Great news and many thanks to Ken for all his hard work! Can't wait to see the 1973 listings - would be very nice to have for Christmas. 

Hopefully, the 1975 ones will help tie things down on dating the Decktician's Reels listings in the end too. 

Cheers,

Steve W

It seems logical that some of his reels are from early 1975, because vol 4 or 5 (forthcoming) of the logs cover this period too, including Peel's teatime shows and some saturday afternoon rock weeks...

Anyway, me and Colin have had a crack at trying to work out what the tracks are - and the results are now there to be seen on the wiki, via the link above (tapes 5a, 11 and 12).
