Have you seen that advert for Polyfilla (or something)
that has a multiple choice question re how you'd deal with woodchip wallpaper?

The first answer is

1) accept that you are stuck in 1973

How we 'lol' EVERY TIME it's on.

Have you seen the Life on Mars soundtrack CD, Monters?
It's all 1973. Granted, Bowie's on it by default, but there's some good stuff on it.

I have not.
Classic Rock magazine declared it the best year for rock music EVER. They made a strong case for it but I wonder if '69 or '70 might have been better.

'73 was the year that also gave us Montgomery Peregrine St John Boyce, though.

Ms Foxtrot impressed me by knowing the words to WigWam Bam when it was on the radio the other day
Sweet are one of the only bands of that era I have any real affection for
