Whatever Makes You Happy: The 'Coming Up' Era 2

Litter On The Breeze returns by looking out of the window and taking in some of the sights, sounds, and oh yes, smells of Suede's 'Coming Up' album! Today we are joined by another Person Who Was There In The Nineties in the form of Cllr Richard Lawley , with whom I have been known to attend the odd Suede gig  - as you will hear about! In addition, we discuss how he got into the band, how they compared with other acts who happened to be around at the time, and a story about a purchase that he would come to regret..! 

After that we take the usual detour-strewn trip into parts of the album itself, picking out some of our favourite moments!

And stay tuned to the end of the episode for some news on the future of the podcast, both short and long term (Don't worry - it's staying!)

Show Notes:

• 'Beautiful Ones' was indeed on 'Shine 7'. Track Two, in fact. Track One? Only bloody 'Flying'!!
• That 'Anthems' album thing is long lost from my collection, but i recently re-discovered that back in 1999,I recorded some tracks from it onto the second side of a C90. 'Trash' wasn't one of them!. ('No Code' by Pearl Jam was on Side One, for those keeping score)
• Yes, still a dream guest...
