"Pashernate Love"
(Morrissey/Alain Whyte & Gary Day)

 

This song was written during the month(s) preceding its live introduction at the beginning of October 1991. It is credited as having been recorded in "North London in February 1992", which points to the initial recording sessions for the "Your Arsenal" album at Utopia Studios in Primrose Hill. Further work may or may not have been done to it during the proper "Your Arsenal" session in March 1992 at the Wool Hall in Bath, with producer Mick Ronson. Musicians on this recording were Boz Boorer (guitar), Alain Whyte (guitar), Gary Day (bass) and Spencer Cobrin (drums).

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

 

This song has only been done 9 times in concert by Morrissey, all at the tail end of the 1991 Kill Uncle tour. It may even have been done 10 times if we take into account the fact that information is missing for one set from that era.
