9/8/2010 - Morrissey a Sua Maestà: “Basta copricapo in pelliccia per le guardie reali”
Morrissey lancia un appello a Sua Maestà, Elisabetta II d’Inghilterra, affinché si cessi la produzione di copricapo in pelliccia per le guardie reali. Il cantante britannico, vegetariano ed animalista convinto, ha scritto una lettera un quotidiano inglese per sensibilizzare la monarca a non adoperare più pellicce di orso per i colbacchi militari: “Vorrei lanciare un appello alla Regina, so che è difficile trovarsi nel ruolo in cui si trova ma vorrei esortarla a non far più produrre per le sue guardie copricapo in pelliccia. Salvaguardare i diritti degli animali è un dovere, Stella McCartney si è già offerta di disegnare un colbacco in pelliccia sintetica, si eviterebbero tante morti inutili e tante sofferenze agli animali”, sostiene Morrissey.

Morrissey's letter to The Times
Hats are not worth killing for: guards wearing real fur reflects the human spirit at its lowest
Sir, I welcome Ann Widdecombe’s views on the depravity of bear-baiting in order to serve the vanities of the British Army Guards (Opinion, July 30). In the humanised world, of course, hats are not worth killing for. Yes, animal rights move different people differently, and there are even those who think that animals simply have no right to be, but there is no sanity in making life difficult on purpose for the Canadian brown bear, especially for Guards hats that look absurd in the first place, and which can easily be replaced by faux versions (thanks to the visionary Stella McCartney) with no death involved.
It is difficult not to look to the Queen herself — after all, they are her Guards, and she must surely be aware of the horrific process utilised to supply real bearskins for her Guards. The mere sight of each bearskin hat must surely jab at the Queen’s heart.
Protection of animals makes for a responsible life. The world is speeding up, and in order to assist humankind to advance we all strive in many ways to be a better “we”.
The brain speculates, but the heart knows, and there is no clever distinction in trapping and skinning bears for petty considerations based on vanity. Concern for all beings — human or animal — is a kindness and a goodness that springs from somewhere much deeper than Royal duty, and like it or not, the Guards wearing real fur reflects the human spirit at its lowest.

13/7/2010 - La EMI ristampa la raccolta "Bona Drag" con nuovi brani Secondo la webzine True to You il 27 settembre la EMI ristamperà il primo album/raccolta di Morrissey. "Bona Drag" fu la prima raccolta di singoli e b-side che il Moz pubblico nel 1990 dopo lo scioglimento degli Smiths e la pubblicazione di "Viva Hate". In questa occasione la major rielabora la versione del disco espandendola con tracce inedite e un update dell'artwork. Stranamente c'è l'approvazione di Morrissey che di solito è restio a queste operazioni di marketing. Questa la tracklist aggiornata:
Bona Drag 20th Anniversary Edition 01 Piccadilly Palare 02 Interesting Drug 03 November Spawned a Monster 04 Will Never Marry 05 Such a Little Thing Makes Such a Big Difference 06 The Last of the Famous International Playboys 07 Ouija Board, Ouija Board 08 Hairdresser on Fire 09 Everyday Is Like Sunday 10 He Knows I'd Love to See Him 11 Yes, I Am Blind 12 Lucky Lisp 13 Suedehead 14 Disappointed 15 Happy Lovers at Last United * 16 Lifeguard on Duty * 17 Please Help the Cause Against Loneliness * 18 Oh Phoney * 19 The Bed Took Fire * 20 Let the Right One Slip In (alternate mix) * * tracce inedite (fonte: true-to-you.net)
Bona Drag: 20th Anniversary vinyl and CD editions release information To celebrate its 20th Anniversary, on 27th September, EMI will release through the resurrected 1960s Major Minor label, with Morrissey's full cooperation, a remastered Special Edition of Bona Drag. Originally released to much acclaim in October 1990, Bona Drag perfectly captures Morrissey's effortless transition in becoming a solo artist. It brings together his exceptional first seven singles, four of which went Top 10: his triumphant Top 5 debut, "Suedehead"; the anthemic, apocalyptic lament to wet seaside towns, "Everyday Is Like Sunday"; "The Last Of The Famous International Playboys"; and "Interesting Drug". The Top 20s "Ouija Board, Ouija Board", "November Spawned A Monster", and "Piccadilly Palare" and a selection of high quality b-sides from the singles complete the album. The compilation has now been remastered and overseen by Morrissey, and is updated with the addition of six previously unreleased and much coveted songs from the era:
- "Happy Lovers At Last United" (Outtake from "Sunday" sessions)
- "Lifeguard On Duty" (Outtake from Viva Hate sessions)
- "Please Help The Cause Against Loneliness" (demo) (Outtake from Viva Hate, previously covered by Sandie Shaw)
- "Oh Phoney" (Outtake from Bona Drag sessions)
- "The Bed Took Fire" (early version of "At Amber")
- "Let The Right One Slip In" (alternate long mix)
Directing the artwork for the reissue, Morrissey has chosen to return the cover art - taken from the "November" video - back to its natural colour, so his shirt is black. In addition, he has also decided to update the back and inner artwork with a selection of favourite, hand-picked and rarely-seen photos. The LP version will be a double heavyweight 180g vinyl, housed in a wide-spine sleeve with a pull-out poster. The CD will be housed in a gatefold, card sleeve with an eight-page booklet, which will contain the aforementioned photos. (source: true-to-you.net) |
