Greatest Hits package details, exclusive online 'special Morrissey release' coming soon
posted by davidt on Thursday January 31 2008, @12:00PM

An anonymous person writes:
I received a copy today directly from record label source. 2CD set, disc one 15 tracks (without Alma Matters), disc 2 8 live songs. Comes in a rather beautiful gatefold digipak (to get a double LP feel I presume). Fold out picture is the band (liner notes say "band shot by Morrissey"). The 2 CDs are housed in extra "inner sleeves". The inner sleeve of disc 2 features a photo of a male naked arse/back with "Your Arse An'All" written across the ass. Liner notes say "Morrissey's arse photographed by Jake Walters".

There is also an extra sheet included with the following text:

"Coming Soon. A very special Morrissey release. Full details will be available on - www.morrisseydirect.com - Order exclusively online for a specific limited period only. Made to order and not available in-store."

Do you have any idea what that will/could be??

            we know that at least some of the American leg shows were recorded. What if the "special order" release" is an opportunity to order these shows? Collect the whole set... or just the ones you saw.

            At least we know there's no point buying Oct. 27th. There exists an excellent recording of that one. Also Vegas, June 9th, from a different taper.

                if that's true, can we officially call Morrissey an "eccentric" now?
