A lot of these songs are not at all what I would consider pop, even a couple of the ones I posted. I could be wrong about what pop music is, I guess the definition could be broader than I think of it as. I know it only means popular music, to me that doesn't include all genres, but I guess in reality maybe it does.
The beginning of glam?I don't know, dude, is that disco?

Probably right in the middle. It was their big hit from the album before Desolation Boulevard was released. I first saw it on Rockpalast when I was ten years old, and became a big Sweet fan. Rockpalast was also my introduction to Uriah Heep and many other bands.The beginning of glam?

Y'know, I feel fairly old at times. But given all these songs, I am way too young to have heard them as a teenager. Many are Not in my wheelhouse
