As for my own 1973 list? I’ll have to get back to you at a later point. The year is littered with greatness.
Thanks - yes Red Hash is a lovely listen from start to finish I think. Shame he didn't get to make a follow up (not counting his 2009-release, which I haven't heard) - and that your copy is lost:)

-Yep so much great releases this year, I could easily have made a killer top fifty of hundred) for 1973, but I find the lists of people that limits themselves a little more interesting.
