Synopsis
Collating classic music press and glossy magazine articles, "Morrissey in Conversation" tells the definitive story of how he bewitched the 1980s, piqued the 1990s, and inimitably returned in the new millennium. The resurgence of Morrissey has demonstrated how transient fashion can never truly eclipse a great maverick. With the release of "Ringleader of the Tormentors" - the first studio album since his 2004 comeback classic "You Are The Quarry", it is time to reflect upon the career of this complex but charming man. "Morrissey In Conversation" recounts the many facets of his unique career, including the way in which the Smiths single-handedly created 1980s indie rock and the deft recycling of their 1960s influences, how a celibate introvert became the poet laureate of the lonely, Morrissey's lifelong obsessions - from 1960s girl singers to the war against animal cruelty, his literary sensibility - from Oscar Wilde to Emlyn Williams, the break up of the Smiths, his ostracism by the UK music press amid accusations of racism, his relocation to the US and ultimate triumphant return to prominence as the godfather of UK indie rock in 2004.
