stewblack Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 I really liked them back in the day. Bizarrely they formed a bridge between glam and punk in my musical journey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JellyKnees Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 The girls in my primary school used to love them, along with the Osmands and David Cassidy. It's a stinky poo business... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steantval Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 I thought the thread was meant to be a joke, teeny bopper music as it was known way back, bloody awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EssentialTension Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Just now, NoRhino said: I think the original drummer served time. Having looked it up, it seems it was the manager who went to prison. The drummer got community service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My sister also went to see The Sweet in concert in the 70’s and hated it, she thought they would be playing stuff like their chart records, they were in fact playing playing really heavy rock songs 😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flat Al Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Alan Longmuir was a plumber by trade and fitted the kitchen sink in my Mum and Dad's old house just before the Bay City Rollers made it big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
