There's a new CD with Suzi and a guy from Sweet and a guy from Slade. Have not heard.

The best overall glam-rock compilation I own, and has proven to be the PWN3r of mid 70s glam is this really cheaply done 2-CD released on Repertroire called Dynamite! - The Best Of Glam Rock. The cover is just fucking godawful. It makes worse use of rainbows than the worst K-Tel compilation from 1976, or the worst Atari 2600 cartridge. And there's a gloved hand holding a fake colored glittered paper mache stack-o-dynamite on it, using tin foil as the sparkles. Yes, we're talking almost-as-bad-as-Cleopatra levels here.
But it fucking rocks.

It's got the best Quatro, Angel, Kongos, Cozy Powell, Sweet, Heavy Metal Kids, Chris Spedding, Wizard, and Gary Glitter tracks one can hope for on a single release.

one year passes...
ten months pass...

That "Dynamite" comp is quite the thing, all the tracks I know are great which means the handful I don't must be great too!

Also, thirteen years on and the supplied amazon link still works!

Do like a bit of glam. Remember the more chartworthy stuff from the time, despite being a small child at the time. THink I watched TOTP semi religiously and got to see Disco 45 regularly.
JUst been rediscovering the stuff over the last few years . PIcked up bits of Slade, Sweet,Alice Cooper and a few of those Junk Shop Glam compis including All The Young Droogs.

Don't really like the fashion overmuch, prefer the earlier mod/psych/turn of the 70s stuff. & influences thereon.
