- "They've always been deliberately outrageous. They set out to shock, it's part of their plan, part of their image."
Scene spends a day with Mick Tucker, Brian Connolly, Steve Priest and Andy Scott, better known as glam rock band The Sweet. The day begins with a trip to BBC Television Centre to record a performance of their hit single Block Buster!, with all the wardrobe, makeup and rehearsal that entails.
The band have become famous - and in some quarters, infamous - for their outrageous stage clothes, but they have also sold over 14 million records, and have a burgeoning fan club. What does it take to have a lasting career as a rock band? Is the music business really that glamorous? Why have they come in for such a hard time from the music press?
Sarah Ward narrates.
This clip is from Scene: All That Glitters. Originally broadcast 28 February, 1974.

So underrated!! They influenced many bands . Sweet and Slade should be recognized at the rock hall fame ! Such a joke that they are not part of it yet !
Why stress about who is in the hall of fame? Do they even matter ? They are not the authority on rock music....they are a bunch of self proclaimed " experts" who inducted the people they like...bruce springstein and his whole family and roadies and pizza delivery man were inducted. And yet bands that truly deserve it , nothing....hall of fame is a joke!
...
Definately 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍 both bands music still sounds fab today🔥
Wow yes they shaped Rock n Roll definitely.
But they did so much hands on work that they didn't do it the way most bands did so much more that actually they should have floated to the very very top for puting so much more of they're time money and emotional being that they should be with extreme higher ground honors than many other bands .
Sometimes life is fair but not fair enough and with regards to "SWEET" ALL We can say is thank you guys thanks for all the records we can go back and listen to and all the music videos your iconic Gang of focused musicians and fans are and always will be as one ...
One happy family 😊😊😊
Slade and Sweet are still my favourite bands. I want Slade played as I head for the oven.
'Burnin' In The Heat Of Love' should do.❤️🔥💀Regarding that Hall Of Fame rubbish, unless your names Lennon, McCartney, Page, Plant or you're a yank you have no chance.
It's almost exclusively an American club.
Ha ha ha ha
Mick's laugh at 2.56!!! Love it 😂. My absolute favorite band. And forever will be.
Agreed, love his laugh! Mick was the bomb- a fantastic drummer. 🥁🎤😍
I love how they took on the task of managing themselves.
Damn talented band.
they where verry populair ritch charasmatic girls where crazy about them Brian connoly verry charrasmatic. and the songs verry good. in live. etc. love them.hard work. it was not all glitter and glamour. i love it.
The man who produced them went on to open a bike shop in Rickmansworth.
I bought a bike there in 1992
These cats were so criminally underrated, it's unreal.
I never could comprehend how Four talented young men could really Love wearing teased up hair sprayed heavy with ladies hairspray.
To add to the Fem type qualities, they use heavy makeup, eye shadow and they all adopt a sissy type demeanor all throughout their show's and they play it up during interviews.
Just when we think we've seen it all ,
The Glam Boys add the limp wrist look with their bright colored Spandex.
I guess anything to crank out another payday...
As an example...The Band Poison hijacked many of their ideas and expanded on them..😊
Lot of the 1980s music scene wouldn’t have been the same without Sweet to influence it.
“Fem type qualities” “sissy type demeanor” “limp wrist look”…wow, you went all out on this one, huh?
@@chrislestermusic Yeah, I really did on this one.. it's amazing what happens after drinking a bottle of wine and the next day review comments made on my part.
Sometimes I'm embarrassed and other times I'm impressed with myself.
My comments on this one obviously is a bit over the top.
Thanks for your input.
Best wishes.
The 80's hair metal bands owe a great deal to Sweet.
True
I’ve thought that many times too. I wonder how many of the American bands of the 80s acknowledge this?
especially motley crue
Not altogether a good thing Lol!
Nikki sixx worshiped Sweet
Steve Priest, an utter oddity on ToTPs in the 1970s to a schoolkid like me! In the above video he's dressed like a comic Hitler, and I remember this appearance! He used to 'camp it up' for the cameras. A great performer. Rest in peace.
The sweet are a group you’d either love or hate?? Is she joking? I never knew anyone you hated the sweet . Absolutely brilliant
Hahah! Back in the day they said Sweet made the music that your parents would hate. Indeed I once met an old man who complained about all the sirens at their concert
I've known lots of people who hated them. Personally, I never hated Sweet... just their fans who, to this day, persist in over-rating them.
Jealous boyfriends hated them,Brian was beaten up real bad at the height of their fame +.Many zine & news paper reviewers dissed them everytime they released a new album or song.Mick Tucker would often wear a shirt designed to hit back at them saying ' Hit Wonder 13' or whatever number hit they were up to.
@@andrewbroughton65 and jalous boyfriends hated Bay City Rollers too … and Donny Osmond.
50 years ago I knew lots of folks who didn't like the Sweet. Most of those folks are gone now.
Absolutely a precursor to the NWBHM phenomenon.
No Sweet, no Def Leppard, no Saxon, no Iron Maiden.☹️☹️☹️☹️
Spot on.
Yes, Saxon even covered 'Set Me Free' and Def Leppard covered 'Action' both of which were self-written Sweet songs.
Brian Connolly was a very underrated singer, but they were all excellent musicians who clearly worked hard to achieve their success.
Most people only remember sweet for their bubblegum records, blockbuster, ballroom blitz etc, but they were actually a phenomenal heavy rock band whose musicianship and Brian's vocal range could rival and British rock band from that era. Chinn and Chapman wrote their chart hits until fox on the run but their b sides were mostly album tracks written by the band. A lot of bands since took inspiration from sweet and the fact that teenagers today are listening to them 50 years after their only number one is testament to their brilliance. I would guess that anyone watching this is already well aware of their legacy but if not I would urge you to have a listen to their albums.
Sam Brooks.
Their "bubblegum" songs were pre Blockbuster.
@@redblade8160 that's a matter of opinion, regardless i was making the point that they were a far better band than the teeny bopper tunes they churned out for chinn and Chapman.
@@sambrooks7862
You're not listening, you said "bubblegum" songs, and I said their "bubblegum" songs were pre Blockbuster:
1. Funny Funny
2. Coco.
3 Alexander Graham Bell
4. Poppa Joe
5. Little Willy
6. Wig-Wam Bam
@@redblade8160 mate, I've been a sweet fan since I was 7 years old, I'm 58 now. Even as a kid in preferred the b-sides, rock and roll disgrace= ballroom blitz, need a lot of lovin= blockbuster, burning=hellraiser. 50 years later my best mate since infant school and a fellow sweet fan and a professional musician for nearly 40 years actually plays some of their album tracks in one of the cover bands he's in and they always get a better reaction than the chart stuff most people know them for.
Sam Brooks
I know The Sweet's history, but you're still not grasping what I'm saying to you! Let me give this one more try with you. The Sweet's "bubblegum" era was from 1971-1972, but all that ended in 1973 when "Blockbuster" was released.
They evolved brilliantly from pop tunes to pretty heavy rock...the girls loved them and the boys wanted to be them...underrated musicians...top band
I found this by accident, and oh what a trip down memory lane! I loved the Sweet and it broke my heart when Brian passed. That was horrific. So sad, but lovely to see them again in their prime!
One of the best albums ever made in rock history is Sweet Fanny Adams. They went from the pop sweet image to the hard rock and showed they could write their own stuff independent of Chinn and Chapman. I can never get tired of that album.
Sad to think that Brian’s life turned out the way it did.
youre so damned right man
Truth
I bought this album today at a record fair, it’s a gem! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💃🏻
@@patriciabyrne7391 yep. Only magnificent tracks 😊
Unfortunately sweet never had recognition on their albums, they were a singles band
November 1973 Glasgow, my first ever concert and it was Sweet.
50 years ago ! Where has the time gone, jeez.
So lucky! Do you have any photos/recordings?
@@andyw.3048 Sorry mate, only have the memories.
Midge Ure's band (Salvation) were the support act that night.
Such an awesome band! So under-rated. Mick Tucker is in my top 5 favorite drummers. So good! Rest in peace guys. 🙏..To me it was ALWAYS cool to like Sweet!
Yep, took me a long time to realize he was a true badass drummer.
of course its true
It's nice to see them in their heyday and to hear their thoughts about their success after years of obscurity.
Fantastic legendary group with songs that stood the test of time 👏
Ihr wart die beste Band aller Zeiten
Aber jetzt seid ihr endlich wieder zusammen. Wenn ich abends in den Himmel schaue und die vielen Sterne sehe dann weiß ich 4 davon sind eure und sie schauen auf uns herunter. So ich mach jetzt schluss und ich hoffe das der Engel den ich euch geschickt habe auf euch aufpassen tut. Ich wünsche eine gute Nacht. Ich habe euch alle lieb vor allem Mick und Steve die habe ich geliebt. 🎵🎶🎤🎸🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧💖💖💋💋, ✝️✝️🌛
Incredible band once they started writing their own stuff and got heavy. R.I.P., Brian, Mick, and Steve.
Great band, shame Brian died young .
accident?
@chrisM 1972 i see..sad indeed
And Mick. Steve gone since as well. Only Andy still alive.
😢
@@chrisM-vu1xc rock n roll life style
One of my favorite bands. Great vocals, tight fun songs, musicianship and a true Original. They should have been much more appreciated.
They should have been much more appreciated?!! For what, exactly... having most of their hits written by a songwriting duo? They were given more opportunity than most, but messed up.
@@barrymitchell6444 I had no idea. I should have checked the writing credits. Thanks. Regardless they were a fun band and had talent.
@@darkh2o716 They were an act to look forward to on Top Of The Pops. Ironically, my favourite Sweet songs... Love Is Like Oxygen, and Action... were self-written.
Hokey ka ka oh. Sheer bloody poetry?
Ball room blitz is a phenomenal record.
The Ballroom Blitz is a song. NOT a record!
The record would be Desolution Boulevard !!!@@TheWhale2125
The 70s.....what a time to be alive.
The best time in my opinion..
Tucker was a tremendous drummer
Head and shoulders above anyone else in the genre👍
An amazingly talented player and Mick also had a great presence behind the drum kit that most other drummers seem to lack
Rebel rouser!
The best drummer of the 1970s in my opinion. Absolutely phenomenal
I hadn't appreciated that until watching this, but you're absolutely right.
A Lot of fans must regret never seeing them Live especially me
What an awesome band. Love these clips where we get to see them laughing and cutting up together. Mick's so cute here- still makes my heart go pitter patter💓. RIP Mick, Brian, and Steve. You're still very much loved and missed. 💔😥
Great band, the first group i was really into, Steve Priest had a very distinctive look.
In the days when parents would shout through " Call that music?" etc when Top Of The Pops was on.
Yes, my dad only came in to see pans people, or Suzi Quattro, the rest of the time, it was the moan about the music. Ironically enough I did exactly the same with my kids choice of music too.
@@pwareham61 It's the same with every generation: no-one likes the music their kids are listening to!
But the music of Sweet, Slade and T Rex etc has really stood the test of time brilliantly .
@@BadgerBotherer1 Not necessarily. My parents loved rock and my dad cranked up the stereo as much as I did! They took me to my first concert.🙂
🥰😍🤩😘 Sweet. No one could ever replace Brian.
But Steve did a great job 💞💞
What a group of legends. I was born in 1993, but my uncle got me into their music and I just love them since my childhood.
RIP Brian, Mick and Steve
Your music is for the eternity
The 70's was the best decade for music imo. Loved The Sweet. Still play their stuff to this day.
Without The Sweet, there would have been no Queen. The Sweet invented this sound.
100%
Ahhh, I’m made up to see this 😊 I idolised Brian back in the day, still love him now, my favourite band when I was growing up. Sad that he’s no longer with us x
its fascinating and amazing .....
Brian was my childhood hero and I still love Sweet to this day; I am so glad and grateful that I grew up with their music and TV performances !
Same here loved sweet and thought Brian was so cool and I 7
I was very young back zen and then punk exploded into our lives they reminded me of the New York dolls looking back
5:43 I worked with their fan club secretary, Christine, many years ago. A lovely lady and had stories to tell.
It was a great time to be young, I would go back in a heartbeat.
It’s not all as great as it seems, it’s hard work, a lot of boring travel and singing the same songs over and over again. That said Sweet were a very talented band, made some great records.
What a Brilliant and So underrated band, I Love Sweet and always will.
Quality ♥️😋
Mick Tucker British power Drumming 🥁 one's of my top English drummers ❤
Bands used to get ripped off left right and centre by unscrupulous managers and record companies in those days. Remember reading how despite being on totp more than any other band in 1974 mud were only on 50 quid a week and the members of queen were living in dingy basement flats when they recorded bohemian rhapsody. I bet these guys were only getting a fraction of the millions Sweet's records were generating in the early 70s
Bands still get ripped off
Yep, I went to school with Frank.e Torpey's son, they weren't rich. I didn't even know his Dad was famous until I was an adult and he told us down the pub.
@@roasty80 Not, really. Most bands these days release their music independently on internet platforms and musicians unions help them to not get taken advantage of. They also make most of their money from touring as opposed to record sales. It's night and day compared to back then.
@@whynotagain3639 yes, very few people are aware that andy scott wasn't an original member of sweet, he replaced Frank.
@@GhastlyCretin ten years ago I worked for the DWP and one of my clients was a bloke in his early 30s, he was destitute and had been unemployed for more than a decade. He was a former member of a boy band in the mid 90s. They had several huge hits including number ones and sold hundreds of thousands of records over a fairly short period, about 3 years I think. He told me that after hundreds of gigs all around the world and several top 10 albums and singles his total earnings from the entire time in the spot light was less than 50 grand before tax.
very underrated musicianship, THE SWEET are actually quite talented
Correct and I’m sorry to say I was one of the people who underrated them. I was into Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Yes, Emerson, Lake and Palmer. All the heavy Prog rockers. I considered glam rock to be too lightweight for my tastes and so bands like the Sweet went right under my radar. A pity, as there was actually some great musicianship there.
@@jimsimpson1006 Yes, me too. In the 70's all the girls in my school loved them, but I was more into the Beatles and the Stones. I thought they were more of a girl group with their flashy clothes and not to be taken seriously, like Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin or Sabbath, but they were really good musicians and a good live band.
Totally agree, they were very talented musicians - no weak links, great band !
Chinnichap production.
Best harmonies. Eagles' harmony, CSN&Y very beautiful acoustic harmony. Sweet was electrifying.
I was a teen in the 80s but LOVE this band and what a cute video of them in their youth
No videos then to promote , bands like these had to get on the road as they say hard work and graft ,real musicians
There were videos- but apart from the core psychedelic era of 1966-69, or when later, advanced camera and editing effects came in, most of the videos before the 80s were straightforward live performances. The videos were made for ToTP and similar shows to market the groups when they were trying to break America, or one of them was off sick and nobody else could adequately fill in, etc.- or if they REALLY didn't want to meet J****y S*****e for some reason.
Yes not like today’s puppets
There were videos back then. The Beatles and Roy Orbison had made videos. Queen made 4 promotional videos in 1973. Benny Hill made one for Ernie The Milkman in 1971.
Never will forget the glam rock era.. Thursday evening top of the pops..we actually got up and danced to the likes of sweet, slade, Mott the hoople, boland and bowie.. it was infectious and wonderful period in my life... 🥳😀
I was at that show at The Rainbow, fifty years ago this coming Christmas, my second Sweet concert of 1973.
I saw them a few weeks earlier in Glasgow, I was coming up for 14yrs old.
I can still hear all the girls screaming, that was some noise !
Wow, lucky you! If I could go back in time and see any concert, that would be the one. Glad they still have the Hellraiser video from that show!
Steve was always a favorite to watch on stage. I agree with several of the comments, the musicianship of the group was fantastic.
There was much more to them.The bloody bullying press again as well.
i'm wondering when somebody is gonna do 'the BRIAN CONNOLLY story'. poor guy was attacked by a group of u.k. football hooligans who basically just wanted bragging rights for beating up a celebrity (same almost happened to KEITH MOON with a gang of skinheads once) and his life was a steady downward spiral from there.
either way even if 'THE SWEET' were manufactured and didn't originally write their own songs they were still a great band in their own right including the awesome songs they came up with on thier own.
I read his early life story as a teenager in a magazine aimed at teenage girls. His whole life story deserves a television movie.
@@julianaylor4351 agreed. btw, i met STEVE PRIEST here in L.A. he didn't age well i barely recognized him. he didn't wanna talk about 'SWEET' at all.
Sweet wrote many fantastic songs of their own.
My favorite band of all time ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥🤘
Mine too 🥰
👍👍👍
1974 war ich in der 9. Klasse, ein neuer kam in die Klasse und der hatte die damalihen Hits der Gruppe Sweet auf Tonbandkassette. Durch ihn kenne ich die Gruppe. Später bekam jemamd aus meinem Freundeskreis eine Sweet Schallplatte aus dem Westen. Oh! Wahnsinn, jetzt konnte ich ie Musik in Stereo hören. Hab es damals auch aufgezeichnet, war dann endlich bei den Oldie FM Nächten live bei Sweet im Konzert, ein irres Gefühl. Hören und genießen war angesagt, nix abrocken ich musste ganz bewusst zuhören, wie beim Sinfoniekonzert, alle mir bekannten Hardrock Songs haben sie gespielt, außer The Sixteens, der mich auch an meine Jugend erinnert. Aber ich hatte sie live im Konzert erlebt. Top!
Great time in the early 70s with glam rock groups. Loved Blockbuster.
me too friend Tony
Love is like oxygen one off my top ten favourites 👌
Mine, too, that riff!
Ok, this is the one. I've seen many claims to the thrown but THIS has got to be the short doc that inspired the original short Spinal Tap film. Yes, I love The Sweet, and this doc shows their talent, dedication, humor and just flat out intelligence. But I think Rob Reiner saw it and said "let's do that, but for laughs."
Повезло девушке,которая рассматривает письма видеть всю группу,наверное до сих пор их помнит
Я тоже об этом думала, ещё момент мне нравиться,когда Брайану и Стиву моют голову и красят им глаза .Все интересно ,что с ними происходит вне выступлений. Это ❤к моим кумирам.
Sweet, That band made me a rocker. I'm 62 now and still a big fan...
Sweet had credibility in the eyes of their peers - Deep Purple were fans.
Are you ready Steve?! Mick!? Andy!? Let's GOOOO
Thankyou BBC for sharing what I would have loved to see when I was that kid 11-13 buying their every single and LP. Today it was a feel good moment to look back and see behind the stage ❤
Great band. It’s a shame Andy Scott’s the only surviving member.
The commentator asked how long the Sweet will last. It's now late May of 2023 and I still listen to the band. Though I find it disheartening because what happened to the lead singer. We live in a cruel world. Sweet made life worth living as a teenager in the 1970s.
While the Xmas performance exists, sadly the official upload here on YT is censored :( Thankfully I have multiple uncensored copies.
Their self penned 'Action' really showed that they could write a great powerful Rock song.
and covered a lot by others
@@NorbertLangner Lots more Sweet-songs were covered by numberous kinds of bands: Saxon, The Damned, Vice Squad, Scorpions, Pat Benatar, to name but just a few. ;-)
Krokus, steve stevens and many more.
They were very accomplished musicians believe it or not..glam was a vehicle for them..love is like oxygen is probably their finest moment...sad about Brian, definitely went downhill after he was attacked..rip.
They have learned on their way. On the first record they didn't play instruments only vocals. But I loved them and still listen to them.😍
hi there, loved them in the 70s on Top of the Pops, with blockbuster and all the others,sadly missed now
The Sweet Fanny Fanny 1971 Лучшая песня всех времен и народов! Спасибо Свит Брайан Коннолли 1978
That Daimler needs a wash!
It's not exactly showroom quality.
Hard to comprehend that 3 of them are now dead. Brilliant to see them in their heyday along with a Limo clearly supplied by Arthur Daley! 😂
I thought that ! Battered old Daimler drivers door was bent !
@@alanjones6359 Yeah, cracked me up. You've been had Lads!
My favourite band in the early 70s
Sweet, T-Rex, & Slade were the massive groups of Glam Rock of the 70s. I was part of this in my teens growing up with it, and i'm so happy i was there. Thank you. 🎸🎸🎵🎵🎤🎤
Жаль что не изобретена " машина времени " Хотел бы оказаться в 1974 сколько себя помню всегда восхищался этой супер - группой!
А кто в группе играл на клавишных? Я слышу клавишные.
@@kozerogmoskva112 Andy did.
Can't watch this and not think of spinal tap.
Just came on to see how many Spinal Tap comments there are .This is more Spinal Tap than Spinal Tap itself.
That's exactly what came to my mind lol
@@GhastlyCretin Was just thinking myself Nigel's good tonight :)
I dunno,what are the hours?
Well…..some 50 years on, and I am still singing or humming one of their great songs….some testament….wonder how many folks in 50 years time will even recall one song from todays bands…..great band, like Slade who were both very very talented and hard grafters…..
1996 hatte ich Karten für das Magdeburg‘konzert . Leider wurde ein Musiker krank . Mit am Start waren noch Garry Glitter und noch eine vierte Band . Sehr sehr schade , dass dieses Konzert ausgefallen ist. Wir standen schon vor der Stadthalle ja und das wars
La primera ves que los escuche fue en un paseo a la posa larga de Limache en 1972 de hay los seguí hasta ahora.
Brilliant band with great musicians!
Yeah. Just listen to Steve play that solo bass piece.
Супер - группа! Sweet - это абсолютная гармония музыкального мастерства.
along with agroup of mates we saw the Sweet in the early seventies as they were gaining popularity. It was the Mayfare Suite in the Bullring Birmingham which closed years back, it is now TK Max. They rocked the place with their heavy rock tracks which did surprised a lot of the crowd, it was a fantastic night. RIP all.
Really enjoyed this, The Sweet were brilliant, and along with Slade were my favourite glam bands. The had some cracking songs too, 1 number one, and a lot of songs stalled at number two. Some great albums too.
My two favourites also
Here in Germany they had 8 ( in words eight... ) number ones...they had their biggest following here in Germany !
@@drummerman1964 Wasn't 'Defender' also a sizeable hit quite recently in the German charts ?
@@TheHumbuckerboy THE SWEET for me are Connolly, Priest, Scott, Tucker...and it ended for me when Brian left...
@@drummerman1964 Brian was also my favourite .
Great band but it's impossible not to think of Spinal Tap when you watch this.
One of the best live bands ever
❤ Sweet🏆🇧🇾city Minsk, Beloryssia ❤. Thenks, Дзякуй (Dziakyiu), Спасибо(Spasibo), Danke, Merzy, Gracias.& The Teens, ...
This is bloody gold this is...Brilliant band.
Thank you, BBC, for reuploading this and giving The Sweet new momentum💫 There is a sequel to that documentary, we're looking forward for more Sweet content!
They were a great band..awesome songs, damn good musicians 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
My father has a record with the sweet on one side and the pipkins on the other. The sweet are phenomenal, but gimmie dat ding is a hard act to follow
I had that record as well. The Sweet’s side was from before they were famous. Gimme Dat Ding is a classic.
I had this record too. A Music For Pleasure 7in from EMI, I think. Great stuff.
Sweet bol najlepsi
I saw Andy Scotts Sweet in 2019 and enjoyed the concert very much. Thought I was fifteen again. I was so in love with Brian Connolly when I was a teenager. Hope to see Andy Scotts Sweet again. 👍
The Sweet were a great band they managed themselves and they spent their own money and write their own songs also I. had all their albums they had some of their songs written by Nick Chapman and Chinn the Sweet for ever a fan always.❤😊
Great bit of film I enjoyed that thanks
Not much music in this, apparently The Ramones were big fans. ' Blitzkrieg Bop ' is a fairly obvious take on ' Ballroom Blitz '
1973, not 1974. Christmas Day was a Tuesday in 1973 as the floor manager says.
Broadcast in 1974. Filmed in 1973
A great testament to The Sweet: Introduced them to my daughter (who is still only 29) & they became one of her favorite bands. Timeless rock classics by an incredibly talented group !
The musicianship of these four individuals has always been tragically underrated.
These..Slade and T.rex where my gateway into the road of heavy rock...I kid you not..and I'm pretty sure queen owe them a nod to the vocal harmonies.
I think it was the same for many of us.
Queen fans won’t admit to that.
Same for me! I never thought I would like heavy metal and become so obsessed with hard rock until I heard ‘No You Don’t’ and ‘Set Me Free.’ It was nice to take a trip back to the music I was listening to just a year ago. I still enjoy hearing any T Rex, Slade, or Sweet songs mixed in with the Thin Lizzy, Iron Butterfly, and Megadeth songs I play most often. I may just have to go back and listen to more Glam Rock this summer!
Steve is hilarious!
Great documentary, it's a time when the BBC knew how to make great programmes unlike now. Great band and awesome stage presence. They did go on a downer after Brian's attack. Think he was in a council flat in Camden for a while.
The mighty sweet. Long live their music.
Lol, the filthiest limo......
Oh yes brian Steve Andy mick great band
This is Spinal Tap. Which amp goes to 11??
