Disco de Sweet: “Live At The Rainbow 1973: The Complete Live Concert”

This album,is "Sweet" at their best,all the way from "Little Willy" to their soon to be released "Teenage rampage".It includes their only number one hit,"Blockbuster" and includes the song that has since become their anthem,the classy chinn-chapman compilation,"The Ballroom Blitz".It is unlike any other live album,because the songs sound almost the same as the studio.Moreso it shows the group at their personal best!!!!

Sweet's studio work is impressive but always had a contrived feel of pandering for the larger pop audience. Live at the Rainbow is a lesson in history as the album captures the essence of the band playing as a group with an interest in musicianship, breaking away from the pop pandering mold with amazing solos and a good showing of their true nature of wanting to be a rock heavy weight. I highly recommend this album for any sweet fan that wants to feel their gritty nature only hinted at in their studio work.

All original members, live, whats not to like? Great album. One of the most under rated band ever, and on a live album at the top of their game.
