i read somewhere that the first edition of 'viva hate' in the US had 'hairdresser on fire' on it. is this true? and more importantly, how rare is this edition?

yes it does. it's not rare and you can still buy the original 1988 issue.

The canadian version of Viva Hate surely has it included as track 9. You find it quite often on ebay as Viva Hate 13 track. or similar...

It's on Sire/Reprise CD25699

All editions of the US VH have it. It's not rare in the slightest (here in the US, anyway).

Thanks for the answers. I haven't seen a US copy in Australia, besides the 1997 re-release.

The US cassette also had it. I always thought it fit in quite nicely on that album.

Is it true that Morrissey blows a kiss at the beginning of Hairdresser on the US cassette version?

I'll sell you mine. :

It was $3 with shipping, and at the time, my car didn't have a CD player, so it wasn't a total loss.
