Suede

In another thrilling installment of "buying things I already have multiple copies of," I finally broke down and got the 30th Anniversary remaster of the first suede album. I had held off because 30 years ago I went to a great deal of trouble to get every single and B-side, including the elusive Brass in Pocket, which was only available as a music paper tape compilation track... but last week I was listening to my old CD copy and thinking that it sounded a bit thin and tinny - and I am happy to report that this remaster sounds excellent!And let's be honest, having everything in one place is nice. Now that I think about it this is the first physical copy I have had of the piano version of My Insatiable One, which at the time I could only find on the Japanese CD, which I never shelled out the money for back then...anyway...Soooooooo many memories.5 stars. 10 stars. A thousand stars!

...a work of art. Beautiful. Amazing pristine sound. Huge difference compare with the original edition.

My husband was very happy with his order.

Okay, here is the deal.....i have read MANY reviews about the SILVER edition of this 2 LP vinyl. Sadly, customers are very disappointed with the sound. There are many different reasons. i have heard that the black vinyl is much much better. You have the right copy for great sound. Wanted to let you know. Cheers.

Just got this in the mail today...with the Brett-signed print of "Metal Mickey" lyrics...I am not really happy with this set at all...now, the original album is 5 star classic and like Liz Phair's "Exile In Guyville" a culturally important and influential groundbreaking debut album from 1993...and it looks nice with the silver cover and glossy pages, but overall, this 25th anniversary box is a more than a tad disappointing...why?? Edsel did not include everything from the 2011 reissue and build on it, mainly the DVD...no vidclips, no "Love & Poison" concert, no Leadmill visual...yes there is an audio of that gig on CD4 though, but it ends/gets cut off midway into the last song!! And the sound quality on it is not very good, like it was recorded from the bottom of a toilet or something like a bad bootleg...the video of it from the last set sounds much better and the last song is not cut off at all. The previous deluxe had a discussion of the album by Brett & Bernard 26 minutes... This box has one from 2013 over an hour long, but their voices you can barely hear and it gets boring QUICK...there are also TV appearances not on the older set as well as a full set of demos, monitor mixes, etc... only partial on the older set...but the extra tracks are the same songs repeated and little difference...there is a new note by Brett, again, not much different from the older set...just wish they carried it all over into the new box...now I had to rebuy the older set...cheap yes...but I wish I didn't have to do it at all, that should be the idea with updated anniversary sets like this...my advice...if you have the older set, don't sell it, and this box is only BARELY optional...nuff said...the 2LP silver RSD vinyl looks great too...gatefold and Silver coloured vinyl..nice...Got the older set in the mail the other day, and usually, I prefer newer sets...this is a rare exception...this new box is fairly useless and a waste of money if you ask me...order the old one and avoid this new one unless you are desperate...sorry Edsel...

Cd di debutto degli Suede, disco che non invecchia mai

I was torn as to whether I should buy this, I already have the album and the b-sides elsewhere but I was intrigued by the remastering.It arrived in an odd package - CDs in a gatefold sized for a 7inch record. Hard to stack with my other CDs but nothing new inside.The album itself though sounds richer and you can hear more layers and detail. This is mostly around the bass and drums but occasionally the guitars also sound more textured. I wondered if I was just misremembering the original but having played it to compare, I prefer the new remastered version - it just sounds more complete.

Del debut de Suede poco se puede decir. Disco perfecto en un momento perfecto. Nada que ver con bandas posteriores.El sonido es impecable. Incluye las caras B que nada tienen que envidiarle al disco original, el típico directo que parece no tener trampitas, un DVD de la época y comp no, e interesantísimo, el "Rare" que ayuda a entender el porqué Suede fueron, son y serán ellos mismos y no la enésima banda clon de la época. Formato en tapa gruesa a modo de libro con anotaciones, fotos y letras. Buen papel, que se agradece.El original es un Must Have. Sí ya se conoce y tiene, la inmersión que permite el box set es interesantísima. Ahora, primero debe de conocerse mínimamente el disco que salió en su día.

I can understand people who bought the deluxe version of this album on CD some years feeling a little peeved about this release - at least if bought on CD. A bit. Sure, a lot of content is the same, but there is content on this release that hasn’t been released before.Where this release really wins is on vinyl. Anyone who bought Sci-fi Lullabies on vinyl will be aware that it didn’t include some recordings: Painted People, Dolly, Brass In Pocket (ok, not a b side) and the piano version of My Insatiable One. To my mind, unless you own the original 12”s, this is the first time these recordings have been available on vinyl within a collection.Sure, if you’re looking at the CD, the great content you may already have on that previous deluxe version - but this is a great purchase on vinyl.The sound of the vinyl brings a little more clarity and presence compared to the standard version.Not a fan of the silver cover, I have to say . Also some people have complained that they thought the actual vinyl was silver. I’m glad that it isn’t - coloured vinyl tends to be poorer quality when compared to its black equivalent.So, all in all, a great purchase on vinyl.

Il disco è una pietra miliare del britpop e non solo. Il debutto degli Suede non è infatti catalogabile semplicemente in questa categoria, alterna pezzi feroci a ballate strappa lacrime. Per i cultori del genere è semplicemente un ottima versione di 25 esimo anniversario in 2lp con copertina in versione alternativa apprezzabilissima. Il primo disco è l’album originale e il secondo è una raccolta di b-sides dell’epoca (pezzi che potrebbero figurare in album vero e proprio, in perfetto stile Suede) e un paio di chicche per la prima volta su vinile (una versione al pianoforte di “my insatiable one” e un ottima cover version di “brass in pocket”dei Pretenders). Superlativo
