Flashback's article on Morrissey


In the article on Morrissey the writer Kevin Cummins talks about his journey to a concert and then the people he met when he was there. He does this in no particular style other than as if he was writing into his diary. There are no long or difficult words to understand, it is just like he is writing to a dear friend. It is easy to register that he has had a nice time whilst he was there. He even includes analogies by saying that it was like “the Pope had come to town.”

He does all of this but yet includes only one quote from Andy Rourke about a bass guitar. However this one quote does show a small sense of friendship with another. Mr Rourke calls Mr Cummins by his first name; Kevin. This shows that he must have had a lot of interaction with the band and Mr Rourke.

The design features however wouldn’t be out of place in a Whitaker’s Almanack. All of the photos have a small caption near to them describing the photo and why it is there. Whereas the lead image is big and brash to draw the readers in.
