"Morrissey has urged loyal fans to steer clear when the big music labels re-release his old tunes"

TheWza [Edit] [Delete] 11:59, 17 August '09

Mozzer has asked fans not to buy either a planned boxed set of his solo work or a re-released set of CDs and vinyl from his days with the legendary Smiths.

The EMI, HMV, and Parlophone record labels in November plan a boxed set of Morrissey singles and B sides from his post-Smiths years spanning 1985 to 1999.

But Morrissey told the True to You site: "Morrissey does not approve such releases and would ask people not to bother buying them. Morrissey receives no royalty payments from EMI for any back catalogue, and has not received a royalty from EMI since 1992."
