I haven't seen this site before, but await the inevitable "was already posted" reply. :)

http://www.faqs.org/faqs/music/smiths-morrissey/

I fouhd the below entry interesting;perhaps the highlighted songs are mentioned in Mozipedia or elsewhere, I haven't got the book to hand.

What unreleased songs are there by Morrissey ? [27]Oh Phoney, [28]Striptease With A Difference, [29]My Name Is Mortimer, [30]Born To Hang, [31]Fantastic Bird, and [32]Stay As You Are. Also there are rumoured songs "Buddy Buried Deeply", "Snake Curves Silently", and "In Control Of Dame Dominance", although there is even less evidence for these. Apparently the last song is about David Bowie.

Very sad to discover that the original link which was hosted by 'It May All End Tomorrow' has been disappeared into cyber oblivion. :(

who's the avatar Ghost? I think it's an improvement on the blob fish, not as distrubing and but scary instead.

'Tis a great photo, Julie. It's on Shorpy, too.

Bang on with the Heathcliff analogy, others have mentioned that.

We should have a thread for old photos. :thumb:

Poor old blobby. :(

Much too good-looking to be either.

He's an American of Dutch extraction from Philadelphia. This was one of the very first portraits of a human being. Interesting stuff, I stumbled upon it yesterday.

He looks like he could easily be from the early 21st Century as much as the early 19th.

I thought for sure he was an outlaw, but when you see the enlarged photo he's not scary at all, just... gorgeous.

Great find, Ghostie. :thumb:
