Sweet Sensation (1974) Sad Sweet Dreamer

A Philly sounding hit with an overabundance of 'sweet' balanced out by gentle jazz verses with nice saccharine strings being plucked along with lullaby styled choral vocals from this Manchester based soul group; while the lead singer's definitely channelling a young Michael Jackson. The slight repetitive and on the nose quality of the hit form this group which found fame first on a talent show (note to myself nothings changed.) meant they tried out to be Britain's' representative in the 1977 Eurovision but proved to have too much talent for the spot finishing 8th. Freakin sweet!
