The production is handled admirably by Scott, Connolly, Tucker and Priest and every song is a band composition. <span style="font-weight: bold;">GIVE US A WINK</span><!--bold--> was recorded for the most part at Musicland Studios in Munich with engineer Mack (who was later to work extensively with Queen.) Part of the recording process was watched by Zeppelin bassist John Paul Jones who was particularly interested in the sound Mick Tucker had achieved in recording his drumming. (Coincidently the next Zeppelin album, PRESENCE was recorded in the same studio.) The recording was completed back in London at Ian Gillan`s Kingsway Recorders. There were two singles lifted from <span style="font-weight: bold;">GIVE US A WINK</span><!--bold-->, the first being <span style="font-weight: bold;">ACTION</span><!--bold-->, a fast and furious rocker which unfortunately only made number 16 in the charts but remains a classic to this day. It was covered by Def Leppard in the Nineties and provided the Sheffield lads with a hit! The other single <span style="font-weight: bold;">LIES IN YOUR EYES </span><!--bold-->fared even worse and proved to be the last hit Sweet would have for a couple of years. It was like the Stones and The Who rolled into one but heavier! The songs on this album were probably the hardest rockers Sweet ever recorded, punctuated by longer instrumental passages, which gave the band the opportunity to prove themselves the fine musicians they had always claimed to be and undoubtedly were. <span style="font-weight: bold;">YESTERDAY`S RAIN </span><!--bold-->is a superb track with phased guitar and very clever lyrics. <span style="font-weight: bold;">COCKROACH</span><!--bold--> is a fine example of the thunderous new drum sound mentioned previously whilst <span style="font-weight: bold;">KEEP IT IN </span><!--bold-->sees the band tying themselves in musical knots on the instrumental mid segment. <span style="font-weight: bold;">WHITE MICE </span><!--bold-->is a must for anyone who loves harmony guitarwork. The album closes with an experimental, lengthy, semi-funky plodder called <span style="font-weight: bold;">HEALER</span><!--bold-->. Great stuff! Sweet were reviled at the time this album was originally released for ripping off all the great bands of the Seventies but in doing so they came up with something unique! <span style="font-weight: bold;">GIVE US A WINK</span><!--bold--> is an essential album for any classic rock collection.
