Amazon.co.uk Review
Claiming that "It's either this or prison" but nevertheless capping his most successful solo year thus far, Morrissey performed to 17,183 of his faithful fans at London's Earls Court in December 2004 in a manner (Morrissey's name in big red lightbulbs) intended to invoke Elvis' 1968 comeback special. Thankfully, as Live At Earls Court testifies, Morrissey's life purpose is better served by rock than the jailhouse. Eremitic melancholia, mordant badinage and rancorous avengement. Nobody does it better. In fact, nobody other than Morrissey does it at all. Whether bemoaning surplus hormones on the breathtakingly immodest "I Have Forgiven Jesus" or wishing--rather self-servingly--that he'd been fashionably martyred in the Bavarian snow along with the Busby Babes, Morrissey never fails to raise an eyebrow. He may have spent his formative years with "three incredibly miserable people" but The Smiths' music endures, herein with slight concessions to modernity; Joan Of Arc now owns a melting iPod on "Bigmouth Strikes Again". Many of the titles are taken from the platinum-selling You Are The Quarry. Even the b-sides are grand. "Don't Make Fun Of Daddy's Voice" sounds like The Pixies gone transsexual. Yes, the world is full of crashing bores but please strike Morrissey's name off the list. Again. --Kevin Maidment

Description
'Live From Earls Court' was recorded at Morrissey's triumphant comeback shows at Earls Court in December 2004. This album combines the highlights of Morrissey's career and his time with indie legends The Smiths, all performed in his own inimitable style.

I was at the gig in question last Christmas and it was awe inspiring. This is a true icon on better form than he has been in years singing songs that define a generation. It sounds great. Buy it and cherish it. The smiths songs are just incredible.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?

I have seen him twice this year and his live performances are fantastic. This album captures Morrissey in fine voice and is a great addition to any collection. Great Album, B-Sides and all!  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?

Standout tracks are all The Smiths tracks as well as the amazing 'Don't Make Fun of Daddy's Voice'. I am not sure where that track came from. There is also a truly amazing version of 'I Have Fogiven Jesus' which would spellbind any audience! He may be getting on a bit (aren't we all) but Morrissey has proven all his critics wrong and is back in a big way, sell out tour and a new album which is said to be his best yet!! Can't wait.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you? (Report this) › See all 6 customer reviews...		Most Recent Customer Reviews This light has never gone out.....
