[Lujan369]

His good reason may not be your good reason.

Your good reason may not be my good reason.

Be careful in these here parts,
As you may find yourself tried with treason.

A good reason is something that justifies. A reason that most people know is okay with me canceling. It's obvious. The best reason is the one most people accept

[ZOOM FROM GLOOM]

It's a pretty good album, that to me slips into the middle of the solo discography, just because there are a lot of good tracks, but not many great ones. The recording quality overall is lacking.

My fave album tracks are easily He Cried, Roy's Keen, Wide to Receive, and Trouble Loves Me. Fave B-Sides are Lost and I Can Have Both.

hmmm, I don’t see the song ‘Maladjusted’ in your fave tracks list, Juan.

Blasphemous!!!


For me, Ambitious Outsiders and Sorrow
as brave of move it was for Morrissey to
do something new, particularly Sorrow, I believe they are the weakest links in the chain.

I actually like Ambitious Outsiders, but what ruins it for me is the short instrumental musical break, that to my ear, doesn’t really fit with the mood of the song….

 

[brody]

The edges are no longer parallel sand Trouble Loves Me are ace

 

[brody]

I think Alain once said “The Edges” is his favorite song he wrote with moz. May be wrong

 

[The Alchemist]

Edges deserves a mention in the vocal melodies thread, unless someone has already said it.

It's gorgeous.

 

[Famous when dead]

Indeed, but he's changeable.
It was Our Frank at one point.

And so on...

Absolutely. Gorgeous falsetto, such desperation and anguish in the vocal

 

[hand in glove]

I need my benzos daily.

Maladjusted is one of my favorite albums and songs.

You just wanted to show the clip!

I do really like the song Maladjusted, it's just not in that group I listed. I like the voice sample and all the sound, and I love a lot of the lyrics on it. It kind of slinks to and fro, but marches forward in a steady groove. It's a very cool song. He doesn't disappoint with LP title tracks (Southpaw, Kill Uncle also), though there have only been three.

And I agree with you that AO and Sorrow are the weakest tracks on the LP. Musically, both are not very good - Sorrow is dire both musically and lyrically.

 

[Juan Dulces]

That's a beauty of a song. Love the 2011 remaster from the Box Set too. That track is the jewel of the first LP for me.

Oh, but I know what will make you smile tonight.

well, I think we’d all love to hear the song ‘Kill Uncle’, because there was one, is one, somewhere.

‘The song that gave the "Kill Uncle" album its name must have been written shortly before or during the recording session for said album, at Hook End Manor in the autumn of 1990, with producers Clive Langer and Alan Winstanley. At least one incomplete vocal version of the track has been recorded, featuring two verses and a chorus (and Morrissey coughing).’

Kill Uncle

and there’s a brief discussion of supposed lyrics for it here ….

Kill Uncle - Title Track

I know the title track for KILL UNCLE was scrapped, but does anyone know if it actually exists as a bootleg? The lyrics are awesome. I have heard it made it to demo tape or something. Anyone have?

Yeah but he didn't write Frank. He wrote Edges though and I think he's always been pretty firm that it is his favourite song HE has written with M.

That sealed original vinyl copy with the hype sticker excites me.

Yeah, KU is a peach!

 

[ZOOM FROM GLOOM]

Yeah, KU is a peach!

maybe too much of a peach.

 

[Juan Dulces]

maybe too much of a peach.

You need Boz on guitar to pull it off.

 

[Paul Gambaccini]

I love 'Satan Rejected My Soul' - such a fun track with great bass. It's a perfectly good album with a few classics on it- nowhere near as bad as the press made it out to be at the time...

Agreed. In fact, I give the album 4 peaches out of 5.

By the soul
Stoned to death
But still living

Maximum drama already in 97
