Iconic photograph of Morrissey's used to help boost Salford Lads and Girls Club fundraising



The picture of the siblings is Morrissey and his elder sister, Jacqueline, taken in the 1960s, when his family lived in Hulme before they later moved to Stretford. It will be embossed on a T-shirt to be sold by the club after the singer songwriter gave his approval.

"I'm a Beatles fan and I've just joined The Smiths, the best band since The Beatles... yeah I was a bit nervous"

In this episode, we welcome Craig Gannon to tell us his story and talk about his journey through the 80s via some incredible indie pop bands, from Aztec Camera, the Colourfield, Adult net, Cradle, Edwyn Collins, Black Grape and of course, The Smiths.

Craig also has a chilling tale which he recalls fromrecording with Brix Smith in Jimmy page's famously haunted manor, which used to belong to Alistair Crowley!

Now composing music for films and TV, Craig is planning to tour in a new project fronted by Alain Whyte which will also feature Boz Boorer and various ex Morrissey players - one for Smiths/ Morrissey fans to keep their eyes peeled for.

Craig also chooses some fantastic tracks from the 80s for us.

"Wikipedia confidently list me as an ex-member of Slaughter And The Dogs, and an ex-member of The Nosebleeds.

He was wise enough not to reply."
