Music appreciation

[GazzaBTFC]

Of course, talking about gay and image...does anyone remember The Sweet? Musically very good (and fun) but I cringe now I see pictures of 'em cira "Blockbuster" and "Hell Raiser" time.

[CANV EFM]

they were the nuts.. never forget the time on TOTP's ,when 16 million people watched it, and he broke the mike stand over his knee..

totaly mental in a time when riding yout bike on the pavement meant 3 years in borstal

[CANV EFM]

and the man at the back said everyone attack..

 

happy times

[GazzaBTFC]

Oh I remember that...that was "Hell Raiser"... He did that live as well.

 

The "b" sides of their singles were top heavy rock as well...Coo "b" sides of singles..."sigh"...what a great era that was...

[GazzaBTFC]

And then he quotes Ballroom Blitz!!!

[Northern Monkey]

At the time of the Sweet et al. every band seemed to have a "puffy" one

the Bloke in Mud for example (Rob) Dave Hill in Slade. all of Bay City rollers. and then the wonderful homo-erotic leather clad Alvin and not forgetting Suzi Oh the delights of the 70's

I love Slade, i think Noddy is lovely!!!!!!!!!!

[Northern Monkey]

Big influence on Oasis you know were Slade

[CANV EFM]

everyone think slade = merry christmas and thats it.. they sold an absolute [****!!****] load of records that today so called stars couldnt even dream of..

Slade were fking hardcore, but most people can't see beyond the daft clothes and sideburns.

 

 

[Northern Monkey]

[Claire!]

Yes, Oasis covered a track of theirs on one of their singles!!!!!! Although for the life of me i cant remember which Oasis single it was, or which Slade track it was - i'm flagging it abit today!!!!!!

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

It was Cum On Feel The Noize on the flip of Don't Look Back In Anger.
