To those asking where this song is from, it's not on a studio album, but was released as a B-side to Dagenham Dave.
Astonishing this didn't make it onto Southpaw Grammar. Actually my favourite EVER Morrissey song. Just when you think it's going to end... it goes up another gear. Spectacular!
@stanleymchale1977 This and Edges are no longer....... should have both been on the album. He's lost the knack of tracklisting perfect albums which is such a shame.
You know, my single most favourite thing about Morrissey is that even during his most unbearable, tragic times, he can't resist dropping a little humour in there too. I love this man, he's my own personal Jesus.
It has to be one of my all time fav's songs. Moz has never lost the grip on his hands! How I wish to see him play alive...Thank you Moz, you have saved my life!!!
I think the last 4 studio albums could all have been improved by replacing weaker tracks with stronger b-sides.
There are songs on 'Southpaw...' that aren't as good 'Nobody Loves Us', songs on 'Maladjusted' that aren't as good as 'Lost' or 'This is Not Your Country', songs on '... Quarry,' that aren't as good as 'Its Hard to Walk Tall ..,' 'Never Played Symphonies,' '...Daddy's Voice' and 'Friday Mourning' and songs on 'Ringleader...' that aren't as good as 'Ganglord' and 'Good Looking Man...'
I've seen Morrissey a few times and it always makes me smile when he'll put b-sides in a set over album tracks that an audience would be more familiar with. I remember in late 2004 'Friday Mourning,' 'Don't Make Fun Of Daddy's Voice,' 'Munich Air Disaster 1958,' "The Never Played Symphonies" were all played as well as 'Redondo Beach.' I like these songs, but it killed the atmosphere.
@timmythepierate - totally agreed... I perfermed a tribute night in Miami, and i made sure we played this song- the crowd responce was like: wow... noone ever plays this tune!! long live The Moz
It's such a mystery this song. The B-Side to Dagenham Dave, it was easily the best of the Southpaw Grammar sessions and is in every sensible person's Top 10 Moz tracks. It's a blinder.
Moz seems reluctant here though. He couldn't imagine that nine years on he'd be playing 20,000 people at the M.E.N. and be the press Darling again.
