Til The Band Comes In
A dear friend of mine purchased a signed, by all four smiths, version of the queen is dead, they were obviously doing so with goodwill to get me such a gift, trouble is I don't see this as being possibly genuine and reading between the lines know they spent considerable amount on it.(item has came framed with picture of smiths, front cover of cd "signed" and the cd itself alongside, it does look very good, but too good to be true?
The question is, is it really possible that a queen is dead cd first released by warners in 1993 could be signed by all four members if the smiths? Have people seen such items? Did all four members do any type of promo work when the re-releases took place? I had heard that for years morrissey had refused to sign smiths items which had the the other three sigs on them?
Any thoughts? I feel bad about raising suspicion to my friend about such an amazing present, but would hate for them to be getting a fake item.
