Lead singer Ted Yeadon left to join Love Affair, however, before the album's release, the band folded.

Scott's first single release in 1975 was a reworked version of the Desolation Boulevard track "Lady Starlight" backed by "Where D'Ya Go?".

Scott made a promotional video for the track and also appeared on Mike Mansfield's British TV Show "Supersonic".

It was a cover of the R. Dean Taylor Motown hit and was produced by him and Louis Austin, who had worked with Sweet as their engineer on past ventures.

The B-side "Krugerrands", co-written with Chris Bradford, [6] [7] was subsequently released as the follow-up single (as Andy Scott this time), but like its predecessor, failed to chart, except in Australia where it peaked at number 89[8] and South Africa where it was a top 10 hit.

He produced a couple of demos for Weapon, which was then fronted by Danny Hynes who went on to form Paddy Goes to Holyhead[10] and Scott played with them now and again.

[11] In 1985 Scott and Tucker re-formed Sweet with new members Paul Day (ex-Iron Maiden) on lead vocals, Phil Lanzon (ex-Grand Prix now with Uriah Heep) on keyboards, and Mal McNulty (ex-Weapon) on bass.

[12] Scott was a main organiser of the first charity Rock Against Cancer concert in All Cannings, Wiltshire, in May 2012, which was headlined by Brian May, The Boomtown Rats, and Midge Ure.
