Isn't that akin to the words "Jimmy Page will not be involved" or "Donald Fagen will not be involved"?

... but "Coming Up" is the all-killer/no-filler desert island selection. They were always excellent live too, so this should be a good night, though it's not clear if it'll be a full gig or one of those 6-acts-doing-20-minutes-each charity events, though it would be a shame to reform just for the latter, and I'm sure this will be taking the temperature for a proper reunion, too.

It always disappointed me that Suede were airbrushed out of Britpop so quickly, for me they were better than any of the others of that time.

...the love for Coming Up here.

For me, Dog Man Star is their masterpiece. Coming Up was inconsequential in comparison.

and don't forget the stream of early singles with killer b-sides, Coming Up's good and there's some top tunes on it but they lost me with Head Music

Were entirely different bands.

The former were one of the greatest British guitar bands of all time, the latter an above average indie pop band.

As enjoyable as Coming Up is, I find it odd that anyone would prefer Trash or Filmstar to the likes of Animal Nitrate or The Wild Ones.

Having said that, I do have a fondness for She's In Fashion from Head Music.

Would like to see a tour / album.
I *love* Suede in all their forms.
They were my band.

Dog Man Star is for admiring the craftsmanship

Coming up is for slapping your arse and clapping above your shoulder alternately down the indie nightclub

I love them both dearly and am thrilled.

Jon Whitney is right.

However the real classic is disc one of Sci-Fi Lullabies. Killing of a Flash Boy, My Insatiable One, To The Birds, The Living Dead, all classics.

I loved Suede back in the day, bought all the singles, went to all the gigs. Even though I was on team Butler when they split, I was surprised at how much fun Coming Up was. Neil Tennant described Trash as (and I paraphrase) as a perfect ice-rink record - you could imagine it coming over a tinny, ice-rink tannoy and it would still be perfect.

Me & fjp got backstage at a Suede gig once and ended up giving Neil Codling a lift. Recounted here...

I feel they are unfairly overlooked in the Britpop history. They were the first British band in a long time to be ambitious, to want to be number one, coming after Madchester, shoe-gazing and Carter USM, they were a breath of fresh air.

Briefly talked to Bernard Butler after a McAlmont & Butler gig once, he was probably the nicest musician I ever pestered.

PS Any opinions on The Tears. Disappointing album, but they were great live.

The first two albums are "albums" albums, while the third is more a collection of singles. So difficult to call but ten of their greatest moments which should convert a non-believer are...

My insatiable one
Drowners
Breakdown
Stay together
Wild Ones
Together
Daddy's Speeding
Trash
The Chemistry Between Us
Everything will flow

is beautiful and overlooked.Dog is a bit of a masterpiece, 1st album's very special. Coming up was very good and I must say though I didn't much like Head Music, I thought Elephant was great great fun.

both the tv show 'seven ages of rock' and the semi-official britpop history The Last Party give them their due. also the recent MOJO special had heaps of stuff about them.

the REAL overlooked band / album from the mid to late 90s is Mansun and their album SIX but that's a debate for another time.
