Day one of my five day music challenge.Choose 5 songs that are important and have a story.I nominate Christian Thatcher Andrew Keightley and Steve Jackson to choose 5 songs I have been listening to this track for 40 years and i never grow tired of it.Being a certain age in 1974 i was drawn to the glam bands via top of the pops,Sweet were my favourite.Blockbuster,Hellraiser,Ballroom blitz,Teenage rampage,fox on the run and Action were great songs.They were my introduction to rock music and then discovered the classic rock album bands of the time.Mick Tucker the Sweet drummer was a major influence on me and many hours were spent drumming along to those singles.When i got the album Sweet fanny adams the opening track Set me free just amazed me.This was Sweet away from the glam tracks that were written for them.They were all fantastic musicians and vocalists and the production still sounds modern and i hear so many bands that followed them.But it is Mick tuckers drumming that still does it for me.A sady underated drummer and band
