The first should get those feet moving.

My friend is their drummer. Another one of my friends is Mud (and Slades) stage manager.

We have a fair chunk of Sweets gear up at the warehouse. Nobody abuses a guitar like Andy Scott :lol:

Nice Longfellow:-)

All favourites of mine Longfellow. I can remember dancing to ā€˜Tiger feetā€™ at a family Christmas party in about '75 (I was twelve). When I hear the name Mud, it immediately takes me back to that moment.

I loved The Sweet too. Blockbuster was my favourite and I must have played it a thousand times.

The seventiesā€¦ when music was FUN.

Thanks LD, yes so much fun and so experimental with different styles of music. So many big bands survived into the 2000ā€™s as well.

Yes she was a babe in those days Percy then she swanned off with Chris Norman from Smokey.

Heā€™s better without that black leather suit.

Right back to the groups.

These boys already were big hits in the 60ā€™s but I gotta play a couple of their songs (because I want to.) :wink:
I remember singing this first one in the school yard, the second I was in the Steel Works studying a trade that was worthless in years to come.

I remember when Marc died, a group of us walked down and saw the police there , they had the area all coned off.

I will post some more later.

Yes shame about Bolan such a great musician so much talent.
Bloody miniā€™s I have only ever drove one once and the pedals where miniature to my feet ,so uncomfortable as well

Agree with your appraisal of Marc B canā€™t agree on your opinion of minis. Iā€™ve had a load, love them ā€¦throw them about , race them anywhere, theyā€™re brilliant little cars. some idiot once came round the corner on the wrong side of the road smashed into the front of my mini wrote it off , all I had was a slight red bump on one knee .
