As important as the fictional story of The Takeaways was to the success of Sweet And Sour, an equally crucial factor was the show's soundtrack. Johanna Pigott and Graham "Buzz" Bidstrup (formerly of The Angels and The Party Boys) talk us through the process of reaching out to the cream of Australia's songwriters for material to include in the show. Both Johanna and Buzz also contributed songs themselves, and the latter tells us about joining forces with three other writers who he'd go on to form GANGgajang with. We also hear from Sharon O'Neill about how the ups and downs of her career up until that point influenced the lyrics of title track "Sweet And Sour", while Deborah Conway recounts how she was recruited to provide the singing voice of The Takeaways' lead singer, Carol, and why she requested that her involvement stay as anonymous as possible. Finally, series producer (and future producer of The Piano, Lantana and many more movies) Jan Chapman reflects on her role bringing the series to air and why she considers it a career highlight.
