Meetings with Morrissey - release date, cover art
2nd May 2008
Finally, there's a cover art to the book Meetings with Morrissey by Len Brown, which is now due out on the 2nd July, 2008 by Omnibus Press. The picture, taken from the old The Smiths days, has been taken by Kevin Cummins at Tatton Park in September 1983!
The book, containing 400 pages, is announced as follows by Amazon.de:
"This book gets behind the public image to tell Morrissey's story in the man's own words and explore in detail the extraordinary lyrical content of his songs. A former NME writer, Len Brown has interviewed Morrissey more times than any other journalist. He was the first writer to talk to Morrissey about the death of The Smiths and the birth of the singer's solo career. The book will celebrate the many artists Morrissey has elevated to iconic status - via the lyrics or Smiths covers including Cilla Black, Dusty Springfield, Billy Fury, Marc Bolan and The New York Dolls. It will offer in-depth insight into Morrissey's lifelong commitment to promoting the genius of Oscar Wilde".
In Germany, the english book can be ordered in advance for EUR 13,99.
UPDATE 19/05/2008: The release date has been put back to October 2008 again on the Amazon site.
