I've been doing my homework, and found a link for that series of Fred Frith guitar columns for NME, 1974:

http://harsmedia.com/pdftrib/FredFrithNMEArticles.pdf

It's a jumpy sport of read, scans of the original NME pages, and presented in reverse chronological order for some reason. But great stuff, if you're a guitar geek at all.
