The year was 1985. The reformation of Sweet was under way. I had been hanging out with Mick Tucker and weād talked about putting together a ānewā Rock line-up of Sweet after the hiatus of the original band. I had recruited Phil Lanzon on keyboards and Mal McNulty on bass, now we needed the Voice! Paul Mario Day walked in and we looked no further. Paul was the original singer with Iron Maiden and had a stint with the band More before he joined Sweet. Our first dates were in Australia, total sell-outs which boded well for the future. Europe followed suit and 3 sold out nights at the original Marquee Club in London produced a live album, video and DVD. āLive at the Marqueeā did well in various charts around the world and Paulās vocal performance has stood the test of time. There were also tracks recorded at Pacific Studios in London which feature Paulās incredible vocals. These recordings were meant to be the start of a new phase for Sweet but due to a management dispute only 4 tracks were released. Sadly Paul is no longer with us but the legacy is right here for everyone to appreciate.
