*Track listing below is from Volume 3 of the Decktician Logs. Many thanks to Decktician, Ken Garner for copying and additional information, and Rocker for acting as central HQ.
*Early influences of African music are apparent: after the debut of Fela Kuti's session in the previous show, JP again plays a single from Ethiopia's Getachew Kassa (first played 22 May 1973).
*A debut session by Welsh band Sassafras, never among the big names of their era but hard workers - according to Wikipedia they hold the UK record for the number of live gigs perfomed in a year.
