I found this on Musictap. Very exciting!!!

Enjoying the same duo release that Sanctuary affords Ian Hunter, Sanctuary's Morrissey label, Attack Records, will release Morrissey's Live From the Earl's Court, a CD issue. The DVD issue will be called Who Put the "M" in Manchester and will be released the same date as the Morrissey CD. Both will street on February 22.

Remember that long dry period when you thought you might never hear from Moz ever again? He would book tours, then cancel the night of. The whispers about a new album always turned out to be false. It seems those days are gone. Apparently Morrissey was hard at work somewhere in Los Angeles and now we get to feast on the fruits of his depressed labor...

  • A DVD which contains "How Soon is Now", "Bigmouth strikes again" and many other Smiths classics will sell much better than a DVD of the gig at MEN.

    We have the marketing people of Sanctuary to thank for this.

    Oh, how smart they are...

  • a Belgian radiostation mentioned this long time ago. with the reissue repackage thing he now must have pleased the press in Belgium as well.

    Good thing though, the "you are the quarry" tracks are outstanding and sound a lot better live !!

  • Why shouldn't Moz ride his 'resurgence' wave with an old and a new audience. He was so proud of that MEN homecoming gig, it's great that it's going to be for sale. I can't wait!

  • Let's hope this ISN'T the "new record" to which Moz was referring in the 'Word' interview. I'd much rather have a new album than a live release anyday.

  • Can anyone confirm if it will be the exact performance shown recently on VH2 with some songs cut out? Logically the missing songs should be put on the DVD to give people a reason to purchase it.

    I want a lot of 'Morrissey,' football chants on my CD, please.
    I'm sure Morrissey has prepared a lot of banter for this one.

  • I am really excited about this. I have played Beethoven and Rank to death and am in dire need of a live Morrissey CD. Shame it wasn't Who Put The "I" In Dublin though. And the first Moz solo CD with Smiths' songs on it. I am dribbling at the thought.

  • I love Alain's playing. I hope this upcoming live release features Mr. Whyte & not Jesse. I think Jesse is nothing more than an ex-hair farming studio hack. His cheesy soloing & cliched facial expressions really annoy me.

    Moz should have listened to what Ray Davies was singing in "Session Man". Some one fire this man - or pull a Dimebag or something - just kidding....sort of.

  • Surely they would only call it Who Put The 'M' in Manchester if it was actually the MEN gig after all...

    Anyone else think maybe this is a mistke by MusicTAP?

  • i really REALLY hope this is not the "new album" he spoke of in the word interview. while this is very exciting news, i'm getting sick of the constant ebb and flow of this will he or wont he retire debate. it seems everytime we hear good news like "new album to come in 2005," a few days later there is room for pessimistic speculation, i.e. "could this be the new album he was referring to and possibly the last we ever hear from him???" lets just all pray he hasnt decided to end it with these 2 forthcoming releases.

  • so are both the DVD and the CD the same Earl's show? or is the DVD the MEN show and the CD the Earl's? that would be great if we get two different shows!

  • Might this be the same as what dripped from John Lydon's witty pen?! If so, lol, indeed, I welcome it with open arms...apart from Lydon, I can see only 1 other person - Morrissey - being capable of delivering the lyrics of this song with such eloquently cheeky abandon!!! ;)

  • is the best christmas ever! This news has made a horrible day very nice - but then, Morrissey always manages to do that for me. I hope everyone else is as pleased as I am. I am now going to go to sleep - with a smile on my face.

  • Please, would someone tell me if they have ANY insight into whether or not Sanctuary will release any parts of the July House of Blues Gig in Chicago? The whole thing was filmed, and (ok, this part is slightly selfish) I was in the front, so... Please Sanctuary! PLEASE! At least a couple of seconds of it, anyway!
    Thanks! (I still maintain that Merck Mercuriadis IS a cool name. Brownie points?)

    She said, "Eh, I know you, and you cannot sing," and I said, "that's nothing, you should hear me play piano..."
  • If Earls Court will be recorded live do you think there is any chance he will change the set list? I mean apart from the fact that he plays a lot of B sides he also plays a lot of Smiths songs. Obviously these are his songs but if he wants to put them on an album he would presumably have to pay whoever owns publishing rights to them, as I am not sure this is him. If they cut the Smiths songs from the release it doesn't make for much of an album.

    Does anyone think he may break the habits of a lifetime and change the setlist???

      The fact he's playing a lot of Smiths songs, is for many people a reason to go see him play. If he changes the setlist, the album will not be widely sold.

      Do you think a collection of poorly written B-sides will do well in record stores around the world? One "Beethoven was deaf" is quite enough, thank you very much.

      If there are no Smith songs on the live CD, I will not buy it!!!!!!!!
