Morrissey
Stephen Morrissey was 13 when he fell in love for the first time - with
The New York Dolls.
He saw the band on television in the early 70s and
immediately flipped for those five glitter-rock hoodlums from the bowels
of Manhattan (he eventually published a book about them in 1981).
In 1982 he formed The Smiths with a local guitarist named Johnny
Marr, and the band burst unexpectedly onto the British music scene in
the summer of 1983 like a breath of fresh air amid the pre-programmed
tick-tock of The Human League and punk's rage-by-numbers.
