Follow-up to the previous story "'There Is A Light...' covers article - weheartmusic.com" - Vu writes:
Here's the excerpt of Mark Monnone from the Lucksmiths talking about their cover of "There is a Light that Never Goes Out" for our upcoming podcast show (podcast.weheartmusic.com).
The relevant transcription for those who can't hear the poor audio:
Vu: Can you tell me a little bit about how -- it it Micro-Indie Records or Matinee that approached you guys to do the recording for the Smiths Tribute album?
Mark: Yeah, it was Matinee Recordings of Santa Barbara. Our friend, Jimmy, who runs Matinee is quite obsessed with the Smiths ... unlike us, of course! Y'know people seem to think just because we have the word 'Smiths' in our name, that we must be obsessed with the Smiths (well we actually like them a lot).
But yeah, so Jimmy just, I think it was the 50th release or some on Matinee. Or some special landmark number something special to him so he wanted to do a Smiths Tribute.
At first we didn't know what song to go for. There are so many... I mean which Smiths song do you choose? And then Jimmy said, 'I really want you guys to do There is a Light That Never Goes Out'.
And we were like, 'Alright, we're gonna do that one!'.
What's so great about them is with the way they present. Y'know, Morrissey's vocal delivery and everything, I think it's so important. In a way, they're kind of untouchable. I think that compilation is half good and half pretty good.

Update: 12/11 15:34 GMT: Len writes:
Yes, I was wrong about "Stuff Cilla" being on a Smiths' run-out groove. Can't find the original source for my question but I think Morrissey wrote it on one of those NME questionnaires in the late Eighties, after The Smiths' split and when Cilla Black was Queen of light entertainment television in the UK with shows such as Blind Date and Surprise Surprise. So...I stand small but corrected.

in response to unpopular demand on You Tube I've added another clip from my badly-filmed 1997 interview with the Mobster. This time he's talking about the Cosmic Dancer.
