Wow, spooky. This just popped into my head this week, hadn't thought about it in ages and was just about to post a query on here about it.Does anyone know about this
The first solo efforts of Morrissey, made for night-time Radio 1 but not, at the singers request, broadcast?
TY.
I didn't know the Wolverhampton gig was billed as a Smiths farewell!
In Simon Goddard's 'Songs That Saved Your Life' it is listed in December 1997 as ''Morrissey records solo session for John Peel at BBC Maida Vale with Vini Reilly, Andrew Paresi and Steven Street. The tracks were never broadcast.''
No songs are listed.
I too have Ken Garner's excellent book on all the Peel sessions, presumably it lists all sessions played rather than just recorded.
Does anyone have that website for Steven Street that was on here the other week? Does it have a contact email for him? Someone should ask him what tracks they were.

What does anyone think of my theory for the RoT cover.
Morrissey is , and this is just being jokey part, is the secret paymaster of animal rights extremists. Obviously hes the R and the experimenters are the T, HLF etc. He's playing the violin to offer mock sympathy for them!
I just read it on that passionsjustlikemine siteeh?
I've never heard it being described as such.

Great idea.
Hope Stephen will give us details.

Hold on chaps and chapesses - isn't this the Born To Hang, Striptease With A Difference and Oh Phoney session?

Well they didn't get a mention on Stephen Streets workings of early songs.... and wasn't the other version of Piccadilly Palare in with that collection (or were they all recorded at different times?)
Peter, change your picture back..... I miss you roving Morrissey
