Brian was Sweet.
Brian Rest In Peace I love you

Why was the attack on Brian never solved and the culprits caught?
It seems to me Brian was very professional back then
Sweet прекрасная группа которая и по сегодняшний день будоражит душу. Очень интересная группа, оригинальная , своеобразная и не повторимая. Ребята все были очень талантливые , фору дали и большинству современных групп. Sweet super ! ! ! 🙏🙏🙏 Всегда в моей памяти, их музыка и песни .
Хочу такую книгу. Где же ее можно купить?Просто мечта!
Thanks for your comment. It's true that Brian's throat was injured by an attack in 1974 and also that Brian often sang at the edge of his range but the two catastrophic factors that destroyed his vocal prowess were smoking 30 cigarettes a day and the mysterious tremors and shakes that began when he was about forty. As for Andy Scott, it's time he had a break. He took Sweet far beyond where it was created to go. He had an iron clad work ethic and so Brian's lateness, no shows and insecurities annoyed Andy. It would have annoyed anyone. No one knew back then at the end of pop's first decade that what they were creating would last half a century and that they would be loved by the majority of their fans for the rest of their lives. They thought it was a job , a part of a career. It was in fact a marriage one which spanned 20,000 offspring. I met Brian at his lowest and it weren't pretty! Happy Anniversary to Andy, Steve, Mick, Brian, Phil,Mike and Nicki. You made our lives all the better with your music and talent. Brian Manly.
Well spoken
They absolutely did Brian. But as for your opinion on Andy Scott, I agree that he was very into taking Sweet so much further,he was ambitious, & good for him, nothing wrong with that! But Brian was Sweet,if it hadn't been for him, there wouldn't have been a Sweet. So Andy should've moved on & created his own band if he wanted everything to go his way. Cause in the end it destroyed the Sweet that we loved. So sad. Love your book 👍👍
I really feel for Brian, going through what he was going through...didn't know his true identity...had his lively hood damaged (vocal cords) feels bad he turns to drink and at his lowest..as frustrating as it may have been for others..being kicked out of sweet must have been a gut punch and heartbreaking for him and then the breakdown of his marriage...yet he still carried on the best he could...much respect and love for Brian x
Brian our Angel ❤
That's awesome. Way to go Norman!
In Brians case! It might have been a combination of animosity from andy putting the songs to high! Pressure from performing attack on Brian on his throat from some thugs! Alcohol jealousy from andys part! He wanted more presence RIP Brian and Mick
Well since i`ve been waiting for this since years (and steves book is so hard to get) I`m going to buy this book as soon as it reaches the shops here in Germany!
excelente grupo musical tienen muy buenas canciones que si siguen tocando serían un éxito ojalá que sigan .sería genial vamos con todo se que serían exitoso
Hi I would love to know more about the sweet and brian. I was surprised to find out that they sung oxygen song. But ballroom blitz, and fox on the run, are my favorite songs. Those songs were good times at that time in my life .thanks.
Awesome, can't wait
@aeonantares44 I understand your feelings but to be fair to Andy Scott Brian was becomming impossible to work with in the latter days of Sweet. Andy was then a very proffessional musician. A perfectionist and Brian fell well short. We love Brian , flawed as he was, he was our idol. His demise was through many reasons and he didnt like Andy either! So why should Andy like him! Lets all try to live and let live during the time we have left. Brian Manly
Is this book coming out in English for the US? I love Steve's book!
ahhhh i have no idea if it will go to the stores in germany, we are a small publisher BUT you can order it on my site and it will arrive withing a week . cccheers or is it danke brian manly
Wow, 2 total flamers
Keeping it very simple and "fair" to poor Andy...Brian and Steve were founding members and as a late arrival Andy was no more than an employee!! If Andy had a problem with Brian...Andy should have left and formed his own karaoke band that he tours around with now and tries to pass of as Sweet!! aeonantares44 Dont hate Andy pitty the poor Bstrd for destroying HIS OWN career. Now hes nothing more than a backing Karaoke king.
Well spoken
Sorry but i disagree when Andy took over from previous guitarist the Sweet started to take off. Everyone of them is almost an equal part in the band that make THE SWEET.
Andy wrote the bulk of songs that were credited to all four members. He agreed to share the writing credits for the sake of avoiding disputes and ill feeling; that demonstrates a very generous spirit IMO
@@TheHumbuckerboy If that is true you are right.
@@leosword7142 Yes, Andy was the principle songwriter within the band with Steve contributing his fair share of lyrics over their career. I think that Mick also contributed lyrically to Action.
No, Brian killed Brian, you know what i mean. If you had a dream, and someone kills this dream with his behavior, then its is time to change it. Don`t missunderstood me, i love the music from Sweet, but i think Brian destroyed his life by hisself with alcohol and drugs. Sad but true.
