For those of you 'of an age' who maybe like me were maybe into bands like the Sweet from the early 1970's onwards, founding member and bassist Steve Priest has passed away aged 72 in California. www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-52933584 The only member of the classic line up now remaining is Andy Scott, who I saw with his UK version of Sweet when they supported Rainbow in 2016. RIP Steve, and thanks for all the music and memories
Slade, T-Rex, Quo,Mud, Sweet etc dominated the charts with glam rock back in the day....such great fun with the platform shoes and flairs....those were the days!! RIP Steve Priest
bought 3 or 4 of their first records blockbuster must be their all time best for me ...funny funny ..b blitz …. 3 definites I bought .. might have been another
Fox on the run was my favourite - but I liked all of their hits - including’Love is like oxygen’ which I think was released around 1975 - probably 10 years ahead of its time in style. RIP Edit - Love is like oxygen was 1978. Time flies!!!
