Hey Mike, Ive been reading Sammy Hagars book Red, and he mentioned meeting Sweet at a show he was perfoming at years ago, and I wondered if GT had any of their songs in the library, I was very excited when I found Ballroom Blitz and Fox on the Run that you teach, so now I have two more songs to learn, Im an old school rocker and these songs look like they will be a blast to play, Keith
The Sweet band

....and when you're feeling up to it, you should try 'Set Me Free'. My favorite Sweet Song.

Nice! The Sweet are highly underrated - check out the album "Desolation Boulevard" - the 3 songs mentioned here are on that album. IMO every song on there is awesome!!
Cheers!

You should have seen my copy of Desolation Blvd. The jacket was decimated and the vinyl was so played it had more pops than a Jiffy Pop on the stove.

Ive lost track but I bet I have played Ballroom Blitz over 100 times now, I'm using a Strat, VOX amp and alternating between a Tube Screamer and Sandstorm pedals to get the sound as close as possible, I cant seem to get enough of this fun song.......
