The 2013 Martin Popoff short ebook about the making of the Sweet album, Give Us A Wink.
Y'know, this is exactly the type of record that makes writing these things worthwhile. Any old school metal watcher worth his salt knows that Give Us A Wink is one of the gleaming, under-rated classics of front-edge metal as it existed in the mid-'70s. Take a read of the droll words of wisdom generated by Andy Scott and Steve Priest and learn the secrets of its monster sound, its genius touches of synthesizer and it's solo cello army of one. Action, Cockroach, White Mice, Yesterday's Rain... this record's stuffed with snarling metal with a mean, mean disposition and you should know all about it.
