The subtext of this entry into the Morrissey Central canon (whose complete Messages From Morrissey I would one day dearly love to see bound into a huge coffee table book) is ‘even though this was vastly over priced, it still penetrated the top ten chart, which proves my records still sell...
Pure speculation on my part, but hope you’re right!
This constant George Lucasing of his back catalogue is baffling to me. This looks like the sort of CD compilation you find in the bargain bin of an all night garage/gas station for our American friends
Warners could have re-issued this without the man’s blessing. Clearly, the new sleeve art means they do have his blessing. This leads me to believe more info incoming re: the two albums
I think at that stage of his career, he probably needed a couple of tracks to bulk it out a little bit. The fact they’re the same versions speaks volumes
Some of us have been banned, others simply moved on. I’ve been here since the early days in various guises. I’m old enough to remember the chat room days, in all its Web 1.0 glory. It was sub-web 1.0. For those that remember, you had to manually refresh to display new messages.

It’s like ‘40 Years of Morrissey’. Which was turned out to be ‘a Few Months of More of the Same’. I think these shows would have been the same set with ‘Lazy Dykes’
It doesn’t mean anything now and we may never know but was there anything that officially said (outside of media coverage) that he was going to do Quarry track by track? I don’t think the posters for the event stated that and I think we may all have assumed as they were anniversary shows, that...
He’s been very critical of Trump in the past and has clearly derided him. Artists usually distance themselves from politically-opposed individuals/parties when their music is used to those ends. I would expect him to have an opinion
Still no response from Morrissey 12 hours after I read about this on BBC News. I suspect there’s a heated debate going on in Camp Moz as to what the response should be. Moz spotting or full scale retaliation
