This was on the jukebox at the old pool hall where me and my freinds used to sneak in when we were 9 or 10. To this day that wind up at the beginning says jukebox. With a glass dome.
Man, what great music was generated from1967 to 1978 ! Psychedelic Hard Rock (1967 to 1969), followed groups like Sweet, Black Sabbath, Led Zepelend, Deep Purple, and too many to remember! My olny regreets in life was born in the end of the 1950's instead of the early 1950's! The days of classic muscile cars, gas was $ .299 for perumin gas, hamburgers(meat that filled the bun, not crap from overseas) five for a dollars! Great FM hard rock/Heavy metal! those were the days!
The Fuck'n 70s were good times, way better than now. We might have Computers and all that, but this country is fucked-up, a lot more fucked-up than even the 80s. I didn't live through the whole 70s but it wasn't that bad besides Vietnam, which I'll never know nothing about and wouldn't want too.
These guys wore crazy outfits...kinda like Lady Gaga of today, only these guys didn't have to use it to hide whatever musical shortcomings they might have had.

were the glam bands sweet, slade, t.rex, gary glitter, suzi quatro, mud pals & hang out? would have loved to have been at the bbc bar after a recording of top of the pops...
I love the music and the bellbottoms but I am so glad men's hairstyles are different, and I am glad those jumpsuits for men have gone out of style too... those were terrible! LOL Otherwise I wish I had been old enough to enjoy the 70s when they were happening, I was born in the 70s so I missed out some.
One of the best songs of the 70's. Used to hear this in the pool hall down the street around 1975, while I was trying to be the pinball wizard. Everytime I hear this I get an urge to play pinball.
Sweet was an unusual band. They had some major hits, (Fox on the Run, Little Willy, Love is Like Oxygen, etc.), but they couldn't seem to maintain the level of popularity that each hit brought them. They were obviously very talented, and all their hits were catchy tunes, but they didn't seem to have any staying power. I could be wrong, but that's how it looked to me.
@ftsjr Not so much that I disagree, but do a simple Wiki on the bands beginings and the progressive changes they went through. Not much wonder that they were highly influenced by "The Who". Also pay close attention to the inspiration that lead them to write their hit "Ballroom Blitz". They were a band that was a good 10 years ahead of their time, before anyone else caught up with them. It's a sad commentary that the true "Trail Blazers" are far too often forgotten or misunderstood..
great to hear this again it brings back happy memories of the 70,s when i was discovering life enjoying freedom and good times, thanks for the memories
Man! iwish i could have lived in the 70s! those times were awesome! the music, the glam, even the jeans were cool! im 14 and am not afraid to say it... I LOVE 60s-80s music. and a lot of the ninties. THIS SONG RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Nekoman95 I was about your age when this song came out. It was a Hot Summer, they even had a Fox Hunt at the O.C. Raceway, California. The used this song as there theme. It was a night to remember. Long live the 70's.
@Nekoman95 You're partially right that the 70's started out bad- seeing 60,000 men killed in viet nam and 250,000 men injured sucked. However, in 1978 the most dangerous thing that threatened the american way of life was Disco. So you're partially right- something happened in the early 90's and the music just went "south"
Not surprising; in fact, the first time I heard this song I thought: Wow! Ace Frehley has just pulled off one more hit for Kiss! The song's fantastic, anyway, and so were the Sweet-ers.
EPIC! Amazing! Breathtaking! Sweet, Kiss, Queen, and Abba were (and still are) my 70s favorites! God! Where did all that glamour, magic and talent go? I miss those unforgettable days...
@gabstanace And Mud and Smokie and Wizard...those were the days! Yeah I remember ABBA. My family was crazy about them. probably the most beloved band over here in the 70's together with MUD.
