1973 WAS the heyday of glam, as well as Christmas records (see blog above). Here we see the top ten hits of the year being dominated by songs by Slade, The Sweet, Wizzard and Gary Glitter, whilst a little further down we would see T Rex, Mud, Kenny, Alice Cooper and Suzi Quatro. Slade and Sweet were liked more by the hard guys at school, which is funny really when you see just how camp The Sweet were in their Top of the Pops performances. I talk about my favourite, Wizzard in the post above.
