Tracklisting

 * David Gates: Took The Last Train (7") Elektra
 * (JP: 'It does sound like something from Saturday Night Fever...The only amusing aspect to it is his French, which sounded like a graduate of Winston Churchill's school of French')


 * Enchantment: If You're Ready (Here It Comes) (7") United Artists
 * (JP: 'I don't think it would be a hit, but I rather see it as a hit than David Gates')


 * unknown: 'Walking Fan'
 * (JP: 'Sounded like late 60's, 67, 68, something like that... sounded like the kind of Belgian businessmen put together... a waste of vinyl')


 * Randy Meisner: Bad Man (LP - Randy Meisner) Asylum
 * (JP: 'These days if you make a record in California, you have to be careful because unless you lock the studio doors, the Eagles are likely to come in and say wow guys, you making a record... it's OK California music, which means fairly boring in my book')


 * Johnny Rivers: Swayin' To The Music (LP - Outside Help) Polydor Super
 * (JP: 'He's a version man, he does other people's songs')


 * Klark Kent: Don't Care (7") Kryptone
 * (JP: 'Single I played 3 tracks of it on the programme last night'... A nice little record')


 * Robert Palmer: Every Kinda People (7") Island
 * (JP: 'It leaves me fairly kind of cold')


 * Foreigner: Cold As Ice (7") Atlantic
 * (JP: 'It lacks should I say energy...It's Cold As Ice, as you say, it's flat and it's dead')


 * Alan Price: I Wanna Dance (7") Jet
 * (JP: 'I'm embarrassed, my producer (John Walters) used to work with Alan Price... he's (John Walters) a mate of Alan Price, so I hope neither of them are listening)'


 * Culture: Love Shine Bright (LP - Harder Than The Rest) Front Line
 * (JP: 'I think it's beautiful I do and it's a marvelous LP... It does seem to be silly that a 38 year old ex public school boy should be the only person on the radio playing reggae...At the moment I think I enjoy reggae more than any other form of music')


 * Judie Tzuke: For You (7") The Rocket
 * (JP: 'I need to hear it a few more times')


 * Who: Who Are You (7" - Had Enough / Who Are You) Polydor

 * (JP: 'For me it's absolutely nothing, it's dead')


 * Jane Aire & The Belvederes: I'm An Actress (v/a LP - The Akron Compilation) Stiff
 * (JP: 'So there are a lot of boring stuff from Akron, Ohio, but there are also happily one or two good things, Jane Aire & The Belvederes for example...')
