[edit] History

Suedeheads appeared around late 1970, early 71. The novel "Suedehead", which I think was a sequel to "Skinhead" was published in 1971.

I would dispute the idea that suedeheads were a separate youth movement from skinheads. The term 'suedehead' was simply coined as a lighthearted tag for skins that had decided to have their hair a bit longer. The clothing styles were exactly the same. Skins always wore formal clothing as well as jeans and boots. GeneralJumbo 17:12, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Title

the name of the article should be changed to "Suedeheads" instead of "Suede-head"

[edit] Disambiguation

Both Suedehead and Suede-head[s] deserve a Disambiguation page, since at present the Suedehead title on the "List of Skinhead books" page, links to "Suedehead", the Morrissey album. Only Suede-head on the "Skinhead" page actually links to "Suede-head", the Skinhead-offshoot. Nuttyskin 23:30, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright infringement

I deleted the text that was copied directly from the liner notes of the Trojan Records Suedehead box set. Much of the information in those liner notes would be a useful addition to the article, but plagarism is not allowed on Wikipedia, due to legal and moral issues.Spylab 18:32, 10 September 2006 (UTC)Spylab

[edit] Morrissey

I don't think the infomation on Morrissey's single, Suedehead should be included as it has nothing to do with the Suedehead subculture, as it even says in both of the articles 7 May 2008 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.2.173.67 (talk) 20:15, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
