    Modern Drummer YT: "Brendan Buckley Morrissey Tour Kit Rundown" (December 15, 2022)

    One of the Rochdale Buckleys, no less. A singular breed and a solitary race.

    What’s one cover you’d like Morrissey to do?

    How so?

    What’s one cover you’d like Morrissey to do?

    We have written at length on this in the past, not that our efforts are always appreciated. Anyroads - Rainbow Valley by the Love Affair Excerpt from a Teenage Opera - Keith West Don't Let it Die - Hurricane Smith Glass of Champagne - Sailor They're Ain't Nothin' Like Shaggin' - The Tams CIA...

    Morrissey Central "SOMEWHERE TODAY" (December 14, 2022)

    And of course, what discussion of tattoos would be complete without a mention of the Borstal Dot? Typically on or between the knuckles, they were the TRUE sign of 6os/70s rough trade. Sullivan is welling-up at the memories of many hard encounters with the naughty boys of Cheetham Hill...

    Morrissey Central "SOMEWHERE TODAY" (December 14, 2022)

    Sullivan tells me of the boy he knew in repertoire back in the early 1970s. He had a tattooed member that had been completed with such skill that, flaccid, it read one way whilst revealing an entirely different message when tumescent. All those old craft skills, gone now.

    Morrissey Central "SO YOU FINALLY GOT WHAT YOU WANTED" (December 14, 2022)

    Please, dear people, enjoy and appreciate the genius of Nina Leen here - https://www.life.com/photographer/nina-leen/ SER - in your own time - stupid boy! https://www.life.com/photographer/nina-leen/

    A beautiful image - ruined. It's the 'Chanda Hat' by Nina Leen. I'm sure someone as protective of artists' rights as Morrissey will shortly issue a full acknowledgement of the photographer.

    The silly sausage will regret that when they actually get to hear the record. On the other hand . . .

    Morrissey Central "Witness To The World" (December 10, 2022)

    So, having forgiven Jesus some time ago he's now tapping him up for a spot of redemption. 'Give it a rest' (?) If only. We deep listened IANADOAC again yesterday and concluded that it may well be the last coherent release we get to experience.

    Sam Esty Rayner / YouTube: Morrissey Interview 2022. (Premiered November 28, 2022)

    Nervous? NERVOUS? The way she wields that brutal stiletto, one slashing question at a time? We would say she looked anything other than nervous. More like the deadly journo assassin she is, taking apart a national treasure with her acerbic wit, her rapier-like thrusts and her deadly put-downs...

    The first one . . . what on earth?

    Sam Esty Rayner / YouTube: Morrissey Interview 2022. (Premiered November 28, 2022)

    Goodness me! That was BRUTAL! I bet its the last time Fiona Magdalene gets the call for interviewing duties. No wonder he's cancelling concerts and walking off after half a dozen BOT 'hits' - it's the savaging he receives here. Those bruises will take time to heal. SE-R, what WERE you thinking...

    Fiona Dodwell IG: "On Morrissey, Bonfire of Teenagers & the gutter press" (November 16, 2022)

    So rude. Myself, born 1959 (like someone we know?) Sullivan born 1957 (yes! I'm a toy-boy!). Sullivan's father born 1926. The math is relatively simple. Do keep up.

    Hawtrey! Now you're talking! This site should have more Hawtrey - what a LIVELY chap he was! Sullivan's father knew him in the 1940s at the arse-end of his time with Will Hay (a fraught relationship). Anyhoo - I'm babbling, I know. Me and Mr Shandy visited him in the early 1980s. A more...

    Fiona Dodwell IG: "On Morrissey, Bonfire of Teenagers & the gutter press" (November 16, 2022)

    How true, a point we have made several times before. It's almost as if Morrissey and his simper-clique actually require the brutal treatment and harsh back-handers from what you still charmingly refer to as 'record labels'. It reminds us of the abuseds perverse and continuing relationship with...

    Morrissey Central "THE ICEMAN COMETH" (October 3, 2022)

    Mr Shandy (him) taught this regularly as part of his course on modern American theatre. There aren't many jokes in it. As the wasters in the flop-house descend into self-pity and confessions of murder, a central character demands of his fellows: “God damn you, stop shoving your rotten soul in...

    Which of the five new 'Bonfire' songs do you prefer?

    SE,TTR - embarrassing. It's like listening to your mad old uncle who never got married telling you the story of that time them blokes from the estate did his drive but made a right mess of it. In fact - a lyric based on that might be marginally more interesting.

    Let's talk about Morrissey's compilations

    'My Early Burglary Years' is the only one worth bothering with, mainly on the grounds that it contains the majestic 'Nobody Loves Us' - his greatest solo song.
