2018 saw the 50th anniversary of legendary British glam rockers The Sweet and to celebrate the occassion Rufus Publications have created this fabulous book incorporating photographer Dick Barnatt’s visual record of the band.
Dick Barnatt has been the bands official photographer since 1976 and continues to work with them up to this day. Using his amazing collection he has curated this stunning, large format, luxury, 148 page coffee table book, released in two collectors versions and shipping at the end of March 2019. Each edition is 300mm square.
The Signed Leather and Metal Edition: Bound in recycled black leather, gold foil embossed and supplied in a hand made metal slipcase with die cut Sweet logo. Supplied with a folder containing 4 limited edition prints, poster and special T-shirt unique to this project. Personally signed by Andy Scott and Dick Barnatt. Individually numbered from 1 to 150. Printed, bound and created entirely in the United Kingdom.
About the Photographer: Dick Barnatt has now been in the photographic business for over five decades in which time he has built up a wealth of experience, from working in Film and Chemistry to creating images in Digital Format. With his knowledge and technique he has been in demand by everyone from Politicians to Pop Stars where he has produced imagery for every form of media from PR Publicity to Posters, Books, Record Sleeves and Art Galleries. His photographs have been used by bands like AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones to name just a few. He has spent his later photographic career travelling the world building a vast library of images. He now spends his time working on exhibitions and book projects.
About Andy Scott: Born 30th June 1949 in Wrexham, North Wales. Andy first picked up the guitar at 13 moving on to play bass ("because someone had to") with a plethora of local bands (The Fore-Winds, Missing Links and The Strangers) before settling in the Silverstone Set. In 1966 the group won Hughie Green's Opportunity Knocks, six weeks running, eventually to be beaten by Freddie Starr. This led to the Silverstone Set playing support to Jimi Hendrix on his first shows in the UK in 1967. In 1978 "Love Is Like Oxygen", written by Andy Scott and Trevor Griffin, won an Ivor Novello nomination in three categories and also took the ASCAP Award that year.
