Marr on Moz in new Mojo

Big interview with Marr in the new Mojo. Lots of Smithsy discussion (quelle surprise!). Marr says he’s not financially in the position to turn down the huge offers that Smiths were made last year to reform. Asked about getting back with Moz, he seems open to something at some point but claims that Moz keeps ‘slagging him off’. I was surprised at this. From what I’ve read, Moz has always been very positive about Marr (he only appears disgruntled about Marr for giving up without a fight in the court case). Even thanked Marr when he got his Ivor Novello a few years ago and has said recently that Marr has never been replaced. It always seemed the other way round to me with Marr frequently criticising (or refusing to comment on) Moz’s solo work, albeit in an oblique way. Recently said he would choose Ian Curtis over Morrissey.

While we here in Europe can now only read enviously about Moz's tour of the US, I can at least recommend catching Little Barrie in concert as a consolation.

Just in case you don't know, Barrie Cadogan helped out Morrissey and the band in 2004, stepping in at the last minute for Alain Whyte who'd fallen ill.

His own band are fantastic live and their latest single 'Pay To Join' is simply wonderful... as is the whole 'Stand Your Ground' album.
