SOUNDS OF THE SEVENTIES

Compilation broadcast on BBC TV 1995, rebroadcast BBC4 2005.

This is episode 8 of the serie Sounds of the Seventies. A series of 10 episodes that I found on the excellent tracker www.thebox.bz where it was upped
by "alucard"(all credits to him). I give it to you one episode at the time.

Episode 8: SMASH IT UP - 28 Minutes
