Record / CD / Tape
Ludus, Morrissey
19th June 2004

Cover of free CD given away with NME, 19/6/2004. "Songs To Save Your Life" compiled by Morrissey. Full tracklisting below.

I love the sleeve (design credited to Marc Jones) which, front and back, is designed to look like an old 60s/70s easy listening compilation. The CD itself looks like a black vinyl record.

"....Morrissey leads you by the hand from spiky punk to sun-kissed country grooves via bands he knows he's influenced and new acts he's now consciously endorsing as the legacy of his talent and work..."
