Though my days of buying music documentaries on DVD are long behind me, but one that I would have happily paid for – Mike Nichols’ 2019 Suede documentary Suede: The Insatiable Ones – I couldn’t. It was originally aired on UK network Sky, who do a remarkably good job of making sure their programming is […]
Coming off of Suede’s astonishing North American tour-closing show at Massey Hall last Friday – Manics were also great, but Suede’s first Toronto show in a quarter-century owned the night – I was reminded of a time, not that long ago, when a Suede show anywhere, let alone a run of excellent new records, seemed […]
