the band's 

best album.

 Andy Scott,

 Sweet's guitarist,

Desolation Boulevard: 

"Such diversity only proves

 that the band 

was never going

 to be just formulaic,

 giving this album a 

definitive place

 in Sweet history".

Cover Artwork

The album artwork 

was done by 

art design group

 Hipgnosis, 

famous for working 

with the likes of

 Pink Floyd, 

Genesis,

 The Alan Parsons Project,

 and

 Led Zeppelin. 

The background photo 

was shot near

 the entrance of a

 rock music club 

called 

Filthy McNasty's,

 located at 

8852 Sunset Boulevard

 in West 

Hollywood, California. 

Today,

died of a 

drug overdose 

on Halloween

 morning in 1993.

The US front cover 

was slightly altered

 to add extra 

road signs

 and an 

altering of the 

album's title 

and
