Anybody know of anything else that could be added or any reason something should be taken off?

By "in the vaults" I'm assuming you mean songs that he's written but not necessarily recorded?

And haven't both "Glass Menagerie" and "I Misses You" (instrumental only, there was only ever a title, no lyrics were written) leaked or am I mistaken?

A combination of things written but not recorded, recorded but no vocal track, unfinished tracks, demos (some under different names), unreleased finished studio tracks...basically, anything that has yet to see an official release that is known exists.

Mr. Reynolds leaked 'Glass Menagerie' a few years ago, I recall...from what I understand, it evolved into 'The Teachers Are Afraid Of The Pupils'.

As far as 'I Misses You' goes, from what I understand, there is more instrumentation to the final version than what is available on the leaked track.

Gotcha. Didn't know that about "I Misses You."

 

[Orson Swells]

There was one at the final Smiths session called "You Don't Know Anything" - but I don't think they got very far with it.

Other solo titles that spring to mind are "The Leeches Go On Removing" from Maladjusted, and "Laughing Anne" and "Agreeable Civil Servant". I seem to remember the title "It's The Place I Love" but I can't recall whether it was a hoax or not.

Under the Films heading, what about adding the 1991 Tim Broad Kill Uncle tour documentary, that was referenced by joe frady in an earlier thread? I know it supposedly wasn't completed 100%, due to Tim's failing health, but I'd love to see whatever footage there is.

For me the 'holy grail' is the 1991 Tim Broad documentary of the 'Kill Uncle' US tour (1st leg) which was snuffed out just prior to an MTV broadcast and PMI long-form VHS release. Snippets popped up in 2003 in 'The Importance Of Being Morrissey' but I don't know of anyone that has seen the full piece. I'd eat a scabby shite to own that.

For films, would the tour wrap-up party video from 1983 count? Rogan mentions it in his book.

"Cage of Marriage" is an intriguing title, anyone know more about this track?

 

[Skylarker]

"Cage of Marriage" is an intriguing title, anyone know more about this track?

I'll take a guess...it's three and a half minutes long and it's all about how marriage is a dead end and a trap and how only the intellectually superior, like Morrissey, are able to see through it. The lyrics are replete with rhymes and clever puns. There's a lot of "oh ohs" during the coda that mirror the vocal melody of the chorus, and it fades out rather than comes to a full stop.

I'll take a gander...it's three and a half minutes long and it's all about how marriage is a dead end and a trap and how only the intellectually superior, like Morrissey, are able to see through it.

yeah, that sounds about right . A sort of solo William...?

 

[Skylarker]

Yeah maybe, but at this point I'd take an old Solo-era throwaway over anything we've been presented with in the last five years being touted as "the best music I've ever made."

 

[Giselle]

What do you all think is the likelihood of one or two of these eventually appearing on his new album? Like some of the ROTT/Refusal-era ones?

If I understand correctly, this track became 'Will Never Marry'...

None.

It's worth noting that Honey You Know Where To Find Me was considered for Vauxhall with a different set of music by Alain Whyte. I believe Chainsaw and Sisterama were reference titles at the early mix down phase for Speedway and Sister I'm a Poet respectively, so they are not true unreleased tracks per se. Similarly, I think Buddy Buried Deeply, Snake Curves Silently, and In Control of Dame Dominance were rumored but never confirmed.
