Friday, January 18, 2008 There Will Never Be a Greater Band Repeat after me: We want Sweet! We want Sweet! We want Sweet! ![]() I picked this up on a whim at a Friends of the Library sale, and have never been more satisfied with a purchase. Sweet is the perfect band. Three parts Queen, and two parts Electric Light Orchestra. Sometimes they sound like the Cars, at other times the Beach Boys, and sometimes like the Talking Heads. All of that in a glam rock package and some of the most infectious bubble gum pop I've ever heard. Parker has virtually memorized the album. So have I. Yes, it's that fantastic. ------------------------------------------------
