Steven Morrissey used to know Mark. They took their name from our name; we were friendly with them.

This is the real deal, folks. From a collector's standpoint, these are nearly all the outtakes and alternate unreleased mixes everyone drooled about while reading Simon Goddard's excellent book.
From an audiophile perspective, though, I'm not sure where these fit within the defined constraints of this blog. While I am as excited as any of you are to hear these, and they ARE revelatory, they are sourced from mono bootleg vinyl. The story is these ultimately came from Warner Strategic Marketing, on CDs, a few years back. I would kill to get a CDR dub of those WSM CDs, and I can only imagine how pristine THOSE sound (and hopefully stereo!).
The vinyl capture is also somewhat compressed/clipped, big no-no's in my (admittedly anal) arena. While less of a bugaboo to my audiophile ears than the mono aspect, of course if I had my way - fat chance - someone with a thousand-dollar rig would re-transfer the vinyl at a more reasonable level to avoid undue clipping/compression.
A careful restoration of the Smiths on Rough Trade.
All tracks were taken from the best/earliest possible sources to avoid modern mastering techniques which crush the dynamics. Tracks sourced from vinyl have been carefully cleaned and EQ levels have been tweaked for consistency. The artwork was scanned at the highest possible resolution and the type was reset when possible using the original fonts.
All of these singles are out-of-print in their original form. Some of the tracks have never appeared on CD. This was a labor of love from a small, devoted circle of fans.
These are the songs that saved your life. If you like what you hear support the band by purchasing their catalog.

The former singer of British band The Smiths, Morrissey has also talked of his love for Elizabeth Smart. References to 'By Grand Central Station' are littered throughout Smiths songs such as 'What She Said' 'Well I Wonder' and 'Shakespeare's Sister'.
By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept is a novel of prose poetry written by the Canadian author Elizabeth Smart and published in 1945. It is widely considered to be a classic of the genre.
In her preface to the 1966 reissue of the book, Brigid Brophy describes it as one of the half dozen masterpieces of poetic prose in the world. It details the author's passionate affair with the British poet George Barker and might be characterised as a hymn to love and its supremacy above all other emotions and worldly practicalities.
Morrissey and The Beatles' muse, the writer Shelagh Delaney, has died aged 71.
...
Morrissey – who grew up close to Delaney's hometown of Salford, Manchester – has often paid tribute to the playwright by referencing works from her canon in his lyrics throughout his career in tracks such as 'Reel Around The Fountain'.
The Smiths' song 'This Night Has Opened My Eyes' borrowed its narrative from Delaney's first play 'A Taste Of Honey', while her face also appears on the cover of the band's 1987 compilation album 'Louder Than Bombs'.

Asså vaddå "proud", det kan ju innebära lite vad som helst känns det som
Vi vet ju alla vilka som är Bäst ändå

But which song should he tackle next? 'Luigi, It Was Really Nothing'? 'The Bowser With The Thorn In His Side'? 'Goomba Take A Bow'...?
