Co-Co - What a song!! Simple and very catchy.

After just once - you'll be able to sing along to the chorus . . another Chinn & Chapman masterpiece!!

Session muscians were used for the backing track to both Co-Co and Funny Funny - so it says on the info, but I'm sure I recognise Andy's back strumming technique, and the bass playing is more like Steve's usual high quality, clean fretting . . . any one else agree? I'd say they definitely didn't play on Funny Funny though . . . very different styles.

It's well known that Sweet hated this and Funny Funny and have only just begun playing them again at concerts (well, Andy and Steve have with their own versions of The Sweet - RIP Mick and Brian)

And Mick was known to call this song -

"Ho chi ka ka F***ing ho!!!" (quoted from Steve's book - worth reading BTW!!).

But once they escaped the apron strings of Chinn and Chapman (after re-recording Fox for RCA as a single, without Chinn & Chapman's knowledge) . . . well! - the rest is pure HISTORY.

They could have been a GREAT stadium band!

Brian, Steve, Mick, Andy - THANKS for some really memorable tracks.

'Co-Co': A side single 1971 (RCA)

'Done me wrong or right': B side

DEDICATED TO "NAT" - THE NEWEST CONVERT TO THE PHENOMENON THAT IS . . . SWEET!

what a popular band in the 70ties ! They were great ! And from the first pop period "Funny funny", "Coco", they went heavy metal glam and they still had a lot of succes. They were great. At the same time, there was Slade, they were great too ! And at the same time still, there was Black Sabbath and they are still great ! OK, Ozzy doesn't sing as well as when he was young, but we don't care !!!! We love him !
