Halfway through the year, it's time to rate the chart hits of sunny June. But as World Cup fever hits, there are more (rubbish) songs than ever in the list. Fairly warned be thee, says I...

Ah, well I'm a very recent Morrissey listener so I have no point of comparison- I'd always hated that kind of music, back when I was into more agressive stuff, but lately I've been paddling in the pool of twee and liking what I've found. As such, I have only the most recent two Moz albums- should I be getting into his earlier stuff?

Well, I think they're better, and then his Smiths stuff is better still. Definitely if you like the recent stuff, shelling out for a Smiths best of (a fiver in Fopp I'd guess) would be a good idea!

The best actual Morrissey album is Vauxhall And I, from 1994, I think.

There's less of the homoerotic Mexican gangfight stuff on his older work though!

But the homoerotic Mexican gangfights are what I love about him...

I already have a best of The Smiths but am less keen on them than solo Moz so far. Will try to get my grubby mitts on Vauxhall & I.
