"What a Bunch of Sweeties" is the second studio album by The Pink Fairies, released in 1972. This album showcases the band's freewheeling, experimental style that blends heavy rock with psychedelic and space rock influences. The Pink Fairies were known for their anti-establishment ethos and anarchic performances, often performing for free at outdoor festivals or as part of countercultural events in London.

Compared to their debut album, Never Never Land, "What a Bunch of Sweeties" has a looser, more jam-oriented sound, with long instrumental sections and a raw energy that was characteristic of the band's live performances. The album cover, which features a colorful collage of imagery, also reflects the playful and rebellious spirit of the band.

The album, while not commercially successful, further solidified The Pink Fairies' status as underground icons of the 1970s. Their approach to music, rejecting commercial norms, and focusing on raw, energetic performances made them influential in the emerging punk rock scene that would take hold later in the decade.
