if you want to admit it or not-sweet is definitly one of the most influantial rock bands ever...no doubt...
Who? Deep Purple, Led Zep.. Maybe hairstyles at best.
@@seltaeb9691smh
Queen copied Sweet in every way.
@@seltaeb9691You don’t understand what influence means! No, it doesn’t mean, there was a thousand bands that sounded like them( Zeppelin) it means It got people off their arse’s!! People were blown away by them. They were my Rock Gods and I met and hung with them. (Influenced by.) 4 sho! I will tell you this, Sweet sound fresher today then Deep Purple, who by the way are Andy’s influence.
@@VStrom2019 So did Motley Crue
What a freaking show that was. The energy is so over the top. Brian Connelly was a ROCK GOD. This band should be to the Rock Hall Of Fame but no one there is educated enough in the art of rock to know it.
They are so much better than they were given credit for. When they shook off Chapman and Chin and the glam thing they became a world class act and better than many of their contemporaries. RIP Sweet.
I give a f... if they are in the Hall of Fame or not. As long as I and many other people know how good they were.
They were all ROCK GODS all four of them!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
@@dumpling49 Yes true of course but this video really highlighted Brian. The whole performance was incredible. Rock at it's finest.
@@michaelquaglia4156 Yes I know I was there!!!! ❤️
Most underrated rock band ever
The Musikladen videos really showed their ability to improvise and ROCK HARD !!
Yes! I think that set of videos is the best by far of anything on here. They were relaxed and funny, and the camera got all of them individually so much. ❤
Agreed. That Musikladen set is fantastic.
Hard to believe they don't get more respect. They belong in the R&R Hall of Fame.
why do you think so? What style did they create and what did they influence? I feel like their music is good but they just played a style that already existed and they liked it.
@@phoenix21studios Lots of bands nowadays claim their influence on them.They were innovators!! Queen copied their style but they never admitted it but everyone knows.
YES!!!! Definitely!!
@@dumpling49 They both started in the UK at nearly the same time. Marc Bolan was the real influencer of glam rock at the end of the 1960s in the UK along with Bowie.
@@phoenix21studios disagree. They did the multi part harmonies, mixing hard rock and pop before Queen. They were an enormous influence on NWOBHM. And, dare I say, Punk. Yes. I said it......
This is Freaking EPIC!!! KICK-ASS TIGHT AND FREAKING LIVE!!! SWEET, WHAT A SOUND, even if the sound quality is not so good, you can only imagine the AWESOMENESS to be there and hear all this Epic Music, musicianship and vocals LIVE!! KICK-ASS EPIC!! SWEET SINCE 1975!
I have been there, I was 15 then. I was so amazed, no sleep one week before and after...
For me, Sweet are the ultimate rock band. They had the awesome songs, and delivered a powerhouse live gig. Maybe a DVD will be released of live footage from this period. Here's hoping!
I hope so too.
Hope you got the box set .
Brian, Mick and Steve... you guys have left a HUGE legacy to British rock! Andy keep doin’ what you are doing mate! These guys were awesome musicians in their own right! Vale to the guys who have departed - I’m sure you are rockin’ heaven 😎
❤❤❤
💗💗
How influential these guys were. A monster of a band!
Think of all the bands that were influenced by the Sweet.There would be no Kiss or Motley Crue Etc.
@@petebeeley4735 I know. Incredible band Sweet were. Love them guys.
My first proper rock concert as a kid was SWEET and it totally blew my mind! Was nine months before this concert... 16 August, 1975 at Regent Theatre, Dunedin, New Zealand. I will never forget how absolutely awesome it was and this fantastic (albeit flawed) footage is a great document of how talented, powerful and legendary the Connolly / Priest / Scott / Tucker lineup of SWEET were! The BEST! 🌟🌟🌟🌟
Fantastic!!!
Can't get enough 😉
I want to go back to the seventies 💕
I dont care how you call their music but these guys were true and mean metalheads, and this show is your ultimate proof
Well they definitely were not metal! ... they were around over 10 years before Metal !
@@vibes..585 you mean before the term was used. Thats another thing.
@@nikosatsaves3141 No its not ! ... how can they have been a genre of music that wasn't even invented.? . Metal my arse! .. they were a Rock n Roll band.. end of story.. every thing has to be claimed as Heavy fucking metal ..Well its not ! ..so knock off the HM bollocks !
@@nikosatsaves3141 they definitely were metal.
I am so jealous of anyone who got to see them live back in the day.
me too!
They where a force to be reckoned with, superb live. i was fortunate enough to see them a couple of times at Manchester Uni
God me to so much
marcus trelle Really? LOL he couldn’t find anything to change into or was he offended they laughed?
This is pretty close, just judging by the 1st song on the video so far. I was at their 1st L.A. California show ever at the Santa Monica Civic,1976, I was 15. They screened the same intro film. They were completely over the top, visually, vocally and musically. Steve priest was hysterically funny on stage, bantering with the audience, keeping things lively. He cursed like a sailor. and every time he could substitute a word in the lyrics for something obscene he would. A Real rocknroller. Seen a lotta bands, these guys were unique.
Proper rock stars but still seemed Street.
Holy shit!!!!! This is friggin awesome!!! Brian's energy is over the top, and his vocals are edgy, Mick is very underrated, Andy's playing with a vengeance, that harmony is golden..... I want to see this in its entirety
I'm not all too sure if there's more video, but the whole concert is certainly taped as audio!
Here we go, it's underrated time folks😅.
Witam swietny zespol jak dla mnie to nsjlepszy
how exciting and their vocals are amazing.
Just Brilliant first time i have seen this love Brian
This is gold for those of us too young in the 70s to see Sweet. While I wish they were whole songs, this is fabulous! The infamous rotating eye!
THE BEST!!!!!!What a power!
WOW !!! Such a far cry from their early bubble gum days. they continued to progress into hard rock and metal including early speed metal. However, NEVER, NEVER EVER got the recognition they deserved. They were as good as Purple, Zep and Sabbath. From what I have read Sabbaths production team had actually inquired about their sound because they liked it so much and wanted to work with Sweets producer. The song AC/DC was done by Joan Jett and done very well.
Their bubble gum singing was great too
I saw Sweet in Konserthuset in Stockholm 1975 when I was 9! Imagine my surprise when they started with that movie!! 😮 It was a great concert!
Yes..Brian and his gys was "live" total Rock'n'Roll!!!!!!
These fellows sure made an impression and inspired loads of bands.
Glorious rare footage from the golden Sweet era.
Four lead singers in the band, all with the same incredible voice. What bands ever get so lucky??
Brian in clear vocal difficulties...!
Unfortunately, yes - after that drunken brawl in the bar where he suffered a throat injury, things got worse and worse... 💔😢
Absolutely fantastic. Loved listening to this. Thanks for posting. RIP Brian, Mick and Steve. 2020 sucks. Sweet does not
An incredible band! I've loved them ever since I heard the Ballroom Blitz first time as a teenager in the 70s. So glad I found this video. The Sweet live performance videos are rare and every time I find one is a treat. Truly the Sweet musicianship is on par with that of the Queen. Both are the greatest bands in the world!
This was my very first Sweet concert and it was so awesome!! What a day!!!L 🎸❤️🎶🤘
Guys you absolutely rocked my teenage years and still do today...again!!!! Thanks for the fucking great times and epic music!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Have you any idea in which house it was.
@@ebunet Sporthalle Köln jetzt inzwischen Lanxess Arena
Yes it was a nice time, miss it all the time.
I love hearing all their voices on this!!!
Saw them 4 times in the 70's IT was so great ❤️
Bless You @Rene Braunstein, that is something so special now in retrospect!
Bubblegum band my tookis! The Sweet was rockin!
René Braunstein jealous!
Ja Rene darum beneide ich dich sehr ......ich war damals leider noch zu jung !!
@Frank Masuzzo In Denmark...🙏
May 14, 1976 Sweet in Cologne sports hall! I'm still sad that I was not allowed to be there. The performance in Cologne was near my home!✌
Hi Ellen r sweet was and still brilliant arnt they
Ich war da, mein erstes Concert never forgotten….einfach super
@@andreasgernandt2946 Das glaube ich Dir. Ich bedaure es bis heute, dass ich die original Line Up nicht erleben konnte.
Ich auch, sehr sogar!
I was still 3 months away from joining the world
I would have loved to have seen Sweet in their hay day! I bet it was awesome 💕😘❤️
Me too, my dear. I feel robbed AF.
1:22 Ladies and gentlemen! Brian, Steve, Andy and Mick. The Sweet!!!
Amazing!
These guys made magic. NOBODY else like them. This is a gem. Wish there was more live stuff like this available to see. S much talent here it's sick!!!!
Heavy metal hard rock 70s❤🍺🍺
This film quality makes you appreciate today's technology.
well, just maybe one day some of all this footage will be remastered with the best of modern technology. I just wonder were all the missing parts went? There's a lot of skipping of the songs right in the middle. There must be more of this perticular gig, no?
@@phillarsson8253 Well yes probably in the editing process some pieces were lost. It's a shame too because this is such a good show. Then again they were always tight . I think this footage should be preserved for music history.
The quality of this bootleg is very bad, but the group is great and the sound is great. I saw them in 1974. 🦋
Tucker was a BAD ASS DRUMMER !! No doubt about it !!
YESSSSSSSS! #1 hero.
Tucker był niewątpliwie bardzo dobrym perkusistą!!!
SWEET really was a POWERHOUSE of a band !
So great to hear this takes me back to the 1970s . What fun.
Brian was a beast
ill tiger
Even with Brian's voice not at 100% the man wan an absolute beast of a singer and performer.
Hi is flawless in his timing and the feel!
Its add a more nasty attitude , even.more punk vocifering than punk back then .
With their Mick double kick attack and proto thrash riffs , its very ahead of the game
It’s obvious that Brian especially gave his total energy and commitment to The Sweet. If it weren’t for his addiction problems, I’m certain they would have kept going through the 1980s and beyond.
@@caryheuchert It really is a disease. 😔 Poor Brian.
tiger ㅋㅋ ㅋ
Brilliant showmanship. Let alone musicianship. And any other ship you can think of
Yeah, fab comment, love it. Thank you.👍😊
@@shirleygregson3058 Love that band.........xx
@@maddog8621 Me to. 😊👍
@@maddog8621 Me to. 😊👍
42 yrs ago!!! Excellent post and it sounds great.
This is one kick ass show. I would go to see them today.
Great stuff! Saw Sweet live in Stockholm -74 & -75. 😍✌🏻🎸

True
this is just mind blowing if this has been found maybe there us hope for more lost footage from the greatest ever band
I was there then. My first live concert ever. Unforgettable. It was a great time back then.
++Thank God we have this Rare 1976 concert footage shown here for your viewing pleasure folks †*
Amazing these guys..one of my favorite Bands!!! Rip.. Brian Francis Connolly.. Mick Tucker and Stevie Priest..Love them.. Andy Scott..lives on... congradulations..👏👏👏🇧🇷💕
This is so fucking AWESOME! This is literally like pre-metal. The performance is so much more hard core than the recordings.
@ihghost, Yes, those distorted guitar chords and riffs are freaking awesome Metal Genre! I wonder if Sweet influenced this sound at all. The seventies were Pure Rock in sound, but this is right on "Metal" Heavy and in-your-face!
Not pre metal
This is metal
@@snakejones3847 Sweet was covered By Saxon and Even some Thrash metal bands
I wish Sweet would release a live DVD with footage from this era.
There is nothing, I think. That`s a real pity they never filmed a show.
Flieder31 Real shame
I would buy it.
They never performed at huge concerts, festivals, one time in 74 cause of Conellys illness
@Dirk Diggler Ah but Mr Diggler, that's not true is it? You know this. If you had it, so would Sweet. Or any other fan. But no one has. The audio maybe. And film used in All That Glitters. But that's it.
Amazing footage! Thanks for sharing.
My first ever concert……..in Köln…..It was Sweet or nothing…absolutely Loved everything they did…….was devastating when they broke up…..
Fantástic in live
I grow up in the Town of Musikladen (Bremen) and live already here! I am a great Sweetfan and had begin to play drums because i loved Mick Tucker! I saw Mick and Andy on the action tour in the 90´s and have a broken Stick from Mick at home that he threw in the crowd! In the past with Brian and Steve i hav´nt see a Concert ;-( What a shame!
I would KILL for a drumstick of Mick's. You lucky dude! So glad you saw them. I have his identical necklace and I wear it every damn day. Hoping it brings me luck with my drumming progression too. :)
Wow that is awesome! Mick is my drumming king! I'd also kill for one of his sticks. RIP dear Mick. We miss you. 😢
I met them in Arabella Studios Munic,
what a beautiful memory !!
Freakin awesome rock gods!
brian Connolly was my idol as a kid.. wanted to be like him so much.. but the band died befor I made my singing life.....still my idol and favorite band of all time. listening to cockroach was brilliant as so where there own written trax….. very underrated band and musicians.... rip brian and mick and the original sweet
I would have loved to have been at that show. Much thanks for this post.
Any footage of our guys playing live in those days is pure gold, even if the film quality isn't great. Like everyone else who didn't get to see them, I am so bummed that I didn't. Thanks for posting! I loved seeing Cockroach and Yesterday's Rain especially. RIP Mick, Brian, and Steve. Love you always. 🥰😘
FREAKING EPIC!!! Those distorted guitar chords and riffs are freaking awesome "Metal" Genre! I wonder if Sweet influenced this sound at all. The seventies were Pure Rock in sound, but this is right on "Metal" Heavy and in-your-face pushed hard with Brian's vocal and with the 3 part harmoanies on top, man, it's SUGAR on the cake!
OMG...I freaking love this. Ok the recording is questionable but the band is incredibly fantastic. So 70s cool.
This was my initiation rock concert, my very first concert ever. Aged 12. Thinking back, and having kids myself, I am wondering what my mother was thinking 😂. My ears were ringing for a week. Holy moly. Full on experience. I went to one more Sweet live concert in Düsseldorf, in the early 1990s. I still enjoy listening to the sensational tunes, riffs, harmonies and drum fills. Thank you for uploading. ❤❤❤
Este vídeo es una joya, saludos.
Fantásticos Sweet !!!!!
very cool....ahead of time xx
So am jealous of any one who saw sweet in 70s I would love to have see sweet in concert in 70s
Same. I feel quite bitter about it.
Cockroach, performed here, is way better than on 76's LP.
Ein Stück Musikgeschichte!!!!!!!!
What a relly great band, very brillant!!!Love all of them.
The sweet i just love them
This is great
Fucking legends...love them!!
Unseen and Perfect... Love SWEET...
Good sound, musicians and voices. The opposite of their reputation, initialized through some of agnostic minded music journalists during the whole time of their successful 70th.
Love this group! They really can!
just had knee replacement this is better then any mofeen were at our best here rock on
Dirty buggers! Love them so much!
I would like to see the gig at the end of all that glitters in it's entirety ! I did get to see them live and they were amazing live
WOW
What voices!
These guys are all the bomb!
What a great job salvaging the sound on this!!!! WOW!!!! LOVE THIS!!!!
Oh God, I want to see this whole show. We need a time machine. I love that Steve got to do Restless. I've seen just one other clip of it, and it was so dark it was terrible.
Steve Preist RIP.😞
Great upload....thanks
ich war bei diesem Konzert in der Kölner Sporthalle, mit meinem Kumpel Rüdiger. Stehplatz Innenraum-Ticket kostete damals 13 DM🎸🎸
А близко или далеко от сцены были на концерте,то есть хорошо ли вы видели группу, расскажите,очень любопытно?
@@user-mw7cv3um5uStehplatz in der Mitte des Innenraums einer Halle für 5000 Fans, alles gut zu sehen. Am Ende hatte Brian eine Riesenflasche Champagner in der Hand
Я очень рада за вас, что вы были на этом концерте и видели все вживую! Наверное, Брайан классно выглядел и вам все понравилось. О, я бы тоже туда хотела!
Какие счастливчики видели ребят на живом концерте!!!
Great upload!
Cockroach and Yesterday's Rain live!!!!! YES!!!!! It's not only a horrible shame they never filmed a complete (or near complete) concert but they also never had one multi-tracked either except the Rainbow in 73. Half was released on Strung Up and is superb. Apparently the multi-tracks for the other half of the show were lost. That is sad. Soundboard recordings will have to do....
Slip from my toung, bro.🙂
GREAT
This is both fantastic and sad at the same time. They were seriously on top of their game by this point in their career, but it's so painfully obvious that Brian is struggling to find the singer he was just a few years before. Makes it hard to watch, knowing how it all ended.
Brian's singing is very poor .... And we all know why. Same story was with George Byron of Uriah Heep.... From one of the best rock vocalist of all times he had literally turned into a weirdo.... A rather miserable replica of himself.... But the show was great. I wish there was a DVD with this gig - i'd watch it with pleasure. Thanks for the upload - i am very happy to happen upon this gem. The track list is amazing..... Live version of "Cockroach" is a wow
and a very good rendition of Yesterday's Rain, too
@Harold de Mure , i think i should agree with your rectification. I just described my opinion of one of David Byron's shows with UH in 1975 or 1976, and obviously misused the word. Don't be too harsh on me anyway : i am only a learner of English. Thanks, best regards and hello from Ukraine! P.S. Am an alcoholic singer myself. This is why it hurts me so to see much greater singers and performers than i turn to waste ;-)
@Harold de Mure , thank you ever ever so much. What a great response - i didn't even expect :) I used to be in love with a Finnish girl Veera. I even wrote her a song.... I think the Finns are fantastic : what great progress they have made since the early 20th century!! Here's my email : i.popatenko@gmail.com . Shoot me a message and let's be in touch. God bless Suomen Tasavalta! ;-)
Brians singing was Great here it was the eighties his voice got worse
This is great but Steve I wish you and Andy could patch things for the 50th ,,It would be nice to see you together again ......:-D
It seems like the way they are looking, this show is sweet burning out j
someone needs to spend some money on this and have it restored professionally. in its current state, its poor quality visuals and very unstable on the lower half of the screen. restore it and repost it, you know its worth it.
Yes they could restore it. Led zeppelin live at knebworth 79 was as bad as this quality and now its fantastic quality.
So would I like to have seen sweet in concert in 70s
Супер!!!❤❤❤
I seen them in 1973 at Glasgow Apollo they were alright I saw T.rex 3 months later and there was no comparison But we have lost lots of both these bands key players Sad
Couse me t.rex was good too as wel, as sweet what u on bout no Compton between sweet and t,rex
