god he has to be the most boring person on earth !
ALL he has to talk about(or the only thing anyone wants to know about)is the smiths
EVERY interview comes down to the smiths or moz

WHAT!

I learned loads of wonderful stuff from that interview about folk music. He hardly spoke about the Smiths... Did you even watch that interview?

I wish people here would be nicer about Jonny Marr, he seems like such a down to earth man and doesn’t at all warrant the hate campaign that is out on him.

If Paul Morley would just shut up, would be much more enjoyable.

yeah, a genius, that is the best way to describe J. Marr. Best guitar player ever.

nice interview, shame there was no guitar around (Score:1)

You could almost feel JM was about to "chime in" with more detail.

Anyhow, Johnny clearly felt at great ease, even about Morrissey (whom he misses on a personal level, and no longer on a professional level).

His use of the word "fascinating" was quite, erm, fascinating.
