The Sweet The Ultimate Collection 3 CD Set
The Sweet The Ultimate Collection CD
Few bands typified the early 70s as much as Sweet. They first came to prominence dressed like hard rockers, but playing bubblegum pop - 'Co-Co', 'Wig Wam Bam' - before embracing the emerging glam rock movement and becoming regulars on Top Of The Pops. Smashes like 'Block Buster!' and 'Ballroom Blitz' are very fondly remembered by glam fans, and subsequent singles 'Teenage Rampage' and 'Hell Raiser' chased them up the charts. The band then moved towards an increasingly rocky sound and hit big with 'Fox On The Run' and 'Action'. In all Sweet had one chart topper and five number two singles.

This 3CD collection brings together singles and key album tracks from the band, including those huge glam rock hits and three late-60s A-sides ('Lollipop Man', 'All You'll Ever Get From Me' and 'Get On The Line') which haven't appeared on a Sweet best-of before now.
