Sweet – Rebel Rouser: Four Sweet Classics 74-77

The 2013 Martin Popoff ebook about the making of four Sweet albums.


I know, I know, I’ve had many requests for a whole darn Sweet book, but this is the best yer gonna get: 60-odd pages of yummy Sweet talk on the astonishing run of four albums the band drew up and blew up from 1974 to 1977. Note: they can be purchased separately, but for simplicity’s sake we decided to offer as a package—and at a package price. So here they are, the Ye Olde Metals on Sweet Fanny Adams, Desolation Boulevard, Give Us A Wink and Off The Record, (A)ction-packed, droll humour from the band’s two surviving members, Andy Scott and Steve Priest, excellent trivia on the writing and recording of these killer early heavy metal masterpieces, and alas, musings on the tragic disintegration of Brian Connolly toward his drink-related death in 1997.
