After Lou Reed died on October 27th, Morrissey revealed that a recording exists of the former Smiths frontman covering the Reed classic "Satellite of Love" at a 2011 Las Vegas concert, and that the song would be released as a single.
Now details have been announced regarding the release.
The single will be available for download on December 3rd.
Starting on January 28th, the song will also come on both picture-disc seven-inch and heavyweight 12-inch formats with extra tracks.
The vinyls will contain previously unreleased live versions of Morrissey's "All You Need Is Me," "Mama Lay Softly on the Riverbed," The Smiths' "Vicar in a Tutu" and a cover of Buzzcocks' "You Say You Don't Love Me" that he recorded in London's Hyde Park in 2008.
When he found out Reed had died, Morrissey remarked "He has been there all of my life. He will always be pressed to my heart. Thank God for those, like Lou, who move within their own laws, otherwise imagine how dull the world would be."
