SummersRadio™ Concert News + Rare Remix! Morrissey - 'First Of The Gang To Die'/ 'Disappointed' (Manchester Mix)

Morrissey has just announced a fall North American tour and tickets go on sale this weekend! The 33 date tour begins October 5th in Boston and wraps up December 8th in Atlantic City. As you may know Morrissey announced in 2006 that he would not be playing any dates in Canada until the annual seal hunt - where up to 350,000 seals are killed each year - is stopped. Sadly this practice continues and it's a disgrace whether you're a vegetarian and animal activist like Morrissey or not. BUT...

                      

The good news is that while Moz is protesting animal cruelty he certainly has not forgotten his Canadian fans - as he's scheduled a few dates in smaller border cities that perhaps wouldn't normally play host to a legendary artist of his stature including Niagara Falls, New York for southern Ontario fans - and Bellingham, Washington for Vancouver fans! He'll be performing at the Mount Baker Theatre on November 10th - tickets go on sale this Saturday (with a pre-sale starting on Thursday if you're a supporting member of the venue) here: http://mountbakertheatre.com/events/2012/morrissey

He doesn't currently have a new album scheduled for release but the venue's website says that he'll be 'performing the greatest hits from his legendary catalog as well as new unreleased songs'! New songs!! To celebrate this announcement I've decided to post a couple of my favorite Morrissey solo tracks - first up we have 'First Of The Gang To Die' from his 2004 comeback album 'You Are The Quarry'... Enjoy!



This is a rare extended remix of one of his greatest b-side songs - 'Disappointed' - which was the flip side to his 'Everyday Is Like Sunday' single from his 1988 debut solo album 'Viva Hate'. This is the 'Manchester Mix'... Enjoy!

So if you're a Smiths fan and you have $500 to spend you can pre-order 'The Smiths Complete' -Deluxe Collector's Box Set (and/ or the vinyl and cd box sets) from Rhino U.K. here: http://www.rhino.co.uk/

'How Soon Is Now' was first released as the b-side of 'William, It Was Really Nothing' in 1984. After becoming a club and alternative radio hit in the U.S. it was added to the North American version of their 'Meat Is Murder' album, and it was later released as a proper single in the U.K. in 1985 - reaching #24. Although it wasn't one of their most successful singles chart wise, it's perhaps their most instantly reconizable song - particularly for Johnny Marr's opening guitar sound. This is the rather rare extended 'Manchester Mix' of 'How Soon Is Now?'... Enjoy!
