Greatest Hits cover photograph

[butley]

Can no one on this forum identify who took the photo on the Greatest Hits album?

Have no similar photographs from the same session ever seen the light of day?

The photographer was not Jake Walters. I just made a presumption.
I'm not sure if it was the same session but the covers of All You Need Is Me and That's How People Grow Up are relatively similar.

If you mean the large face on the front cover, the photographer is unknown.
It is stated in the inside liner notes.

Cover photographer is unknown by Morrissey or his then management. The rest of the photos used for the GH singles were shot by Jake.

Can't you tell? Its a typical myspace mirror shot!

I wonder if it could be from the same session as this photo by Renaud Monfourny...

I concur.
Ever since this pic first showed up, on the promotional posters for the Hollywood Bowl gig in June 2007, I've always thought it was from this session for the French mag 'les Inrockuptibles', back in 1991 or 1992 ?
Maybe I should suggest it to Moz

Kinda off topic, but i love Jake's photos of Jose Mourinho on there, he really seems iconic and recognisable aswell as stylish and handsome to a level you'd never expect a fromer Chelsea manager to be able to reach!

Not tried very hard,have they?

They must owe that photographer a pretty penny or two.

Morrissey took it himself. With his phone. It turned out surprisingly well.

Hi sistasheila,
Do you know what magazine that picture of Moz with the England t-shirt appeared in ?
Thanks
