so.
Come orrrrrn, Moz... you can do better than that!

Hmm...Christina Aguileras (Score:2, Insightful)
JAMES: There are technically good people - the Christina Aguileras - but they oversing.
MORRISSEY: They make a meal of every note - they chew it to pieces. That's not singing.

Recycled indeed! (Score:2, Insightful)
The interview seems mainly to consist of recycled old interviews. Nothing new to be found. So many questions could have been asked... and this is what we get?
All that was missing were a few rants against the british legal system and the royals. Oh well, better luck next time.
