Litter On The Breeze - A Suede Podcast
An unofficial and non-afilliated podcast about the music, the stories and most importantly the fans of the band Suede. A non-chronological look at - eventually - every LP, every b-side, every huge show, every important TV performance, and yes every bit of upheaval that is central to the band's story. It starts and ends with you!
Litter On The Breeze - A Suede Podcast
Select Magazine - April 1993. With Andrew Harrison
Litter On The Breeze returns with an episode I always hoped I'd get to do at some point, but never imagined it would be this soon. Yes, I am talking to Politics Podcaster, music magazine editor and all-round chap Mr Andrew Harrison. Yes, that Andrew Harrison! In the course of today's episode we discover how he became the editor of Select Magazine and what his aims were for the publication, and then look closely at the in/famous front cover of Brett Anderson superimposed in front of a Union Jack, complete with the words 'Yanks Go Home!'. We find out where the idea came from, how it was all put together, and of course the wave of reaction it caused and still continues to cause!
I hope you all enjoy listening to this one as much as I did recording it ; very much a bucket list item (if people still say that!).
Show Notes:
The invaluable Select Magazine Scans page. Most of the editions themselves are incomplete, but everything you need re April 1993 at least is there.
"70 quid", indeed...!!!
Here's Pet Shop Boys' version of 'The Dark End Of The Street', as mentioned by Andrew.
