The Buzzcocks. I know Mike Joyce was a huge fan, other than this, I have never heard Morrissey say anything about the Buzzcocks.

He was very fond of Howard Devoto hence the inclusion of both Buzzcocks and Magazine.

Both bands were brilliant mind.

I heard he was a big Buzzcocks fan. You can hear the influence in his lyrics I think. The same sort of quirky sense of humour.

Thanks, I know and I love them. I always wondered why they were never mentioned by the man. But I guess it was me that missed it.
 
Jaysus, he liked Inspiral Carpets? Why?

Maybe he was being droll.

Anyway, would some kind soul explain the C.3.3 reference under "Old Masters"? Ta.

It was 1989...maybe he liked 'This Is How It Feels To Be Lonely' which was an OK song

That was Oscar Wilde's Number when he appeared at the Reading Festival....

there is an interview where he mentions them, but I can't for the life of me remember when or where. Oh the squalor of my mind.
 
Re: The Buzzcocks

Moz was at the Pistols gig in Manchester that the 'Cocks sorted so I guess he had a huge affection for 'em from the start eh? They started off here in Bolton how's about that then eh?
