Sweet Substitute

Sweet Substitute are included in this spotliight review beacuse they appeared as a supporting act with Klaus Wunderlich in his first tour of the UK in April 1978, when they performed in the first half of his eight concerts at major theatres arranged by Kennedy Street Enterprises.

Sweet Substitute are an English all girl trio specializing in jazz and swing harmony recordings, including A cappella. They originated from Bristol, England.

The trio were founded in 1975 when English folk musician Andy Leggett (see Pigsty Hill Light Orchestra) met singer Teri Penfold (his future wife) at a party and suggested that she should contact Angie Masterton and Eiri Thrasher to form a singing trio.

Eiri left the group and was replaced by Sammi Brown (real name Chris Price). Their first album, “Something Special”, became BBC Radio2’s album of the week when released in 1977. Shortly after they appeared on a UK radio show with Geoff Love and his Orchestra. They appeared on BBC TV's long running TV show, The Good Old Days.
