    The Sweet, brilliant. Brian Connolly was a great front man, tragic how he ended up. Check out his vocals on one of their later hits “Love Is Like Oxygen”:(my favourite, although Brian was sadly already showing signs of health deterioration by then.) Steve Priest was the funny guy, totally bonkers here.

      @@toomuchinformation Yes. Brian’s teenaged mum (Frances Connolly) abandoned him in a Glasgow hospital, when he was a baby and possibly suffering from meningitis. He was fostered by the McManus family and later reverted to his true name of Connolly when he discovered his true lineage, although his father’s identity was never made public. The fella had a rough start in life.

    1:13 what a Monster-Savile was the recipient of numerous honors. He notably was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE; 1971) and was knighted (1990) in recognition of his charity work, which included volunteering at various medical establishments, for which he also raised donations....regards to Edward into the totally sick rabbit hole

    16:43 The Sweet A very underrated band some brilliant musicianship if you listen carefully.
    Also their song "Ballroom Blitz" worth a listen.
    Definitely Chinn&Chapman produced. Pete Waterman so far behind.

    • @justinneill5003
      @justinneill5003 13 годин тому +2

      Agreed, Colin Blunstone (still going now!) should have received more a acclaim at the time. A lot of his work was in association with other big names, including the Alan Parsons Project (“Eye in the Sky”) and some of it was under a pseudonym (Neil MacArthur.) But he did achieve recognition when he was later inducted into the Rock’n’Roll Hall of Fame as part of The Zombies.

    So, Saville looks like he fell onto a mop, Glitter looks like his wig can't quite bring itself to touch his scalp, and the Sweet haven't got a hairstyle, just uncut hair. Together with the stacked heels and the recycled Xmas decoration clothing, the early 70s really were the years that Style forgot.

      @@daffyduk77 i am an american so the first time i saw jim saville was probably sometime after 2000, and yes i could tell quite a bit about him. his interviews were very troubling, as he was combative, manipulative, and bizarre all at the same time. he very clearly had a lot to hide. then when i saw how he wanted to be around weaker groups of people ( young, troubled, vulnerable, impressionable ) i recognized him as a predator. i have a less than professional expertise, but much deeper than the average lay person, of these kinds of persons. i knew something wasn't adding up in england because his behavior was not that hard to recognize, but he was a big shot and had not yet been exposed.
