Starved Of Mirth
Oh, come on - Morrissey is one of the most outspoken and strong artists out there. If he didn't want his records re-released in the manner in which they have been, they wouldn't be.
It's record companies, and contract obligations that are usually behind these reissue repackage schemes, and I think that's part of the point. It exploits the artist as well as the public.
I don't know who was behind the rereleases of Quarry in its different forms, though, but its hard to see Morrissey sitting down to plot that he would wait 6 months and rerelease with the b-sides.
Not that he's exempt from wanting cash, but I think using the words of this song against him misses the point that it is the evil record company he is singing about, and how they victimize the artist and turn the art into product.
or something like that...
