Vini Reilly

I saw Vini Reilly at Pizza Express. At lunch time today, I was returning videos on Lapwing Lane and as I left the shop, I saw him sitting on his haunches in the door of Pizza Express, smoking a cigarette. He had very large headphones on, and was nodding quietly along with the music. Even hunched up he looked like a collection of odd angles, with a long face that you can’t mistake for anyone else.

Vini Reilly is the Durutti Column and released albums through Factory Records. He played guitar with many other groups, not the least being with Morrissey on his first solo album.
