Rivel Records presents Sweden’s tribute to the legendary rock
band The Sweet. The CD is pure energized rock n’ roll, filled
with melodic, hook filled, guitar driven tracks and vocal harmonies
that most bands never come close to achieving! If these bands represent
The Sweet at even a fraction of what is recorded on this CD then
The Sweet must be one of the best bands that I never really listened
to.
Onboard
for the tribute CD are Rivel Records very own Christian Rivel, Jeff
Scott Soto, former Kiss guitarists Bruce Kullick, Tommy Denander
and members & ex. members of Thunder, Hughes/Turner Project,
Europe, Yngwie Malmsteen Band, At Vance, Candlemass, Talisman Lion’s
Share and Narnia.
The
opening track “Love is Like Oxygen” features the stunning
vocal duet between Christian Rivel and Jeff Scott Soto while Christian’s
band Audiovision cranks out the music. Tommy Denander’s version
of “Action” rocks! Brighteye Brison rendition of “Mother
Earth” is smoking. Overall the CD maintains a brilliant continuity
between the various bands involved. All singers involved sound excellent
as well as the top notch performances of each band.
