Smiths/Morrissey mention on 'Ray Cokes: Still Wanted?'

After an absence of 6 years, former 'MTV: Most Wanted' presenter Ray Cokes made his live return to the MTV Networks on Sunday with a one-off special 'Ray Cokes: Still Wanted?' on VH1 UK.

As James were performing live in the studio, they put together a picture chart of how to get from James to pop band S Club 7 in six steps. The first step/link was The Smiths, with producer Will saying that James supported The Smiths at Brixton Academy in 1985 "... and I should know because I was there... it was great". The second link was the Armageddon Dildos because they covered 'Everyday Is Like Sunday'.

On a side note, this one-off special might be turned into a series. I hope it does because it's one of a few British shows Morrissey could ever contemplate playing on.

    Just a few days I was thinking of Ray Cokes and where he dissapeared to....totally out of nothing, and now this! This is great.

    I really like him, I think he's a jewel amongst all the mtv idiots. Too bad the show probably won't be on the German outlet.

        The ray cokes show on VH1 was exellant, just as his old Most Wanted shows were. I can totally imagine Moz going on the show. I hope Ray gets a series and I hope moz goes on it.

        Last time i saw moz on a show was when he sang Satan Rejected My Soul on the Jack Docherty show on Channel 5
