"The Missing Link Between the Shangri-Las & the Rolling Stones..."
Lately I've been diverting my mind with Johnny Rogan's "Morrissey & Marr: Severed Alliance." It is a weighty tome. Thick as the King James Bible. Johnny Marr and Steven Morrissey meet, (finally) around 200 pages into the book. I do love books about Pop Culture that treat Pop Culture like High Culture.
It almost seems like a miracle when Marr & Morrissey meet. We know what they don't know. We can marvel that these two Manchester youths will join forces and become a dynamic songwriting team of great distinction.
I love Rogan's description of The Smiths and their music... "the missing link between the Shangri-Las and The Rolling Stones..."
Thrilling. Cool.
