Sweet hit the peak of their powers on Desolation Boulevard, a wonderfully lightweight collection of fizzy melodies and big, dumb hooks. Essentially, the album consists of three dynamic singles buoyed by a bunch of filler, but those singles – "Ballroom Blitz," "The 6-Teens," and "Fox on the Run" – are addictive slices of bubblegum glam rock…

Desolation Boulevard is the third studio album by the English glam rock band Sweet originally released in the United Kingdom in November 1974. Desolation Boulevard is considered by many to be the band's best album. Andy Scott, Sweet's guitarist, said of Desolation Boulevard: "Such diversity only proves that the band was never going to be just formulaic, giving this album a definitive place in Sweet history".

Sweet hit the peak of their powers on Desolation Boulevard, a wonderfully lightweight collection of fizzy melodies and big, dumb hooks. Essentially, the album consists of three dynamic singles buoyed by a bunch of filler, but those singles – "Ballroom Blitz," "The 6-Teens," and "Fox on the Run" – are addictive slices of bubblegum glam rock. And the filler is ridiculously silly and enjoyable, with "Sweet F.A.," "I Wanna Be Committed," and "No You Don't" sounding like a kind of bizarre prototype for the Ramones' punky bubblegum (only without the irony, of course).

Anyone who has been a long-time fan of Sweet knows that they basically had 3 different careers as a band: first as a teeny-bop bubblegum band in the very early 70's who used session musicians, second as a heavyweight Glam/Hard Power-pop hit machine from '73 to '75, and third as an above-average Classic/Hard Rock/Metal band with pop leanings. This album captures the Sweet in all their mid-period hard-Glam glory and is without a doubt their most consistent album and one of the top 3 best albums to ever surface from the original Glamrock scene in early 70's Britain, even if (in this American release) it is a compilation of highlights from the original British release and the previous album (Sweet Fanny Adams).

If you were to buy only one Sweet CD, this should be the one. This improves upon the UK edition of the album by adding great stuff from their "Sweet F.A." album and getting rid of some fluff (you didn't really need their version of "My Generation," did you?) While you don't get "Love is Like Oxygen," you get a bunch of cool songs written by the band and by Chinn/Chapman. A truly classic rock CD, influenced many star rock bands of 70-90.

The Sweet is a British Rock Band with a pedigree of hits! "Fox on The Run," "Ballroom Blitz," "Action," "Love is Like Oxygen" and many more. The 1975 album "Desolation Boulevard" has truly stood the test of time keeping the band as relevant today as it was back then. Much to the excitement of fans worldwide, Sweet has released a new album "Isolation Boulevard" which is a reworking of many of the original tracks including the latest single "Set Me Free," written by original guitarist and producer Andy Scott. He has led the band since 1985 maintaining the high standards set more than 50 years ago when The Sweet first burst onto the music scene. "Isolation Boulevard" was recorded between lockdowns in September/October 2020. The new album harks back to The Sweet's golden era and the 1975 album "Desolation Boulevard." The latest single and video "Set Me Free" is taken from "Isolation Boulevard" and though it is one of the bands most covered songs, this is the first time The Sweet has released it as a single.
