Top Gear Playlist 10th Jan 1970

[steve]

Many thanks indeed to Mick for the playlist. Have put it up on the wiki.

On a kind of related note, there didn't seem on the wiki to be a 1970 Top Gear show that I had lurking around on my computer, so have stuck up a page with links, etc. It's 12-12-70, with sessions from Hawkwind among others:
http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/12_December_1970

No idea where I got this from in the first place, but many thanks to those responsible for recording and sharing it originally. 

Cheers,

Steve

This was the last show he bothered with until the coming of The Ramones, because in his humble opinion Peel "Really pushed in all the stops for this one" (He gives 'one measly star' as his verdict)
