Morrissey is 64 years old, and his voice is only going to hold up for so long before age starts to take it's toll. If he waits until both 'Bonfire' and 'Without Music' get released before he starts recording the next one, he might be in his mid-70's and sounding like Leonard Cohen eating a bag of gravel. Might as well stock up on material whilst the vocal chords are still strong. We'll hear all this stuff eventually (even if it's only posthumously). And at worse, we'll have a few more new songs to hear live on tour.What’s the point in yet another album being recorded for none of us to hear????
Which producer should be next is a tricky question. I do think Chiccarelli has worked sonic wonders with the often sub-par material he's been given, but it might be time for a change. What's frustrating is the Andrew Watt situation - he's the hottest thing at the moment, and his work on the new Rolling Stones material I've heard has been fantastic - yet 'Rebels Without Applause' sounded appalling. I don't understand what happenned there.
