Japanese whispers


So this must be one of my favourite magazine covers. Like said, the Japanese were obsessed with Suede and that shows in their music magazines. This one, Music Life, has not only a Suede cover, but also an inside article running over 16 (!), yes sixteen, pages.

I'd call it one of the best portraits ever made of Brett. Photographer was Tom Sheenan, a rock music photographer.

The inside article has more portraits, studio and live pictures. The articles have probably been taken from English magazines. The last pages even feature Suede associates like Saul Galpern from Nude. The Japanese tour and discography are announced, and there are T-shirts to win.
