This is it, I'm done restructuring "Passions Just Like Mine". Most of it happened backstage and you won't see the difference, but gone are the frames so the site should look better on smartphones and other hand held computers (as much as a webpage can look good on a tiny device). Some of you have noticed that in the process I have doubled or tripled the number of scans in the discography pages.
But this also means that the site now has the foundations to receive a bunch of new files on collecting the Smiths and Morrissey. Over the next few months I will be adding information that I have been accumulating for 15 years (or 25 years if you start counting when I started collecting). I will put up one discographical entry every week, or two on a good week, chronologically from "Hand In Glove" to "The Sound Of The Smiths", then "Suedehead" to "Bona Drag"-redux. They can be accessed by clicking on 'official releases', then 'complete discography', then choosing either 'morrissey' or 'the smiths', then the release title. On the bottom left corner of every release for which a collector's page is done, you will find a link to the 'collector's appendix'.
Every time one entry goes up, I will start a new thread about it here in Collector's Corner. Other collectors like you are welcome (actually you are expected!) to have a look at the entry and contribute any missing information by adding to the thread, or by sending me a private email to [email protected] . I will particularly need info about the extremely rare stuff such as acetates, in-house tapes and cds, pressing plates, etc, mostly the one-of-a-kind stuff that I have never managed to lay my hands on over my years of collecting. Sometimes I may also ask for additional scans or flat photos.
This will be a lot of work for me, but I should manage now that Morrissey isn't releasing anything or touring. If there is not enough interest in the new pages however, I will stop putting them up, so please be part of the project! All info is appreciated, however small it may be. "Passions Just Like Mine" has become what it is thanks to thousands of bits on information put together from thousands of sources.
thanks,
Stephane
