Stephen Wright recalls: "Shot at Johnny Marr's house early 1986 - All I can remember is waiting nervously whilst the hairdresser spent a long time on Morrissey's quiff."

Stephen Wright recalls: "A few hundred yards from the Salford Lads Club this is the other end of Coronation Street. The street sign looks as knackered now as it did then!"

A rare shot of the Morrissey and Marr standing close together during a pause in filming the Oxford road show. Stephen Wright recalls: "So this is the saddest Smiths photo for me. It was used on the NME front cover 1993 when the Smiths split. It represents the end of an era of simply great music that had also led to a massive rise in vegetarianism."

Stephen Wright recalls: "This is my favourite Morrissey photo - it is classic young Morrissey. The front stage area at the concert was like a massive rugby scrum, so there was no chance of getting photos. I climbed into the rigging on the side of the stage and hid. I could only afford one reel of film and had to walk home. This was a long way from digital cameras with hundreds of shots on a card! This and the Bum and flowers photo were shot the first time I got to shoot the Smiths and led to the Queen is Dead album sleeve session."

A strange shot but most people at the time knew who it was immediately - Morrissey had toured throwing gladioli around on the 1984 shows Ive always hoped Levis would pay me lots to use it as an advert. Sadly not happened yet! Voted one of NME best rock photos of all time by the NME also used in NME Warchild exhibition.
