California Son finds Morrissey exploring his musical influences with an inspired selection of twelve covers from American artists of the 1960s and ’70s. Showcasing his unmistakable voice and interpretative flair, the album breathes new life into classics by legends like Joni Mitchell and Carly Simon, while reflecting the singer’s celebrated taste and unique perspective.
This 2019 release has been praised for its clear, full sound and engaging reinterpretations, with highlights including a “fantastically bombastic” take on “It’s Over.” With collaborations from several notable guests, California Son stands as a worthy chapter in Morrissey’s catalog and offers both fans and new listeners insight into the music that shaped his artistry.
