It's interesting because they finished 38 years ago, I think it's 38 years more or less. So I'm very, very surprised. I mean, I've been in a few record stores the last few days, and I'm really surprised how they live on and their positioned and promoted. And it's really, really very touching. Very touching.

Yes me too, as well.

Probably, no it's ok.

I know we have drama, but this this album was recorded in January 2021 and Capitol signed it and didn't release it. But they're now prepared to give it back to me for a certain price. And it's been quite traumatic and quite sad. Because when you record something, you want it to be available immediately and it was very much of the time. For me, it was a very, very personal thing. And the fact that it hasn't been released has been torture.

Transcript

Rosanna Scotto: The Smiths ("This Charming Man" playing). It's one of their most popular songs from their dominant run in the 80s. Loyal fans can expect the classics and Morrissey's endless solo hits as he wraps up his 40th anniversary tour at the United Palace in Washington Heights tonight. So nice to see you.

Very nice see you, very nice to be here.

RS: First of all, what's it like being back in New York City? And is there a reason why you chose this as the final leg of your tour?

No, there's no reason. It's always good to be here. It's exciting. And as you arrive, as you drive over the bridge and you arrive, it always has that special something about it. You think something's going to happen and it's going to be exciting. And I hope I'm right.

RS: So do you change your concert to the town that you're in?

No, never. Never. It isn't always the same, though. But you don't think about places and fashion, how you approach it. The songs are just the songs. And so forth. And people generally like them.

RS: I know that you're going to be singing some Smiths songs tonight. It's amazing, the band was together just a few years. You've had a much longer solo career than than The Smiths.

Yes, that's very true.

RS: Is that okay with people always kind of bringing up The Smiths with you?

It's interesting because they finished 38 years ago, I think it's 38 years more or less. So I'm very, very surprised. I mean, I've been in a few record stores the last few days, and I'm really surprised how they live on and their positioned and promoted. And it's really, really very touching. Very touching.

RS: Oh, that's nice. Meanwhile, your new music getting a lot of play. People want to hear more of it?

Yes me too, as well.

RS: I know this is a sore subject... we can go there and not go there...

Probably, no it's ok.

RS: Is it going to come out? Are we going to hear it anytime soon?

Well, I don't know how these stories are always boring for most people...

RS: (laughing) No, we all have drama in our lives.

I know we have drama, but this this album was recorded in January 2021 and Capitol signed it and didn't release it. But they're now prepared to give it back to me for a certain price. And it's been quite traumatic and quite sad. Because when you record something, you want it to be available immediately and it was very much of the time. For me, it was a very, very personal thing. And the fact that it hasn't been released has been torture.
