dxmachinaRaining a lot outside.
Apart from some individual songs, I wasn't much into glam back in the day. Or even much today, but I do like this one, "Ballroom Blitz" by the Sweet. There's some nifty drumming, and it's got the over the top vocal bridge by the bass player. I mostly remember the Sweet for one of the worst songs ever inflicted on me back in my college days, "Little Willie."

Of course for real excess, there were the prog rock bands that also dipped into glam for the outfits. My ex was a huge fan of a lot of them, some of which spilled over to me.
