Eisport Halle - Berlin, Germany May 16, 1976

[liner notes]

The Sweet were considered a "Glam Rock" band.
That genre was defined by only a few Groups.
Outside of Kiss and The New York Dolls, there
weren't very many that could really put on a
great live Show. They consisted of Brian Connolly,
Steve Priest, Andy Scott and Mick Tucker. They key
to having them reach a larger audience was when
they began with "Funny Funny." Well, if they
wanted to go to the 'sugary' side of pop charts,
they picked the right name. When they utilized
a more 'hard rock' Approach, the began having
sucess in the UK with "Block Buster," Hell Raiser,"
"Turn It Down," and their Anthem "Ballroom Blitz."
The Sweet were much more popular in Germany and
other European countries. Here in the US, they had
a bigger following only after "Ballroom Blitz" their
first hit for Capitol in 1975.

This Show is a good as any live Performance you
will hear by the band. Energetic good old fashioned
hard rock. They were technically very proficient and
deserve another listen ... especially live.
