Reviews4 stars out of 5 -- "'Ballroom Blitz' is the classic, but the Sweet milked the same fast-loud-and-filthy formula for gems like 'Teenage Rampage'...and 'Wig-Wam Bam'...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "This collection traces the group's evolution from Latin-esque froth to metallic ferocity, definitively proving that Sweet were the glitter gang Def Leppard always wanted to be.", "Their layered vocals, clever guitarmonies, and feathered hairstyles influenced Queen and Def Leppard, among many others."

Action: The Sweet Anthology. Great double CD pack.
Recently re-discovered the Sweet. What a great band they were. Very sad about Brian Connolly and Mick Tucker.
