Neil G writes:

Follow this link for some info about the new Moz issue of Index. The home page of Index has a separate photo. They were taken in the grounds of the studio where he's been recording You Are The Quarry.

The notoriously press-shy former frontman of The Smiths met James Murphy and Tim Goldsworthy, founders of New York disco-rock record label DFA, at the Oxfordshire studiow where he is currently completing his new LP.

He tells James and Tim about the thrill of singing on stage, why he lives in La La Land even though he finds the notion of celebrity "terribly embarrassing," and that the best place to listen to music is in the bath.

      The second photo is like Morrissey's "Our Frank" single photo session, 13 years on.

      Who'll be first to put the interview up on this site, then?

        This news item doesn't bother to mention the fact that the magazine in question is actually American. Does anyone know where we can get hold of it here in this country?

        The only listed places are all in London. Which is really fucking clever. America is not the world. Neither is London.

        By the way, I'm glad to see that The Man looks so great with greying hair.
