Suzi Quatro : You Don't Have To Be A Dyke…
Charles Shaar Murray, NME, 6 October 1973
I FIRST ran into Suzi Quatro late last year. She was a nice, bouncy little American chick who played bass, wrote songs, was forming a band and had just put out a flop single. I dug her attitude to life and other semi-related topics, quite got off on her record, flawed though it was, put her in the Interesting To See What She Does Next department.
