Sparks to release limited edition 'Morrissey' single

Sparks have announced details of a Morrissey-referencing limited edition vinyl single, to be released this March.

The Mael brothers are planning the release to coincide with their upcoming London Forum shows, which see them perform two of their albums in full.
