  • Happy New Year Alan/Allie Walls and a Happy New Year to you dear Morrissey. Where would we be without you Morrissey? Lost? Maybe found, but end the end sorely lacking, off to work and slacking. All your songs you sing just for us "and if a 10 ton truck kills the both of us", well...those 10 shows, I mean 8 shows at the Hollywood Palladium??..."the pleasure and priveledge were mine". Thank you Morrissey, you saved me "from a ship wrecked life". Maybe Record Collector magazine thinks the same thoughts. That Morrissey and the Smiths will be remembered forever as the greatest indie group and performer of all time. Love you past love you, Molly Mae Morrissey xoxox

  • Why do people keep banging on about The Smiths? Why aren't Alain Whyte on the covers of magazines like Record Collector and Uncut?

      when Morrissey release his new songs, hopefully
      on a label and not via Itunes, I want a cd/DVD
      or something in my hand, want to look at the detals on the covers and inlays

      if a new album comes out,well me thinks his co-writers
      [Boz/Alain are/were since 1992 who wrote
      90% and the best]
      will be named and a photoshoots of the M and his Lads will pop up

      without the Smiths, I doubt if Morrissey was so
      succesfull and searching someone to write andcompose songs.

      on the other hand, lots were bored with new wave
      and band with long names and looking they came
      from the catwalk
      The Smiths and other bands, and a lot did since punk, or before, were just guitarbands, Saint
      J.Peel helped the first demoo hitsingle promote
      and a sorta cry out for just guitar[2],bass,drumms and someone who sang lyrics or
      even wrote them himselve that beautifull it touched a lot of people, M's lyrics gave the feeling, hey he's singing about me, or regognise
      it

      Therefore The Smiths should have been given at
      least an award for their released music, and what influence they had on a generation

      some may not understand,there was a tie when there were no mobile , internet, it was mouth to mouth, no 10 glossy musigmags, it was way different

  • Being a bit of a tight arse i popped into Smiths (how apt) to have a flick through with a view to buying.....all i can say is don't bother...spend your hard earned cash on a pint instead...unless of course you dont work and are unemployed...in which case...you may want to spend it on a new paintbrush and a rather cheap canvas!!!

  • Jesus, this is like the 50th cover they've had The Smiths on. Have the band put out new material that no one knows about?! Really, put someone new on there like the Beatles or something.
