Re: Article: Morrissey Live At Wolverhampton Civic Hall 1988 - soundboard bootleg LP
Just to let you know that this is not the audience recording. It is the soundboard recording and it is very good quality. It does sound professional. Very professional. It is a night that will go down in history. It also still has the same "band slightly pausing " moment before Morrissey sings his heart out.
Being frank, the audience recording that appeared after that night - that somewhat infamous recording - actually contained too many 'wails', 'woh's' and 'chants.' It was constant and it was loud. It was the only record of that night but it was far from perfect.
I know that this is a night that goes down in history forever - Morrissey did so well to come back from the death of The Smiths - and I know that the band had to be put together very quickly for Morrissey to get back out there, but thank god we had the arrival of Boz, Alain, Gary and Spencer a few years later. Morrissey is just class. But Boz Boorer, Alain, Gary and Spencer made him think on his feet and gave him some excellent style and complemented his vocals and could also play in time and in tune.
And here we are now,
