Love Darklands too and I still have to listen to their new album next month.
Will see them live next month.
I can see how the Smiths might be too subtle or gentle for them. After all, JAMC music is mostly a wall of sound with no deep lyrics. It doesn’t bother me though.
Easy to get lost in this long and seemingly endless saga, isn’t it?
3 years have now passed since we first heard of the existence of a new Morrissey album in an interview with Chad Smith. Unbelievable.
I agree but then why call it a hoax? A simple clarification would do. I don’t like the word ‘hoax’ in this context. It reminds me of a certain US presidential candidate whose name I would rather not mention.
An interview and photo shoot in Lisbon that people here can trace back gets dismissed as a hoax on Central? If Morrissey does not remember anymore where he was 10 years ago, well that isn’t a good sign to me.
Me too. I don’t necessarily think there was a fall-out between them Boz was still playing with Morrissey on the eve of the covid breakout, just couldn’t be arsed to resume touring after the lockdown. But why not say so then?
Nice to read that Jack The Ripper is one of Boz’s favorites, it is a live favorite as well and Morrissey seemingly can’t get enough of it.
How about Morrissey recording one last album in Portugal with Boz as producer?
An earlier post in the thread said that Galli also managed Bones, Carmen’s band. So don’t expect him to replace Carmen. That being said, she may move on and work with other artists or on her own projects, and not be available when Morrissey needs a touring band again. The same goes for the other...
Mirrissey was advised to rest for 2 weeks, and these weeks have now passed ;)
But you’re right, we shouldn’t expect anything to come out of this relationship too soon.
My hope is that this guy will facilitate the release of BOT or WMTWD., that he will do the hard work of dealing with record...
These were the good old days when I used to go to the English bookstore nearly every week to look at the British music magazines and buy one of them if it covered an artist that I liked. Lits of Moz and Smiths those days.
Dude was Morrissey’s cat, but I think he stayed with his mother in his...
I am also stunned to read this. JM is already playing Smiths songs with his band and singing them himself or inviting the occasional guest. Add to this that he can’t share the stage with Andy anymore, probably has no interest in inviting Mike back, and that all attempts to reunite Morrissey &...
These were such exciting times, everything seemed possible and the future was so bright.
And they all looked so good and lively.
It’s hard not tofeel nostalgic.
We can only guess, but I don’t think it is the band. They are competent musicians who can learn new songs.
First signs of physical fatigue ( or whatever health issue he’s battling with)?
Fortunately, the setlist he kept repeating was solid, just missing the occasional surprises.
I like the idea of short residencies where he performs a different album (+ old favorites) every night. If at all possible, get the musicians that played on the albums with you onstage. This would be first on my wishlist.
Some other ideas:
- Compile a book including all the backdrops you hve...
That one too, yes.
But Johnny also said that he was drinking heavily at the time of the Smiths, and when asked about Morrissey, he answered that Morrissey was drinking red wine after the gigs. No mention of vodka at the time.
To be frank, I admire Johnny for tackling his developping addictions...
