SWEET - I'm A Boy - Live 1973

[powerkor]

very Who-like

[outregous1]

challenging and provocative this is why I love Sweet so mutch! O I would have been there but at the time I was only ten. I hope they will be giging soon in the neighbarhood of Belgium!

Crikey - halfway through the book "Blockbuster" and totally enthralled by it. Then I happen across this and can't believe such a rarity (which is referred to in the book) is actually here!!! Thanks for posting this, it's really appreciated. Always been a massive Sweet fan, them and punk band Stiff little Fingers are my two favourite bands. Thanks again. Andy.

I WANT TO GO BACK TO THE SEVENTIES AND RELIVE SWEET AND GLAM ROCK PLEASED TO SAY I WAS A TEENAGER WHEN THEY ROCKED BEEN NOTHING LIKE THEM SINCE THIS IS GREAT THANKS.

[LiteracyLabyrinth2]

Very rare - Oh Yeah!

[kittiesgomow33]

im not complaining, but at the begining why did they change the lyrics "one little girl," "another little girl," and "another girl" to little whore, slut and slag?

[rocker70sman]

hahaha I love brians introduction, "just be happy" what a great band! and a great cover!! I want to see this digital remastered and on a cd so we can buy this great stuff!!!

[Jadranko23]

Too much screaming from Andy. Oh boy, Brian's rock voice lost here. No wonder this was just a joke song for the concerts to please girls :D

[Jadranko23]

@lissiwill Did I say that Brian's voice wasn't good? NO, I said his vocal was behind all this screaming. I don't hear any stress here. Except mine, while was listening this :D

[05francis10]

Great!!!!! Brian was so very good! Love it. For me, The Sweet are the best forever!!

Very good cover version!! Thanks for sharing!! R.I.P. Brian + R.I.P. Mick

[kittiesgomow33]

GREAT POST. I'm a lifelong sweet fan and I have never heard this. We need more people like you to keep posting live sweet stuff on here The world needs to know what a great live group they were.How about a Mick Tucker classic drum solo.?. Keep up the good work. This is priceless!.

Reminds me of The Who

[Ulai777]

Of course it does, duh! The Who wrote it, I must be retarded!

This is a fantastic version! Those cats really could sing back then! Jeez! read the new Brian Connoly biography. Awesome story! I'll recommend it! Cheers!

[dubarri63]

Please woul'd you tell me where I can buy this biography? I live in France and may be I coul'd buy by Internet. Thanks very much

[Sapperticker]

[dubarri63]

just found your answer on my mailbox, don't know how it got there but thanks anyway. I ordered the book from the author and I must say I really loved it .

[Sapperticker]

That was good to hear! I loved it too. Very touching and tragic fairy tale. Very balanced and respectable writing by the author.
