Morrissey - Higher Education

I haven't talked about bootlegs in a while. We have here today Morrissey's Higher Education. Please note the horrendous typo (Morrissey's name is missing an 'S').

The sound quality is really good, it seems to have been taken from a radio broadcast. The original concert performance was taken from Utrecht, Holland. The CD lists "July 1, 1991", but real Morrissey nerds will tell you that, in fact, the concert took place on May 1st.^[1]

The company that issued this CD is Italy's Kiss the Stone, and they did a pretty uninspired and boring package. There are some more photos of Morrissey live in concert. The most hilarious thing throughout the liner notes is that there are random equations (get it? Higher Education?).

E=√WR
cos(x)²+sin(x)²
a+b+c=1
C=2πR

Whoever wrote these are terrible. At least take some examples out of a real math book?

The best part is Morrissey's head is on the actual CD. However, there is a HOLE in the center... so you can see right through his head. Higher Education, indeed :/

I've decided to pick "Disappointed" for the song.  I've always love this song live (especially at the end of the set!)  Note random fan screaming out "MORRRRRISSSEY" at the end of the song.

Well, the only good thing about this bootleg is that the sound quality is pretty amazing. Probably the best from this era, in 1991. You have to also remember that CDs were fairly new at this point, and everyone had cassette bootlegs.
