If they had debuted in '81 they'd be huge. The world wasn't ready for Sweet.
They were huge! They sold over 35 million albums worldwide
they were absolutely massive in their own time but i do agree they could have dominated the 80s as well had they stayed harder instead of going the softer route they did later
I agree with ya brother. People really didn’t get them in the early to mid 70’s. These guys were extremely talented. Andy Scott is the only one still alive. I loved them. Their best songs never made the radio. Maybe in England but not here in the USA
I don't know. I couldn't see Sweet trying to compete in the technorock world of the 80's
@@johnking8896 Unfortunately yeah. Rock that wasn't soft/pop rock got really technical really quick
Metal was getting huge. Reflects in a lot of bands at the time even if they weren't metal, like any recording of KISS live during the mid-80s have them upping their songs' tempo just to keep their energy matching their competition.
Really heavy, almost progressive song - love it, brillant vocals too!
It boggles my mind how talented each of these guys were. Really mind blowing. So incredibly hard to believe that they are not in the rock hall of fame. You can hear how they actually influenced other bands that came along later.
Ah Steve is like the coolest ever and Andy reminds me of EVH in this video
Hairstyles too lol
Fuk the rock n roll hall of shame...
They've put in ALL KINDS of groups who wouldn't know rock n roll if it shit on their lawn..That place is about making money, thats it.
They'd put in M n M or fukn Glen camble so long as it made money and the artist or group wouldn't have EVER PLAYED A NOTE OF ROCK N ROLL..F A C T
FUCK the rock n roll hall of fame. They put in a ton of acts who had fuck all to do with ROCK and EXCLUDED A TON OF ACTUALLY TALENTED,WELL KNOWN ROCK ACTS. THEYRE ALL ABOUT WHO PAYING MOST AND WOULDNT KNOW ROCK AND ROLL IF IT SHIT ON THEIR LAWN...
Because the R&RHF is very politicized and Sweet was the band everyone loved to hate. I keep hoping it will happen while Andy is still around. But with his cancer at a stage 4 diagnosis. It's anyone's guess/.
This is VICIOUS! For 1974, are you kidding me? Sweet were so far ahead of their time.
Could not agree more!
They already in the. 80,s
The bass
About four years later than Deep Purple.
Гений.
Music that never gets old. Great job guys. RIP Mick Brian and Steve xoxo
This music has stood the test of time.
When these wanted to rock, they could definitely hang with anyone. Mick Tucker is one of the best drummers ever
All of them were masters of Heavy Metal.
👏👍😥R.I.P.
It's not hard to tell this band completely went over some people's heads back in the day lol. They were absolutely mind blowing sounding that heavy in the early/mid 70's.
Mick Tucker the Greatest
Absolutely!
Love this song also, and what a vocal from Brian. The one and only, no one can ever replace you for sure. That's right, without you, it's not Sweet!
Everyone, hear me out. THIS IS HEAVY METAL!!! Sweet were more than just an average rock band. They were pioneers of Metal. They were right up there with Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Led Zeplin, and Judas Priest.
I kinda hear a Blackmore fire in that lead/solo at the end
I hear. Ritchie. too
If you didn't know this was Sweet, people would think it was Deep Purple. Once Sweet gained more freedom to make their own music, they became an excellent hard rock band. Sadly some people think it was allWig Wam Bam and Little Willy
It's true, Meow ! ...Sweet F.A. and No Ya Don't
yeah, some people couldn't see past the glam...
Sweet should be in the rock and roll Hall of Fame! Long Sweet forever! 🎤🎵🎸🎶🥁
Sorry, they had to make room for Joan Jett, Tupac shakur, and others first
The RRHofShame ain’t good enough for them
SWEET FA
@@UnitedSoundVideo that says it all. It's our little secret.
They should demolish the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and replace it with huge statues of the Sweet...
It means nothing to Brits, like the fake pyramids of Vegas.
My first vinyl album in 1974 was Sweet FA. Still love it today!
Amazing musicians sweet where, for 70s glam band, well impressed
Sweet F A ,one great Sweet song, amazing at the time and now and forever. Kings of Glam!
Born in '64 and I'm just discovering how many songs I knew and loved from Sweet, never knowing it was them!
Same age as you, did you not own desolation boulevard when it came out ???
@@ronmurphy8863 I think my older brother had it on 8 track. Again, music was all around, but never connected the dots.
I was born in '63. In '77 I bought my first album, Aerosmith, Rocks. Soon after that I bought my second album, Sweet, Desolation Boulevard. It didn't take long after that for me to start looking in every record store around in case they had a Sweet album I didn't have yet.
The most underrated rock bands ever, ahead of the game never got the credit they deserved
Agree agree !!!!
Sie waren schon ziemlich erfolgreich, bekannt & anerkannt, also wat Sie schreiben ist Schwachsinn
Nur dit immerselbe Blablabla
They should been more into heavier rock after their greatest album from -74. After Fanny Adams came Boulevard, then they lost it.
They definitely were big stars in the seventies. They could have been more than a teenie band, that is true. They really could handle their guitars.
This Band is way underrated!! Excellent musicians.
Огромное спасибо за сборку. Она совпала с годом 42 с женой жаль что нет . Бони. Таилер.
They WERE BIG in their time
You listen to "Love is like oxygen" and then "Sweet F.A." and you'd swear it was too different bands. Both excellent!
Add a song like "Coco" into the mix and you make it seem like three different bands. 😁
@@rocknrollkissfan add in Jeanie or California nights you’d think it was four
That's what separates great bands from the others. They evolved
@@randyr5328 I mean the Beatles didn’t really evolve
Beatles are the prime example of evolving
Andy Scott is one of the most underrated guitar players ever! Blistering glam!
Yes he is.He is amazing some of the things he can play
I saw them open for Kiss and my mind was blown. One of my favorite bands ever!!! They gave Kiss a run for the money big time!
This was Sweet at the top of their game. Sweet Fanny Adams is one of the great hard rock albums of the 70s and a huge influence on me. Sheer brilliance.
Agree.This album is fantastic for me long time ago & now.
Toller rockiger Song 👍👍👍👍
They were the start!
Great hard rock album ever.
Fucking right sweet was a badass band my favorite song sweet fa
Absolutely brilliant band..love hearing that bass line by Steve Priest. Love The Sweet
This album beats most of the well known popular "classic" metal & hard rock albums of the 70's
You can feel the joy and power, hear and see it! It is absolutely super!!❤ what a band! ❤
I love how they appreciated & respected each other’s talent and skill! Such a joy to listen to all these years.
So schön zu wissen das die Sweet immer noch viele Fans haben! 👍👍👍 Super! 👍👍👍 Einmal Fan immer Fan!🎸🎸🎸👍👍👍🎸🎸🎸👍👍👍🎸🎸🎸👍👍👍
R.I.P. Steve Priest...Mick Tucker...Brian Connolly.
i am 60 were is the time gone im sweet fan from 1972
Holy shit only one of the band is still alive. Thats horrible. Which one is living
@@johnnymfan5065 Andy Scott(guitarist) is the only surviving Sweet member.
And thanks!♡♡♡
@@brigittejaschkowitz508 Sweet fan for life!!!🤩🤩🤩
I loved these guys and everyone thought I was a freak back in the day. Still absolutely love them!! 🔥🤘
Yeah. My pals back in the day laughed at me when I said I was a Sweet fan. Always banging on about Purple, Sabbath or Clapton. I loved them too but I was and still am a Sweet fan.. This track kicks ass big time and there were many more as well
I used to come home from school and blast Sweet on the stereo till my dad got home after work.
I adore this track! Sweet Fanny Adams (1974), the best album Sweet ever! A masterpiece!!!
Love You Brian Connolly and sweet forever!! 💕💕🇧🇷🇧🇷
All I ever heard from Sweet when I was young was the usual Ballroom Blitz. I had no idea they played like this. Really an eye opener to their true talent. Fantastic.
Ballroom Blitz is the best song of the 70s,-- the unique Sweet's style , hard rock of Sweet sounds ordinary like other similar bands.
Go, Chris. Obviously You are real rock and roll boy
@Chris Blythe
Give a listen to some of they're harder stuff like "Set Me Free" off of D.B.
@@hgpiiihgp Set me Free was on the album Sweet Fanny Adams. Desolation Boulevard U.S. version is a compilation off the both European versions.
Yes, I have always dug Sweet F.A. my favorite song by them.
I say this as a compliment that Sweet was Spinal Tap. It was pure authentic rock that was fun, surprisingly sophisticated at times, pompous at times but still in a fun way, over the top and at the end of the day out of this world
Criminally underrated by so many, what a GREAT band! \m/

⚡This never gets old⚡
This song is fantastic. At first I was bummed when I didn't see Brian and then there he was. They are all so excellent. Andy is fantastic on guitar. Steve is great on bass and Mick just tears it up on drums. These 4 guys made magic over and over. They were far beyond their years. I will always love the Sweet. R.I.P. Brian and Mick....two angels flying too close to the ground and heaven decided to bring them back home to play in the band in the sky.
They were happy...

1974, I was a 12 yr old Aussie born girl of Greek immigrant parents, and grew up on the music of the greatest Greek singers and Dean Martin, Tom Jones, Doris Day, Shirley Bassey. Then, SWEET came along with Fox On The Run, Ballroom Blitz, and Action. Now I'm 61 yrs old and this retired University Librarian wench, still LOVES to crank up music by the legendary SWEET, such an underrated band, with four extremely talented guys, which were sadly beset by bad luck. Mick Tucker is the GREATEST and hottest drummer ever, next to Queen's Roger Taylor. And the unforgettable Queen and Thin Lizzy were my other faves. The voices of the 3 late, greats Brian Connolly, Freddie Mercury and Phil Lynott, were AMAZING. I'm so grateful I grew up with the very BEST music from the 70's and 80's; with Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Rolling Stones. As for women, no one could surpass the phenomenal, Linda Ronstadt, Gloria Gaynor, Donna Summer, Stevie Nicks, Tina Turner and many more.
How deliciously good is this! Such fun to see how much fun they are having themselves. Love them so much. And that bass and those drums are nothing short of orgasmic!❤🤩🥰
Absolutely fantastic! Full-on metal riff.🤘🎸 Superb rhythm section as always and Brian's great voice. Just a great band. '70s rock rules!🤘
Such good musicians. Nothing coming up to replace these true stars and icons. So so sad that Brian, Steve and Mick are gone.
Rest in peace all♥️♥️♥️
Дааа!!!классные ребята классные музыканты,молодцы?там кто-то заметил,что молодость ушла и было асё под запретом а щас всё пожалуйста.многие из музыкантов молодо ушли в мир иной?пусть им всем земля будет пухом 😂🎉😊❤😮
Mick was so energetic, non stop playing the drum. Great performance.
I love Steve and Andy interacting with their instruments,along Mick with a smile and Brian with his amazing voice,man these guys are Gods....
As a teenager Sweet were Gods to me and I worshipped the church of Sweet!!! 🎸🙏❤💋😎
Mick looked like he was really enjoying the moment during their Musicladen appearance. The other performances that they did on this show especially on the song " No you don't " he was smiling as well. He really looked like he was having fun up there performing and the joy was evident. As far as I'm concerned they all really shined in this appearance. THEY threw down & shed the notion & image that they were merely a bubble gum pop band who were Chinn & Chapman puppets.
@@jonbenjisnomore7935 Few rock stars conveyed joy as much as Mick Tucker. The man radiated happiness. Rest In Peace dear Mick. Forever in our hearts.
My god it’s mimed you do realize right?
Des gars simples, qui jouaient avec beaucoup de plaisir, sans prétention,et des morceaux remarquables !👍
Просто высший пилотаж!!! Душой и телом отдохнула! Все-таки как классно,что мы сейчас свободно можем насладиться ими,без всяких запретов и возможностей! Вот бы еще вернуть молодость!!!...
Здравствуйте ! Мне очень нравится , когда женщине нравится старый , добрый РОК ! Здоровья Вам ! Одна попсня кругом .
@@СергейОрлов-э7я Спасибо. Музыка 60-70-80-х-вся моя жизнь,особенно,зарубежный рок! Всем любителям хорошей музыки-здоровья и долголетия!
А они под запретом в СССР кстати и не были, Мелодия их песни на кругозоре выпускала еще в 70-е.
@@ячс-е2рЯ не имею ввиду сильные запреты. Я жила а то время,знаю,как было. Всё слушали,как могли. Возможностей таких не было.
What an awesome vocalist Brian Connolly! No one has ever been able to fully replace it: without it, “Sweet” is not “Sweet” !!! R.I.P. Brian...
Amen! Agree 100%!
Cut From the Rest and Identify Crisis are among their best records
Fanny Adams is one of the best hard rock albums of all time!
I've seen your coments in many music videos specially in prog tunes......Nice to see you here my ethereal friend.........
@@brunovallesmunoz4757 good to see you too my friend!
Been to concert by them in 70s in Scandinavium so good on stage the songs came in my mind after a week the concert after seen them live B Connolly M Tucker S Priest Rip must Postumt say bravo bravo Bravissimo ☆☆☆☆☆
Wow you were lucky to see then
Разве так можно было хорошо играть? Четыре гения в одной группе под названием SWEET,
мое сердце с вами❤👍👏
Самое обидное, что серьёзными рок-музыкантами их считали далеко не все. Подмочили они себе репутацию песенками для подростков - а ведь потенциально были посильнее своих прямых конкурентов из Queen!
@@Blind_Brother Ну это вы зря. Если они что-то и подмочили, то только в глазах музыкальных зануд-критиков, которые от нечего делать делят песни на "для подростков" и "для пенсионеров". Песня или заходит или нет. А в каждой композиции (даже проходной) чувствуется огромный талант группы. И чтобы не говорили, Sweet заняли свое почетное место в ряду самых выдающихся рок-групп
Мой вход в рок мир начался именно с этой группы. Одному богу известно сколько тысяч раз я прослушал шедевры созданные Sweet
У меня тоже самое. И до сих пор слушаю.
То же самое, один из из. Sweet, Slade и только потом DP and LZ
Я начинал Beatles,Creadence,Shocking Blue.А вот The Sweet,Suzi Quatro меня захватили по настоящему и потом уже пошли Slade,Nazareth,Uriah Heep и другие.The Sweet это для подростков начальный хард рок.Но я слушаю его и сейчас.
@@andreygavrilov8680 а я переключился на другое. Kansas Queen Genesis. Тройка моих любимых в отдельности от всех остальных.
@@artemtynshuk6947 так мир музыки огромен.Всем что нибудь найдётся.Kansas вчера слушал ,не понравился.Но я роком не ограничиваюсь,сейчас прямо слушаю Аманду Лир а до этого Fanny Adams слушал.
Queen loved this band
Queen did their best to copy this band, but Queen wasn't good enough to be Sweet.
What a singer. Brian has a killer voice. the whole band was great
Впервые услышал эту банду когда мне было лет 10-12 ..матросы моего батюшки познакомили меня с этой музыкой ..сейчас мне 64,но до сих пор слушаю...
One of the best things bout growin' up in the far north of MN in the '60s and '70s was all we had was the radio, vinyl or casettes we didn't know glam rock from hard rock from... it was ALL ROCK! We got the music not the silly costumes, and Sweet kicked ass right up there with the best! RIP Steve Priest and thank you boys for some really kick-ass songs!
As a teen, I loved their high energy rebellious songs; Fox on the run, Action, Blockbuster, Teenage Rampage I still get goosebumps when they come on.
Das waren die hammer 🔨 🔨 Zeiten von the sweet grüße aus Berlin
I think a lot of heavy metal bands were influenced by the Sweet, they just don't admit it!!!
hard to admit it probably. i dig them quite a bit too, it's just incredible how glam they looked but they played hard as hell
Quite a number of the 1980s big hair bands have admitted that they were influenced by Sweet. Def Leppard is definitely one of them.
@@glamgal7106 oh i believe it, theirs no questions they were heavy
Def Leppard are Sweet fans, remember their video of 'Rocket' and they made that fantastic cover of 'Action'
Motley Crue & Def Leppard were influenced by The Sweet!!!
Mick Tucker - great drummer!
You're right, man, for the 70s, he threshed like a god.
Yes Mick was a superb drummer - and he was probably the best looking drummer in rock and pop history too!
Agreed! I didn't realize until recently how good he was. Tricky song to drum to this track.
@@HarryWebb46 @0:34 Mick lost the Stick on his Left (snare) Hand... Grabs a New one as fast as lightning and does NOT miss 1 hit... Pay attention to that .. Remember this was played Live !!
@@Hanzey1966 I have done it too! Once you do it once it plays on your mind and you keep doing it until you can figure out a way to bypass that mental program. I know from bitter experience! That does not mean he was not a really good, overlooked and under appreciated drummer. He certainty was!
Боже! Как же я их всех люблю! Красавцы!!! Каждый день слушаю
Моя любимая группа, до сих пор слушаю.
R.I.P Steve, now you are with Brian and Mick ❤️❤️❤️
And I bet they are rocking hard and heavy!
From Glam Power pop to full on hard rock & progish heavy metal!
Not only do you hear what influenced Kiss, Motley Crue, Def Leppard
& the like,
But as you can hear also Priest, Saxon & even Iron Maiden!
Sweet did it all!
Notice the back of Steve's outfit it says "Fuck You!"
Yeah no more "pop" for these boys!
They wanted to be badass!
& they're clearly loving it!
Yep, I hear the breakdown riff of Parasite by KISS, and the entire 1st line lifted for Motley Crues Girls Girls Girls - Friday night and I need a fight!
I hear Venom and Mercyful Fate too
@@markdp1983 I heard Priest in No You Don't
indeed, Sweet is most progressive band I know if we talk about "progress" itself )
@@markdp1983 so wright
My big brother had desolation boulevard I loved ever song!
В 70 начало80 винилы стоили дорого, записав свит услышав их голос, ищу их, слушаю, круто
One of the best hard rock bands of all time by far!!!
"Fanny Adams" - это вершина творчества группы,более величественного я от них не слышал...вошла в меня как пиво в песок,в жаркий день! Это был далёкий 1974й год,я ходил в7й класс,слушал "голос америки"-субботний вечер,там Валерий Осмоловский представил эту группу....с тех пор СВИТ - навсегда!Это история,но пока группу помнят,вспоминают и слушают - группа бессмертна!Они сделали историю!!!
Мне 60. До сих пор слушаю))))))))

Красавцы , хочу в 1974-ый вместе с ними , этот музон просто возрождает !!!!!
Учась в школе,знал только по пластинкам гибким Мелодия-какая недооцененная группа,слушаю с удовольствием и считаю их такими же Великими как и общепризнанные в то время у нас в Союзе🔥🤘💯🤘🔥
My favorite band of all time. The Sixteens being my favorite song of all time. Long live The Sweet !!.
These guys were such GREAT musicians and tight and polished live. RIP Brian, Mick and now Steve :)
SWEET is inducted in my rock and roll hall of fame!
Я в восхищении.
Какой чистый звук, хоть и электрический! Каждую нотку в аккордах слышно, такое только в симфонических оркестрах бывает, но там ведь нет электричества!!!
Браво!
Телестудия Radio-Bremen Musikladen TV Live 1974. у них очень жесткие требования к звуку были вплоть до закрытия в 1984-ом году, даже шлюха Мадонна оттуда со своим "Хуедеем" начинала уж не знаю прости господи как ее туда пригласили.
The musicianship in this band is out of this world, they were rocking long before a lot of the other bands but they never get a mention. Criminal
Спасибо за ностальгию и за прекрасный вокал Брайана Конолли !!! А какая инструменталка - супер !!!
Да они все поют неплохо!
Динамично
А помните мы под этот рок шалели и друк у друга красивые туфельки просили на прокат чтобы под эту музыку немножко повыпендриваться
Убей меня Бог - Квины взяли от Sweet мощно....
@@muho-mor Вполне возможно
Класс!!! Нет слов! Одни слезы на глазах!
This is my favorite band from the first time that I heard them as a teenager !!!!!!!!!!
Очень круто ,первый раз услышал в 1978 году ,сейчас слушаю и вспоминаю детство где мне было 13 лет.
Very underrated one of the best bands of all time absolutely ahead of their time am so grateful for their music and the shear joy they played with Rip Brian, Mick, and Steve. Rock on Andy😊
WOW! they were so ahead of their time I could watch them all day Mick was a fantastic drummer he was always my favourite.
RIP Steve Priest..amazing bassist and talent
One of my favorite band of the 70's. And Still......
...в 80х балдели и оттягивались под SWEET...и это было так здорово,...так откровенно.... Мы все любим их за то ,что они были нам дблизки и далеки ...Они лучшие...вот и всё, ЧС то хотел здесь сказать...❤
Похоже здесь высадился десант русскоязычных поклонников SWEET ! Столько комментариев на русском !
SWEET достойны наивысших похвал ! ✌️✌️💖 😎 .
В точку!!!
Группа просто бомба.А ударник гений.
В 1 классе была,кгда эт музыку слушала,,,До сих пор обожаю,,,старшие братья приучили
@@elenaroslik1218меня брат научил старший.
A hard rocking tune so far ahead of its time. Love it!
Soooo heavy....Sweet at the top of their game....love em!
Badass song!! Crazy solo for Andy and Steve it's just amazing!!
Got to love it! As good as Brian is, almost wish they had just let them play!
This is a great clip; clear and sharp. Musically it reminds me that there's a historical connection between Sweet and Deep Purple.
There's a few connections: Andy Scott got his red Gibson ES-335 because of Ritchie Blackmore, Ian Gillan was in a band with (Sweet drummer) Mick Tucker, and Ritchie Blackmore joined Sweet for their encore at a gig in 1976.
Cool ! Every time that I see Mick sitting behind the kit, he always looks poised and clearly knows what he is about as a drummer. Andy played really interesting guitars throughout their career including this natural finish Fender Stratocaster; I love his playing here. Steve was obviously enjoying himself on stage here and Brian was a fantastic frontman as always !
Hi! Where are you from? I´m from Finland. This song and especially this performance....OMG!!!! Fantastic! Wonderful! I have no words to describe this :) !!! I LOVE THIS!!! I love them all: Brian, Mick, Andy, Steve
I'm from the UK. It's virtually impossible for me to pick my absolute favourite song because there are so many ! A few years ago I had the privilege of having my Listener's Top Ten favourite hit singles played on my local radio station and my choices kicked off with 'Love is Like Oxygen' ( which is Andy's favourite) and it sounded great to hear Sweet being blasted out over the airways ! I also love 'The Sixteens' ( which was Brian's favourite) and so many more. 'Blockbuster' made a massive impression upon me when I was a child and 'Hellraiser' was the first single that I ever bought and I still have it ! 'Little Willy' was a favourite of mine from even earlier. Their hard rock B-sides were also great and one self-written B-side that was a lovely vocals dominated song that I have always loved is 'You're Not Wrong For Loving Me' . BTW Steve's favourite is 'Fox on the Run' I'm not sure what Mick's favourite Sweet hit was .
TheHumbuckerboy I have listened Steve´s interview, and he said, that his favorite song is The Sixteens. I don´t know, maybe I´m wrong??? You are from UK, haven´t you listened and watched X Factor UK, and the finnish vocalist Saara Aalto?
The video where Steve was talking about 'Fox on the Run' is the following ...' Best of Steve Priest of Sweet on " Focus in the Mix with Denise Ames" form 8mins 52 - 11 mins approx. It sounds like 'Fox' is probably his probably his favourite ( although he doesn't mention 'The Sixteens'). I have heard Andy stating that 'The Sixteens' is the best song that Chinn/Chapman ever wrote . No sorry, I have never watched the X -Factor .
TheHumbuckerboy brian said he enjoyed singing the sixteens more than any other song
Самая яркая и блестящая ( в буквальном смысле тоже) хард глем группа середины конца 70 х годов прошлого века
С днем рождения, Брайан, белокурый ангел, Спасибо за то что пришел в этот мир, Любим и помним ❤,,,,,
Sweet FA, what a track! Still can’t keep my eyes and ears off of Micks amazing drumming.👍🥁
So blessed to have grew up in the best generation ever wish i could go back in Time ✌
The 70s were bad ASS .
These musicians definitely complimented each other musically and vocally!!!!! Wow!!!!
Mick Tucker ..... lots of drummers wish they were as good
He was absolutely amazing so underated.
mm good boi

@@freddyagain3843 The poser with the twirling drum sticks.
for me the best track of the album Mick the best drummer ever Andy and Steve pure class Brian genius vocals
Заново теперь открываю для себя эту группу, хоть жил уже в те года, но не все их альбомы тогда в СССР можно было услышать.
Этот уровень аражировок, что представлен в этой композиции, я наивно так полагал, что появился много позднее!
Восторгаюсь неизведанным
Любимый концерт, Обалдеть 74 год пролшлого века
Preist MIGHT have been starting to go this route in 74. Maiden wasn't even "born" yet. This is psycho, proto everything. Sweet were waaaay more than Blockbuster and Little Willy. The musicianship in this band was off the chart.
I truly believe if Brian Connolly could have gotten himself sober (or at least control his drinking) - Sweet would have been a powerhouse throughout the 1980's! Was there any band more perfectly suited for 1980's Glam/Hair metal than Sweet?
@@billsager5634 I agree!
@@billsager5634 I don't think you can blame it all on Brian, tbh. The attack (or 'hit' on him as Steve calls it in his biography) must have had an effect on him surely, I think he probably had PTSD, as well as always seeming to be the one on the outside of the guys and Andy's thinly disguised contempt for him must have made things difficult at times. I think that's mainly why he left the band. The problem is always when a band loses such an outstanding and loved frontman, how to carry on? The Stones have survived losing two guitars and a drummer now, but would they have survived losing Mick? Probably not.
