Yes Andy, I think you are right about what was fashionable in the 1970s, 1980s and the 1990s up to now. I notice that when you see pictures of old football (from the seventies), the players often have longer hair than they do now. So I think you have correctly provided the explanation.
I think that Andy Rourke is fashionable about 85% of the time and not fashionable for 15% (both add up to 100%), but I am not an expert.
Yes the picture is from Johnny Rogan's "Morrissey and Marr: The Severe Dalliance". Here is another picture from the book - Morrissey when he was thirteen (with long hair!). Unfortunately there are no pictures of Andy Rourke when he was thirteen in the book, so we do not know how long his hair was when he was thirteen.
