It’s a joy to hear greats like ‘Everyday’, ‘Suedehead’ and ‘November’ in big, booming, remastered glory, and even greater to become aquainted with the unreleased outtakes, especially ‘Lifeguard On Duty’. Add to this the reworked sleeve (featuring Morrissey’s lovely eek and lovely riah) and the unseen photographs within, it’s a lovely memento of an era when Morrissey was still gradually finding his feet as a solo artist.” Bona, darling
He has just confirmed that he has cancelled ALL his promos including Andrew Marr and Radcliffe and Maconie and that Morrissey has flown home. Steve Lamacq has just said the official line which he assumes is from Morrissey’s management is that he has ’ decided not to promote the release of Bona Drag any further’.
