A young-looking Morrissey is on the cover of the current issue of the NME, as part of their 100 Greatest British Albums feature.

Tickets for the smaller venues on the UK tour are advertised in today's NME.
Accompanied by another satisfying shot of Morrissey, which is however nothing on the classical violinist of last time around.

Uncleskinny also posts on the general board (original post):
Top 100 British albums; of interest here-

54 - Morrissey - Vauxhall and I
26 - The Smiths - Hatful Of Hollow
19 - The Smiths - Strangeways Here We Come
2 - The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead

and at number 1 - The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses.

I'll get a full list up later, along with the attendant quotes from Johnny Marr. Also there's another HUGE full page advert for the provincial dates - nice Moz picture where he seems to be coughing or something
