When you look back to the 1970’s and the huge amount of talent in the charts and touring live, there are some that just were always head and shoulders over the rest. For me the ‘golden three’ I remember most as a very young kid were T-Rex, Slade and The Sweet. Of course as I grew older many more were added to that list, but it was the harder edge of The Sweet that I really loved about them, because behind the bubblegum hits there was a great hard rocking band! The more you listen to The Sweet the more you are drawn to the band compositions.
Over the years it’s been great to catch up with Andy Scott on a semi-regular basis: he’s wonderful to interview and always has a new story to tell. With The Sweet undertaking their Australian Farewell Tour later this year and new music on the way we had to chat again!
