On this day, 17 Dec 1972, Glam Rock/Pop group The Sweet, played the Top Rank, Cardiff on their Funny How Sweet Coco Can Be tour.
Formerly known as the Sweetshop, the band had just released The Sweet's Biggest Hits a greatest hits album of their earlier pop hits.
During 1971 and 1972, their musical style followed a marked progression from the Archies-like bubblegum style of "Funny Funny" to a Who-influenced hard rock style supplemented by a striking use of high-pitched backing vocals.
