Dallas Taylor
Chris Salewicz, Let It Rock, May 1973
IT'S JUST an office-type office. No Habitat or Heals lunar module seats. Just a desk and a couple of chairs. Plus one of those huge brown ash-trays that you lean your cigarette into and it disappears forever. Definitely not made with a Design Council award in mind. Red and white packs everywhere. Marlboroughs. Sorry. Marlbrers. I light one and lose it straightaway in the ash-tray. Where are the Whoopee cushions?
