Biografía

Sweet (referred to as The Sweet on albums before 1974 and singles before 1975) were a popular 1970s band. Although Sweet were largely known for their image, and several hit singles ??? many of them being so-called teenage anthems ??? they also released several albums throughout a ten year career. The extent of Sweet's domination of the charts in Europe resulted in eight number one singles in Germany, with pop oriented tunes as "Co Co", "Little Willy", and "Wig Wam Bam". Sweet's success continued with more rock oriented tunes, such as "Blockbuster", "Hellraiser", "Ballroom Blitz", "Teenage Rampage", and "Fox On The Run". The group had a world-wide following (clocking up no less than 18 top 20 hit singles) and were most notably popular in the UK, Germany and Australia. The classic Sweet line-up consisted of vocalist Brian Connolly, drummer Mick Tucker, bassist Steve Priest, and guitarist Andy Scott. Sweet are perhaps best remembered for their stage clothing - glitter, platform boots, chain mail shirts, and makeup - practically defining the camp extreme of the look. Scott would later say it only happened because they needed an excuse to meet Top of the Pops dancers Pan's People and reasoned that going to the make-up room was a good method of doing so. In late 1978, Sweet stayed at The Town House studio, Shepherds Bush, London, to write new material for their next album. Just before
