O/T R I P Steve Priest

The Sweet were a band who introduced me to music , first record I ever bought with my pocket money was Blockbuster .

Without wanting to sound like a total generation music nob head .

You guys today haven't really got a clue have you .

RIP Steve and thanks for the memories , we all die but music never does .

Not sure there’s anything to compare with in contemporary music to how hard these worked.

Yes, often loading and setting up their own kit

No real electronic gadgets to make them sound better

A world of transit vans and working men’s clubs where they were second on the card to bingo

Absolutely mate. Getting a record deal was like winning the lottery.

I’m 46 and I don’t think I could tell you a number 1 for the last ten years at least.

With you there, in my world Sam Smith is a beer

But he’s so upset and lonely isolating in his mansion.

Yeah, both of him

Their second album ‘Sweet Fanny Adams’ took them away from their pop music to more rock and this is where they faded away from their chart fans.

My favourite Sweet track has to be ‘Love is like Oxygen’ ..... a great sound in its day.

RIP Steve rest well Sir.

They were always a Rock band if you took the popular singles and flipped them to play the B side you would think you was listening to Deep Purple.
