Saint Morrissey

[Jimmy Clitheroe sat in the Rovers having a pint of]

Has anyone purchased the book Saint Morrissey yet? If so, what is the overall verdict? & what does the book actually cover? (Obviously Morrissey content, but is it his life story? or review of his works? or ???)

Thanks

Hey Jimmy, loved the show by the way......
the 'book' you speak of is crap. It is the usual middle-class, flowery, sentences using moz lyrics, nonsense.
The guy wot wrote it (R.I.P. little ern), was one of those who moved from a comfortable university attending dinner on the table warm socks on the radiator type home to 'slum it' in a working class poverty stricken part of Manchester. Don't it make you sick? Well, it sure pisses me off.
Yours, from a working class poverty stricken part of Manchester (cos i've got no choice).......Ben.

Saint Morrissey ain't Morrissey

Saint Morrissey is rubbish. Very boring, very stuck-up. Full of errors eg; "The Boy With A (sic) Thorn In His Side" etc. It's like reading a very dull dissertation and tells nothing about Mozzer because there's no research, just some bloke listening to the records and making pompous observations. The cover's shit and at £17 it's a f***ing rip -off. Worst £17 I've ever spent this side of a particularly bad curry in Stoke Newington the other month...
