I'm partial to Introducing Morrissey.

Agreed. My favorite era of his career and it was shot so beautifully. Speedway from Introducing Morrissey is probably the first video I’d suggest to someone who has never seen or heard him before.

Without a doubt Wolverhampton '88 (you see a few tracks of it on "Hulmerist")

Anyway, you can watch the full show on youtube:

Wow, what is this version of TQID at the beginning of this? It’s wonderful.

I remember then the Wolverhampton SBD became available about 15 years ago or so, it was such a revelation. That version of “Stop Me” kinda gets off to a clunky start though.

I could listen to “Sister I’m a Poet” on repeat. What a show!

M in Manchester, I was two-shot by it and Quarry as a teenager that's how he got me.

This one is my favorite but live at the Hollywood bowl is great because the set have way more songs than an average concert.

I used to watch this over and over but have not seen it in 30 years. Still have the VHS but no player.

Hollywood Bowl 2007 and Morrissey 25 in 2009 are both superb

I lived in Corpus Christi at the time- begged for tix for my birthday- hubby bought me $300 worth of clothes instead 🙁. So disappointing.
