CLASSIC ALBUMS: SUEDE 'COMING UP'

As recounted elsewhere on this site, the very first films I made in my 20s were for Britpop pioneers Suede, so in recent years it felt right to me to go back and make the documentaries about that period. This documentary covers the 1996 mega album Coming Up - which spawned FIVE top 10 singles in the UK alone.

As one reviewer on Letterboxd puts it: "An incredible entry in the Classic Albums documentary series that explore the making of Suede's third album and how the odds were against them following guitarist Bernard Butler's departure during the making of their second album Dog Man Star that forced the band to do something different as it would be the album that would make them international stars."
