Sweet As Can Be by Jan Frewer

If anyone has a detailed account of The Sweet's career in the seventies, look no further than Jan Frewer. Jan had been the bassist and vocalist for sixties band Wainwright's Gentleman, who for a while included lead vocalist Ian Gillan. Gillan was replaced by Brian Connolly, who along with the band's drummer Mick Tucker went on to form The Sweet. As Jan explains, I have written a daily diary since I was given my first one on Christmas Day 1959. It is now 2022 and I have never missed doing my bedtime diary in all that time - not a single day. Jan kept in contact with his former bandmates and before too long he found himself with a new career as The Sweet's sound engineer. Compiled from Jan's diaries this book is a fly on the wall record of The Sweet during those heady days on the 1970s. A time when The Sweet was never far from everyone's consciousness with regular TV appearances and their hit records constantly on the radio. This unique book is a delight for Sweet fans around the world with treasured information direct from the source - from a man who was there along the journey with Brian, Mick, Steve and Andy as The Sweet became seventies' superstars.
