Book Reviews of Meetings with Morrissey
Book Review: Great read for Morrissey fans, in his own words.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent book with actual interviews with Morrissey. I even enjoyed the part where he actually dyed his hair gold at the age of 13 and it turned purple. He was sent home from school. The photos were quite good including one with Moz sitting in a car smiling in one and staring at the camera and looking funny in the other. Most of it details what the author was doing at the time. I bought this book because he actually spoke with Morrissey. A great chapter detailing Oscar Wilde's influence on Morrissey's lyrics. I recommend the Morrissey in Conversation book by Paul A. Woods.
Summary of Meetings with Morrissey
Morrissey is amongst the most provocative and controversial performers in popular music. From the formation of his Manchester band The Smiths in 1982 through to the release of his acclaimed 2009 solo album "Years of Refusal", his career has spanned 50 UK top 40 singles and 20 UK Top 10 albums. This paperback edition of the bestselling hardback biography gets behind the public image to tell Morrissey's story in the man's own words and explores in detail the extraordinary lyrical content of the songs. It also celebrates the many artists Morrissey has elevated to iconic status - via the lyrics of Smiths covers including Cilla Black, Dusty Springfield, Billy Fury, Marc Bolan and the New York Dolls.Music Books
