Sweet - Isolation Boulevard - 2021
"Still Got the Rock" is a deep cut. Dabbling in funk-tinged metal, it was the final track on a 2015 compilation CD collection and it's a Scott/Pete Lincoln song. So, it's very not Sweet. That one is 40 tracks and it's one too many.
Why do this? Why re-record songs that you have already re-recorded in some fashion and do it in isolation during a pandemic and then release it to fans? Oh...right. Pete Lincoln is out as vocalist and Paul Manzi is in.
This is a Sweet cover band, sanctioned only that the lead guitarist was in the original band and has the rights to the name. I like the songs. But this is only for completists.
How did Blockbuster not use that song for a commercial?? I have to got a lot of props for the New York Groove in to Empire State of Mind mashup.
Oh, and my version of Hell Raiser is light years better than this one.
