Live From Earls Court review by Jonathan Ringen, Rolling Stone, 3/4 stars

It's been nearly twenty years since the Smiths broke up, but the band's passionate, sensitive fans have never quite gotten over it. On this live set from 2004, Morrissey -- who is slowly turning into a British New Wave version of Frank Sinatra -- heals some of the heartache by revisiting his old group's anthems in excellent, swaggering renditions. Between the shuddering opening riff of "How Soon Is Now?" and the final cymbal crash of "Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me," Moz takes on "Shoplifters of the World Unite" and "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out" to rapturous applause. But Live at Earls Court isn't just an exercise in nostalgia. The best songs from last year's return-to-form You Are the Quarry -- the ironic "I Have Forgiven Jesus" and the fiery "Irish Blood, English Heart" -- hold their own against the Smiths' classics.

We all remember Harry Hill, the comedian who murdered 'This Charming Man' on Stars in Your Eyes and the performance that Jonathan Ross played to Morrissey. Well I was at a Harry Hill comedy show at the Kings theatre Glasgow on Sunday night and to my utter surprise, two songs from the start of the show, 'First of the Gang to Die' came hammering out the speakers nearly deafening everyone. Most look bemused but for me it was a real moment.

Add to this once everyone was departing the venue, the leaving song was 'I Don't Mind if you Forget Me', which was obviously used to be ironic but still, it made my night.

Oh back to something interesting ...
