It’s Slade - 1999 - 6/10

Roaring documentary of the premier Glam rockers of the 70’s.
All band members appear (manager Chas Chandler, sadly RIP), along with guest heads Ozzy Osbourne, Suzi Quatro, Noel Gallagher.
Most of the story follows the rise of the group and one powerhouse hit after another.
Like Mr. Plant (another key singer from the 70’s), Noddy has been the one resisting reunions.
Glory days for Brit fans. For Yanks, maybe not so much, as Slade never caught on in the States.
Echo of the mindless, hedonistic decade fading into the graveyard.
