I was there too! I have footage from Morrissey's walk up to the building but I'm having trouble recovering from the disc. Hopefully, I'll be able to post it soon.
I had a random thought of an interview I listened to with Morrissey and Richard blade at kroq, when I was a teenager. I look it up and there it is... unbelievable! But I could swear this was in 1989, not 1990..??? I also recorded the interview but god knows where it went. I met Richard Blade in 93
Brent Little Too young for something like this to happen to me but it must’ve been a crazy experience hearing it again after so many years. Probably 89 because Bona Drag obviously wasn’t out yet.
Thank you so much for posting this and making it accessible to everyone who otherwise would not have even heard of this, it is very much appreciated, thank you
This was the last time The Smiths could've realistically reunited. Moz didn't have a band at this point, it was that quiet period after Viva Hate and it was before Kill Uncle. He even expressed here that he would take a phone call from Johnny and start up The Smiths again. Once he got Alain Whyte and Box Boorer after the recording of Kill Uncle in the studio that was it. Oh, what could've been....
Reunion means nothing really. They did what they could and no more. Keats died a5 25 - it's pointless to speculate what he might've written; we should be grateful for what we have.
I wouldn't ever put faith in something Morrissey said concerning The Smiths. He was probably well over the whole affair and was glad to be on his own, basking in the reverence
Take me out tonight because I want to see people and I want to see life really I love him sosince meeting him at pier 84 in N.Y.C. Me and my wife Toni love you Steven
Oh My Lordy Pops, It is good that you like your music so enormously because, when We get back together, We will get to continue to listen to enormously good music😘🧶🐅✌️with our children🌻👑😺😸😻👑🐐
On Sept 13th, 2001 in Portland, Oregon, 7441 days ago, You reached out into the crowd and Asked for My hand. I reached back and touched You with a "YES" in acceptance and the light is not going out because it is shining Your way back to Me so We can get on with our purpose...
You shouldn't go vegetarian for Morrissey's sake. He's just raising awareness. You should go vegetarian for moral purposes, possibly sparked by Mozz's concerns. Therefore, if you enjoy pig flesh and aren't swayed by the aspect of murder, eat your damn pig flesh! I'm sure Mozz would forgive. Pickle solved.
I loved bacon for 40+ years n since around February I can't stand it anymore. The smell and taste is now dirty to me. Sausages also turn my stomach. I want to love them still but don't. Eat what you want mate. No pickle here. Listen to Moz n eat yer bacon. Enjoy. 😁
Morrissey and the Smiths are my favorite artists of all time.
Mine too. So proud to be from the same city as them.
Wow. I actually had this exact interview on this cassette tape pictured!
I was there outside that day! thank you for sharing!

Superb interview..and we heard Morrissey laugh a couple of times..a rarity in itself!
I have the impression that he laughs in most of his interviews. Many of the songs too are humorous.
I appreciate this tape with Morrissey and hear him talking about personal and worldly situations. Thank you.

Stay here with all of us FOREVER
Omg...love this. Richard Blade is the nicest person.
Morrissey is amazing, but growing up on Southern California, especially in the South Bay of LA, Richard Blade was king.
Morrissey has got that droll British sense of humor...love it. I think Richard's questions may have set him up with all the funny lines, tho.

Wow what a great interview. Fantastic
the "del taco" commercial is quite ironic...
I produced that show🙋🏻♂️
Strange, but the music sounds so different in this recording to the digital version on Spotify... Far more heady and i somehow hear it more clearly
This is great thanks for sharing!!

my favorite moz interview
I was there at the KROQ building when he went in through the front door. Wave of fans pulling on him.
🖤
I remember listening to that live.
nintendo? what?- morrissey
SteVen, let US open an ice cream shop together!!!
Excellent interview, thanks for sharing. Out of curiosity, is it only the songs that are pitched/sped down, or is it the entire interview?
Just the few glitches due to imperfections in the tape.
Oh my… I went on to be @ Your Arsenal concert.
Take me out tonight because I want to see people and I want to see life really I love him sosince meeting him at pier 84 in N.Y.C. Me and my wife Toni love you Steven
I may have chased after him shortly after this interview...lol whoops...when you finally realize how powerful you really are....😵 lol
Can't believe they hid the beer and tequila in the car...

I'm going to call Faces International and see if it the number still works.
I'm in a conflict, a pickle if you will.
I adore Morrissey but I can't abstain from bacon.

Have a pickle.

Oh, ye of little faith.
I SWEAR WHEN THIS MAN LEFT THE SMITHS HE LITERALLY TURNED SO MANLY ITS A JOKE
thats true xd I was waiting for this comment! I'm not sure how I feel about it tho
i love it
When the interviewer gets the title of There Is a Light wrong... criiiiinge
Like you just did, you mean! 😂
@@jimnewcombe7584 double cringe
This ends when Richard Blade cautiously brings up Johnny Marr. I suppose this is when Morrissey abruptly walked out with his pet hamster.
