Sweet ) Fox on the Run - Ballroom Blitz ) 1973 - 1975
You are listening to the genuine Hi-Fi stereo sound transferred from the actual vinyl record in the best possible quality.
"A definitive hard-rock bubblegum record" & "one of the last glitter classics," "Fox on the Run" is a 1975 song by the British glam rock band Sweet, first recorded in 1974. It was the first Sweet single written by the band, rather than producers Nicky Chinn & Mike Chapman, and was their 14th single overall.
This is more pop-oriented and more familiar version of the song recorded and produced in 1975 and was included on the Capitol Records issue of Desolation Boulevard.
The song's inclusion in the trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 led to the song reaching number one on the iTunes Rock Chart in late 2016.
"Fox" being slang for an attractive woman, the lyrics are apparently about one of the band's groupies.
"The Ballroom Blitz" (often called "Ballroom Blitz") is a song written by Nicky Chinn & Mike Chapman. It was inspired by an incident on 27 January 1973 when the band were performing at the Grand Hall in Kilmarnock, Scotland, and were driven offstage by a bottling (when angry fans throw things onto the stage). Regardless of the damage and danger that the band took on during the bottling, it resulted in an all-time classic glam rock song.
The song was recorded on 11-12 June 1973 at Audio International Studio, 18 Rodmarton Street, London, and released as a single in September 1973.
The song appeared on the US and Canadian versions of Desolation Boulevard but never appeared on a Sweet album in the UK, other than hits compilations.
