Morrissey Bona Drag

"...It makes an uplifting whole, as album tracks, the songs flatter one another...All the things he used to condemn in the early, boring days of the Smiths, sex, dancing, cigarettes, eating, political conviction, videos, are a hoot for him on BONA DRAG..."
4 stars out of 5 -- "The pick of the bunch is 'Lifeguard On Duty'. It's wry, funny and serious.."
"Much of the actual content of the record suggests an artist in rude creative health....He's totally alien to the blissed-out slack-jawed baggy mood of the moment, and all the more invaluable because of it."
4 stars out of 5 -- "Great tunes, provocation, dark humour and glass-half-empty-emotional dereliction -- British pop seldom came any better than this."
"...this record achieves everything it sets out to do..."
3 stars out of 5 -- "[With] extended and embryonic versions of tracks, and a back room mentality that shows Morrissey really was a creative powerhouse in the late 80s."
