I've always been a fan of Sweet, and it's a shame that they're only really known as a "one-hit wonder". 'The Man With the Golden Arm' from Desolation Boulevard is so good. I always love it when swing and big band combines with rock and metal.
I think their metal creds are usually forgotten about too, 'Set Me Free' and 'Sweet F.A.' are pure 70's metal.
