Morrissey is one of my big heroes, so pretty much whenever he ever does anything at all, I am totally interested. Morrissey recently listed his Top 13 Albums of All Time, and they are killer, as expected. Gotta love the choices, especially the standard VU, Patti Smith, Stooges, and Jeff Buckley selections.
Also, on a completely unrelated topic, Moz is re-releasing his immortal 1988 single Everyday Is Like Sunday on September 24th. One of the greatest songs of all time, remastered in September.
Here's his list in full:
1. New York Dolls - New York Dolls (Mercury, 1973)
2. Ramones - Ramones (Sire, 1976)
3. Patti Smith - Horses (Arista, 1976)
4. Nico - Chelsea Girl (MGM, 1967)
5. Iggy & The Stooges - Raw Power (Columbia, 1973)
6. Sparks - Kimono My House (Island, 1974)
