"Born To Hang"
(Morrissey/Mark Nevin)

 

This song must have been written at some point in 1990. It was recorded in December 1990 at Hook End Manor with producers Clive Langer and Alan Winstanley alongside other material that was meant to appear on a planned rockabilly mini-album. Those plans were shelved, the other material recorded at the same session was mixed and released on subsequent singles, but not "Born To Hang". Musicians on this recording were Boz Boorer (guitar), Mark Nevin (guitar), Alain Whyte (according to some sources, guitar), Jonny Bridgwood (double-bass) and Andrew Paresi (drums).

 

Despite having been recorded more than once in the studio, this song was never given an official release.

 

This song has never been performed specifically for radio, television or the web.

 

This song has never been done live.
