Daevid was on fine form - some pretty nifty guitar work there. Drums and bass were tight, really good. Theo Travis was excellent on the new material, Magdalene what can I say, but on the older material, whilst technically amazing, lacked Didier's feel. I was a bit disappointed in the new keyboard player, Gwyo, he seemed very low down in the mix - with a distinct lack of synth, more organ stabs. Gilli was on form but again her voice seemed to be mixed low - grinning ear to ear for the whole show too (ho,ho). Dave -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This is the results: [BOC-l-archive: 1995, 1997, 1999] If I could find that paper clip, I'll scan the Space Poppers and make it available on the net. ------------------------------------ 1973.09.15 Swedish television filmed a Peace and Love festival in Scandinavium, Gothenburg, where the Hawks was one of 6-8 bands playing all night. The whole set was filmed, and was broadcasted almost a year later - 1974.07.26 - in our second uncommercial channel TV2, local time 21:35. I got a clip from the tv guide in the local tabloid paper Aftonbladet 26th of July 1974, saying "Rymdpop, Tasavallan och Pugh i j?ttegala" There's a big color pic of an eight musicnauts strong Hawkwind, along with the following [fast] translated text: "The pop festival in Gothenburg was a disapoinment, said the critics. The English Space Poppers Hawkwind, with its light- and soundshow "Space Ritual" was one of the more interesting piece, meant one recencent." The Hawkwind shot was well cut down - only a 2-3 mins passage of the second verse of Master of the Universe was left - but "it was HEAVY" claims hawkfriend K.S?ren Bengtsson of darXtar, who is remembering Seeing It As It Really Were in his parents television set. Nazareth was on the festival bill, but didn't show up. Hawkwind was probably on stage at the same minute our old king died, that very evening in 1973. There was no mention of something Earthly as a pop festival in the papers the days after, for understandable reasons. If you got a time machine, and manage to tune in 26th of July, National Swedish Broadcast TV2, 21:35 - you've also got 2-3 minutes of Master of the Universe. Unfortunally the Royal Swedish Television have erased all media from this event to save Space on their shelves. peace, .joe -------------- Smith & Wesson - the original point and click interface From nick at HERMIT0.DEMON.CO.UK Fri Dec 1 13:35:14 2000 From: nick at HERMIT0.DEMON.CO.UK (Nick Medford) Date: Fri, 1 Dec 2000 13:35:14 -0500 Subject: HW: Alan Davey solo Message-ID: After seeing Bedouin at Brixton I feel I should check out some of Alan's solo stuff.

The short answer is that, to me, it sounds exactly like the released track, minus any vocal overdubs, so that would put the recording date as early '75 (same as the rest of the 'Warrior' LP ... I don't know the *exact* dates they were in the studio, but the album was released in May? 1975, right?). What I *suspect*, is that during the recording of 'Warrior', the band (or at least Dave, and presumably the "soloists"/vocalists - Nik, Simon House & Lemmy), received rough mixes of the basic tracks, before any overdubs were recorded (definitely standard practice in multi-track recording). That would explain why the version of "Motorhead" doesn't have the original sax, violin and vocal overdubs. The Flicknife versions of both "Kings of Speed" AND "Motorhead" would have come from these (hypothetical) tapes - the former in its original form, the latter with Dave's vocal & synth overdubs done contemporary to the release, NOT the original recording. The giveaway for that hypothesis (overdubs done late 70s/early 80s, NOT '75) is the "popping" synth noises. Had they been recorded in '75, the synth used would have been either EMS (Synthi AKS), Moog (Minimoog), or possibly ARP (Odyssey or 2600). The sound is clearly an LFO-modulated resonant filter, and it sounds nothing like the filters of those instruments. However, it does sound A LOT like the resonant filter of a Korg MS-20 (first manufactured in 78 or 79), which Dave & Hawkwind were using extensively circa 80/83 (it's listed on the 'Church of Hawkwind' gear list). I prefer the synth overdubs of the Flicknife version to the violin & sax on the original (those instruments just don't seem right for the band that was named after the song, but the synths are sufficiently aggressive ... and the synth "notes" [as opposed to "noises] sound awful close to the guitar solo Fast Eddie played on live versions the song - 'No Sleep Til Hammersmith' etc.), but nobody can sing that song like Lemmy can! Anyone else have thoughts on this? -Doug ceres at sirius.com From bernhard.pospiech at HOME.INS.DE Fri Dec 1 16:14:31 2000 From: bernhard.pospiech at HOME.INS.DE (Bernhard Pospiech) Date: Fri, 1 Dec 2000 22:14:31 +0100 Subject: HW: 1970 - 1980 Video/film footage - what is out there?

(On one of the 5 standard UK channels) I think the whole point of the programme was to show various members of the audience as they were then, and as they are now. During one particular IoW shot, I swear I saw Nik strolling around. Just a 2 or 3 second shot.

So if you were gonna list recording dates for this you'd have to say '75/sometime in the early '80s. I love that "popping", though I think of it more as "the machine gun", and when playing air-instruments to this, I take that stance. as for the vox, I actually dig Dave, especially that "ohhh!!" towards the end, which actually isn't present on some Anthology/AD versions, requiring yet another Codex entry just for one stupid little (but very awesome) "Ohhhh!". hmm, Chuck From Chuckrecs at AOL.COM Fri Dec 1 17:25:41 2000 From: Chuckrecs at AOL.COM (Chuck Rosenberg) Date: Fri, 1 Dec 2000 17:25:41 EST Subject: OFF: "Space Does Not Care" Play-list 11/25/00 Message-ID: 11/25/00 1.Silver Apples--Oscillations (Silver Apples ST'd LP and MCA comp) 2.

It was a strange programme. A motley assortment of acts (mostly second-string HM bands) performed live in an empty studio. Nul points for atmosphere. Hawkwind were the only decent band I can remember being on it. They looked totally out of it and I remember Brock caused a bit of a stir by saying 'we like smoking The Right Stuff' at the conclusion of the song. The prog was shown at about 5.30pm and there was at least one article (or maybe a letter) I read in the press expressing outrage at this shameful attempt to encourage the nation's youth to break the law (I'm paraphrasing but you can imagine how it went). As an impressionable 16 or 17 year old I was shocked- by the bile in the newspaper that is, not by Brocky's comment, which struck me as no more than a simple statement of fact. -- Nick Medford From starfield at SUPANET.COM Fri Dec 1 18:36:37 2000 From: starfield at SUPANET.COM (starfield) Date: Fri, 1 Dec 2000 23:36:37 -0000 Subject: HW: 1970 - 1980 Video/film footage - what is out there?

No inspiration at all, approximately half a riff made to do an album's work, poor singing (practically spoken word), a few flashes of overworked humour the only light patches. Oh and one faintly psychedelic buildup of multi-tracked guitar in the second half which only goes to show how poor the other similar track in the first half is.

The albums that seem to be readily obtainable are Captured Rotation, Chaos Delight, and (confusingly enough) Bedouin. Reviews, comments, recommendations? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Captured Rotation is the shit! Must have for any Alan Davey/ Hawkfan Ron Tree on 3 tracks. 'nough said! Bedouin: Good, but can't touch CR. More straight ahead and less spacerock. Also, has the obvious middle eastern tunes. A little disappointing after CR and kinda weak compared to the others. Best Tune is the 11:19 minute Wadi Dhar. The rest of the tunes are in the 5:00 min range. Bedouin - Live In Europe Summer 1998 1) Sword Of The East - Kicks Ass! 2) Wings - Pretty cool interpretation. 3) Rock Palace - Opening track from Chaos Delight 2 minutes longer than the studio track and better. 4) Arioch - Kicks Ass! 5) Bass Junk - Also pretty cool. Crisp "live" SBD recording. More on the metal side and less on the spacerock side. Possibly the most similar to what you saw at Brixton, but from the accounts that I have read, not quite as heavy...(?) Total Time: 29:26 Must have! Sci-Fi-delic 1) Sci-fi-delic - driving spacerock instrumental, basic but excellent. 2)Vulcan Ritual - less driving, more ambient spacerock instrumental 3) Interceptor 1 - catchy spacerock instrumental. Somewhat Krel-like w/ a guitar edge. 4) Holosuite Program - very middle eastern spacey instrumental. 5) Eagle Alpha - Driving spacerock instrumental w/ heavy drums. Excellent. This resembles Captured Rotation more than the others, but more basic, not as "produced" and no Ron Tree. Alan plays all instruments w/ emphasis on synths and not too much guitar. Also, crisp "studio" recording. tracks average in the 5:00 range. Total time 24:49. Must have. Don't have Chaos Delight. I am told that it is better than the S/T Bedouin. Waiting for Jerry Kranitz or someone in the USA to get me a copy. (hint ") Hope this Helps!

You mentioned that they were going to do a special offer which was buy 3 cd's for something like ?25 (sorry i could be wrong about the price!) and the overall costs would be cheaper. Because of Brixton academy putting their mark up on all merchandise sold this didn't happen.

Yeah sure,I can ignore it,but it's just good clean fun you know. I buy the record and the salesman says:"Have you seen the boobies ?" And I say:"No,I only buy it for the Hawkwind connection". You should see his face,he's thinking:"What kind of animal it that,Hawkwind ?" So he never heard of Hawkwind,it's really funny. And I only pay 50p a record you know,that's not the end of the world. Wouldn't go to prices like I did just now on an Isralian "Silver Machine" on e-bay. Well if you're interested,I've got now 145 times "Silver Machine" on different 7",12",lp's and cd's.

Message-ID: I can remember waaaay back on Australian TV - about 1976/77 - there used to be a music request show called JTK. This show used to run for about 15 minutes, just before the news and someone requested a Hawkwind song. The song was Silver Machine and it was done live. Was this the Silver Machine pro? I wonder if the ABC would still have a copy of it? Bill London 1970 - thirty minutes (no sound) pro? Isle Of Wight - 5 seconds + ? pro Silver Machine pro Space Ritual (b&w) - rumoured - no sightings 1974 Scandanavian pro 1977 tour audience no sound 1977 Marc Bolan TV show 1980 German TV Can anyone expand on this?

Judging by the places I stayed in October, 35 pounds gets you a postage stamp, 55 gets you a larger (commemorative-issue? :-) postage stamp with a decent sort-of-continental breakfast. Both of those were singles with ensuite bathrooms, btw; I'm sure we can save a few pounds by trudging down the hall to the loo. I haven't been following the party-after-the-party thread; do we know yet where it's happening? How close to it does our hotel need to be? What facilities do we want, for the "organise a party, and invite Hawkwind" part? Is anyone in a better position to organize this than I am (ie. have a decent travel agent, or a friend in London to do the legwork)? -- | | /\ |-_|/ > Eric Siegerman, Toronto, Ont. erics at telepres.com | | / Nobody ever got fired for buying Microsoft -- but they could get fired for relying on Microsoft. - Chris Garrigues From starfield at SUPANET.COM Mon Dec 4 16:16:15 2000 From: starfield at SUPANET.COM (starfield) Date: Mon, 4 Dec 2000 21:16:15 -0000 Subject: HW:Samantha Fox Message-ID: Completism?

I have everything by Gong with Tim Blake (and a couple Gong records without him including the Dasheil Hedayat album with Allen/Malherbe/etc., and Hillage's 'Fish Rising', but unfortunately not the Clearlight LP he's on), the Japan & Bowie albums with Simon House (not to mention the amazing High Tide and Third Ear Band's 'Macbeth', but unfortunately NOT the Denny Gerrard album that High Tide play on - anyone know where I can get that?), the Adrian Wagner album with Bob Calvert (and all of Bob's solo stuff, OF COURSE!), all the Magic Muscle (Ade Shaw) I've been able to get my hands on, all the "real" Pink Fairies and Deviants albums with Paul Rudolph (heck, all the "real PF's and Deviants albums, PERIOD - Sid Bishop was A-OK and I'm pretty much a Larry Wallis compleatist, too), all the good stuff (including the Tomorrow, Pretty Things, Plasticland, Bevis Frond and Elton Motello albums he's on, and some of the bad stuff) by Twink, the Sam Gopal LP (gotta get that Rockin' Vicars comp CD!) and the Opal Butterfly single with Lemmy, everything by ICU (except the mediocre Dave Anderson-released album) & Nik solo ("Space Ritual" etc.) & the CD reissue of the "Nuclear Waste" 7", the first two Amon D?ul II albums (which I'm mighty glad I got into because of the Dave Anderson connection ... the next 3 ADII albums are all ace in my book, too), both Captain Jesus and the Sunray Dream albums, and probably a couple other things I'm forgetting. On the other hand, I don't own the Comus album with Keith Hale, I don't own any Widowmaker or other Huw stuff, nothing with Ginger Baker on it (not even Cream or Graham Bond ... although I wouldn't mind having the Fela album that he's on) or any other Hawkwind drummer stuff (Chicken Shack, Portishead, New Model Army, Cure, etc.), the Swindells solo albums (wouldn't mind having the second one w/all the Hawkwind members and "Shot Down In The Night") or Pilot, Melodic Energy Commission (another one probably worth having), Smart Pils or Hippy Slags or Tubilah Dog (except TAT), and I could stand to pick up a couple more Alan Davey-related items (especially after reading the recent thread!). And slightly more than a half-dozen Motorhead albums/EP's. I'd bet that my collection is about "average" for this bunch (175 different "Silver Machine" 7"s?!?!? I've got a LOT of catching up to do to match that!) and nothing spectacular around here ... -Doug ceres at sirius.com From RMayo19761 at AOL.COM Mon Dec 4 16:53:21 2000 From: RMayo19761 at AOL.COM (Robert C.

But on checking the credits on the NYC Live album, there he is, Clive Deamer. Who was a Hawk for, what, 3 months or something? I find the whole concept of this kind of completism a bit baffling. Example: I bought one Lloyd-Langton Group 12" and thought it was terrible. That was enough to convince me I didn't want to buy anymore. In all honesty it would never occur to me to buy a record I thought was crap just because there was some vague connection with a band I liked.

Captured Rotation is the best album Hawkwind didn't record in the 90s (and better than some they did record ;) I quite like it, though it's not nearly as heavy as Bedouin live. The Bedouin album itself is not bad, but it didn't grab me the way Captured Rotation did. Haven't heard Chaos Delight yet.

True, Danny played at Stonehenge '84, but didn't become an "official" member until a year later. I still think it's too bad that the 'Earth Ritual' album that would have been recorded by the Brock/Turner/Lloyd-Langton/Bainbridge/Reeves/Deamer lineup (with special guest Lemmy) never came to pass.

Total ACK.

He shares the pole position with Dead Fred (March '83 - June '84). Both were HW-members for about 1 year 3 months.

Only the Voiceprint stuff and I think the Chiswick material is around, although Captain Trips in Japan recently still had copies of the above two Fairies albums plus the Hawkfairies album and the Pinkwind album, both of which we regularly stock at CD Services for the Hawkwind connections, despite the fact that they are pretty average albums. Check us out in a week or two when we should have all these back again. Paul Rudolph is still alive and well and living in Canada so if someone can track him down then an interview is well overdue methinks - any of our magazine ferrets willing to get on the case???

Re-Star Nation, I see that Jerry and Richard have provided some info, so you all know what is happening. The reasons and problems aside, what it means tro CD Services customers is that we are being sold just 100 copies only by the band and will be supplying the first 100 orders that came in, in date order. After this we WILL contact anyone and direct them to the group who will then be able to sell it to that person, but only by cheque or postal order payment. IF possible we will try and get another 10 off the band so that we can satisfy the whole lot who have pre-ordered so far , but anyone who has placed an order will be contacted one way or the other. Anyone with any questions, e.mail me at: agcdser at aol.com The Spacebrock is out but I've not heard it yet as been away.One of the things that turned up on return to work was the confusion about title and name - we listed originally Dave Brock-Brockspace and now it's turned into Hawkwind-Spacebrock. Dave can probably clarify this but even tho' it is a solo album, as such, the label have almost certainly done it like this so that the chain shops particulalry who buy it, actually put it in the Hawkwind section!!!

Has anyone here ordered from them before? I ordered 11 CD's and got a message asking me to fax or post a copy of my credit card. The email said it was standard mail order company procedure, but this is the first time I've ever been asked to do this and I do a LOT of mail order. I don't mind doing it if it's standard practice for them, they already have all my personal info and there's nothing on a photocopy that they don't already know. Now all I have to do is hit the lottery so I can tell them to send me everything in their catalog :) Is my boc-l shirt a collectors item yet? It's nice to see some familiar names still on the list (FoFP, Carl, Jill, Johan, Bernhard) . Two or three years is too long of a hiatus. I have a lot of catching up to do.

I haven't got my copy of Ade's gig list here, but I think I'm right in saying that Danny was at Crystal Palace, in summer 1985, but I don't know who played at Westbury White Horse Hill. There's only a very few gigs during this period, so quoting an official line-up is rather difficult anyhow! On the subject of Westbury, wasn't that Nik's last gig before his second ejection?

Actual,she must be ok,as it's the second time she connects with Hawkwind and I don't think she was payed for her apperience on the Brixton night. So thumbes up for her.(I even think she will appear on the Christmas gig) Anyway,for us completists,it's funny to buy "Samantha Fox" records. Been to a record-fair 2 weeks ago and at a certain dealer there was a special section with Fox records and at rather high prices.

OK. What we need is a solid idea of the number of rooms that'd need to be booked. How many for the band and retinue Dave? The rest of you should let us know how many rooms too.

It was kind of interesting. Almost all cover songs, usually early British Invasion standards type stuff. One interesting tidbit was a Townsend tune called "It's Alright" which was later reworked into "The Kids are Alright". For the compleatist in me, it was a most satisfying purchase. JB PS. The kid got the newish Motorhead 25 year double CD, and a copy of Iron Maiden/Killers. He may not like it, but I'm sure it will annoy his mom:-) PPS.

I don't know. Anyway, before this develops to a point that gets silly, let me take this ooportunity to explain that the CD Services website has been the longest construction job to happen since the Golden Gate Bridge. We will have a rather decent site together soon with tons of offer items and excerpts from the catalogues, regular updates, etc. But we are also mindful of the majority (and it is) of our customers who do not have access to the internet, and to that end the catalogues in print will continue to take priority. When you see that I review CD's for twelve different musical genres (for example the Euro-rock/Contemporary catalogues alone, all together, are the equivalent of over 80 pages long!!! - and that's just the one catalogue, constantly being updated), and that the Hawkwind side is but one of my interests, you will see why time to construct the site is hard to find. But it will happen, and soon, and with a secure site, etc, etc. So, no complete catalogue is available to download but if you want all of them mailing, just let me know and it shall be done. Incidentally all the stuff you ordered from Delerium is also available from us - what you must remember is that we have this enormous worldwide access to anything available on CD that's in print - just ask and we'll quote a price and delievery time -after all not even Amazon can stock 650.000 actual titles!!!!

I always hoped you'd never mention the VAT angle because I well remember back at the start of the 90's (before I started Cranium Music)when I was buying ALOT of music from a place in the midlands that a certain writer of this article used to work at charging me VAT on orders that were coming here to New Zealand. When I questioned this I was told "I will have to ask the accountant about whether VAT should be charged or not". Nothing ever happened so I stopped buying.

It would be a good idea to organise an hotel for everyone. Hawkwind would stay as well if it could be got together. The Thistle Hotel Bloomsbury Park (formally The Kingsbury) would be ideal as it is not too far to walk from the gig, being near to the British Museum.(Don't know the e-mail etc) We have booked a club for the party. This is close to the Astoria, but we like the idea of a convention type thing in an hotel. Lets get a list of names together and see what sort of deals the hotels are prepared to offer. There is also the Kensington Gardens Thistle Hotel in Bayswater Road (Taxi ride away from gig) e-mail: Kensington.Gardens at Thistle.co.uk If it is workable, a hotel would be good for all. We have loads to do at the moment, so if someone else could organise this, that would be great! A special announcement soon to follow about the gig by the way..........!

I like the Rush of the Farewell to Kings-Hemispheres-2112 era. Geddy's vocals don't bother me. I guess partly out of respect to Theo, we avoid bringing it up that much. I also rather liked Signals. Most of the stuff they've done since then I don't care for. Hey, everyone has got to have their pet dislikes. I was never all that fond of 'Brainstorm'. About the only version of it I ever liked was the one on Live '79. See? And I can't stand 'Watching the Grass Grow'.

I figured that I was the only one who wasn't fond of Brainstorm. For me, I think it mostly has to do with Nik's atrocious vocals.

Maybe, others have not done chains before either. Most of the time, things are handled as a tree. Someone has the show and people volunteer to be a branch if they can make copies and others are merely leaves. The leaves handle their portion by doing B&P's. For those of you that don't know, a B&P is Blanks and return postage. Maybe someone thought that they could keep the copy... I personally don't think that the chain idea works that well. It seems as though the recent posts are evidence to support this fact. I did a couple trees on this list this year and they worked fine. I suggest that in the future we go back to the tree structure. This will make each participant responsible more for themselves and others less dependent on someone in front of them. This does put more responsibility on the person that has the source show. If that person does not want the responsibility, they could make a copy of the show for someone that will accept the responsibility. If not, that should not even bother in the first place. Just a thought. D-Rider _____________________________________________________________________________________ Get more from the Web.

It'll work in my PC but who wants to listen to crappy computer speakers, and its distorted too. All I wanted was a copy to play at home! By the way, the artwork shows 2 discs, but only one was sent to me. Am I missing the point here? HELP!

And I was one of about 6 or 7 fans After the CD was created, the owner posted all 7 e-mail addresses to each fan. The addresses were in a special order. 1st there were UK addresses and I (from Germany) was the last on this small list what made sense because to safe money the master CD was copied to fans in the UK first After this I have received the original CD. I made a copy for me and wanted to send the original back to the owner. But he told me that I was indeed the last one on the list and I could do with the original CD what I want. Yes, I have got now this CD !!! Now to you Jeff Please have a look on your CD and you will find a README.TXT file which says: =========================================================================== =========== Hawkwind - Choose the Side that You'll be on.. Contents: Tracks for disc I and II in SHN format. Front cover artwork Inner front cover artwork (optional, requires printing on both sides of paper) Back cover artwork Shorten.exe Unshort.bat Readme.txt(this file) Instructions: Copy the all the SHN tracks to an empty directory on your hard drive(make sure you have 2 gigs free). Copy shorten.exe and unshort.bat to the same directory In MSDOS, in the directory with the files, type "unshort" (shorten.exe will then unzip all of the audio tracks to their wav format, this may take 20 minutes on a slow computer) Once shorten is done verify you have the all the tracks in wav format in the directory. Open your favorite cdr burning program and burn the two discs (see the back cover artwork for correct track order), using disc at once. If you want the artwork print out the two(three) jpg files. Contact the next person in the chain and send the chain disc on. =========================================================================== ============ Thats it !!!

Pink Floyd covers seem de rigeur nowadays. Col. Les Claypool's Fearless Flying Frog Brigade have been covering the entire _Animals_ album from start to finish in their second set quite often these days, as well as other Floyd numbers like "Shine On You Crazy Diamond." This Halloween, moe. covered the entire _Dark Side of the Moon_ album during their first set. Some "jambands" have covered entire classic albums as a special occasion during their Halloween show. That got me to thinking: what "classic" album would Hawkwind or BOC cover for a Halloween show? It would have to be something for which they felt an affinity; kind of like something that expressed their "roots." Any ideas? Cheers, Paul.

And Delerium has zero presence in the US anymore, so hard to make a global impact with any new release. >Also to be sort of on topic: I heard briefly mentioned here a few weeks >ago the Acid Jam II by Bevis Frond members.

Viva is live from Quarkstock (I was there!) and despite a few bits of extraneous noise (pops) on the source tape, the recording is pretty good. And the performance is stellar. They put it out themselves, so best to email Paul or Greg (arcmet at yahoo.com I think) and get it direct. Tracks are: Overture 1369 (2:34) Sur Le Tour (8:39) The Maker (4:59) For A Few Moments (4:40) Echoes (22:44) Kairos (13:41) As far as Odysseum Galacti goes, I just ordered one from www.parasol.com for a whopping $3.50. You might want to check there to see if they have any more copies at that price.

For my part as Dead Earnest label owner, if I want to do a CD with someone I will tell them, but if I'm not ready to do it right now, then I tell the band to try others and if, when I'm ready, they still haven't got a deal, then we can do it - fair to me - fair to the band. Actually I didn't know Darxtar had recorded a new album at all so if they're listening and the Delerium ink isn't dry then I'd like a shot at hearing it. As to new Arch Met CD, it's fantastic and, for UK/Euro customers, will be available from CD Services if only they'd (Arch Met that is) reply to my e.mail. More to follow, no doubt.......

Wouldn't we all! But from what I hear the tapes are with Delerium and the release deal signed, it's just that Delerium isn't doing anything at all any more as far as anyone can tell. Though their web-page was in part updated last month to show some new Porcupine Tree dates, and they had new product available (by two bands no-one's ever heard of) last year. But since then, nada, and they don't answer e-mails anymore. I must ask Ken at the Freak Emporium when next I see him. As far as I know no current members of Darxtar are on this list though Captain Juba is sometimes seen here. I do have an e-mail address fro the Commander if you want it, Andy, but I've no proof it works or that he ever checks it if it does.

Shockingly I didn't actually know the name Mike Howlett when I last saw a copy of this (it may still be there for all I know), so I don't rememebr it being there, but I know that the chief mover and shaker on this project was Hari Williamson, who brought Nik with him from Sphynx which is why he's one there; Steve Hillage likewise. I believe Miquette Giraudy is also on it somewhere. I have a nagging feeling that it may also have an ex-Hawk drumming but I'm not sure which one. Either Alan Powell or Andy Anderson I suppose given that they were in Sphynx, but they'd both gone by the time Sphynx got on the road so perhaps I'm just raving. This time when I go into the shop I saw it in I shall be prepared to buy it :-) Yours, Jon -- Jon Jarrett (01223 514989) jjarrett at chiark.greenend.org.uk ===================================================================== "There's nothin' more dangerous than a wounded mosquito."

Davey plays all the instruments and the album is overall similar to "Captured Rotation", except this new one ROCKS MUCH HARDER! Includes a 12-page comic book. Architectural Metaphor - Creature Of The Velvet Void (1997): One of the USA's longest lived spacerock bands plays a cosmic set that combines the best of Hawkwind, Pink Floyd, and Tangerine Dream to produce a haunting sound that is completely their own. Includes covers of Hawkwind's "Golden Void" and The Velvet Underground's "All Tomorrow's Parties". Faust - The Land Of Ukko & Rauni (2000): A 2-CD live set recorded April 20, 2000 in Helsinki, Finland at the Tavastia Club. These Krautrock pioneers have in no way lost their edge over the years. A wonderful performance of avant garde space, psychedelia, and general Faustian mania. Circle - Prospekt (2000): One of Aural Innovations' most frequently covered bands, and we're thrilled to have finally added them to the catalog. Spacerock, post-rock, experimental... this band defies easy descriptions. Pounding rhythms, aggressive guitar assaults, and Hammond organ, make for a wonderful freakout set. These guys really do have their own sound. Nebula Trip - Birth (1999): Nebula Trip play improvised instrumental spacerock along the lines of Ozric Tentacles and Tribe Of Cro, though the pace isn't as frenzied as the Ozrics. I love the deep thudding bass beat, as well as the combination of the often symphonic keys and acidic guitar. These are in addition to our regular stock of CD's by SubArachnoid Space, Mushroom, Mr Quimby's Beard, Hardy (keyboardist from Mr Quimby's Beard), Afresco Mantis, Krom Lek, Census Of Hallucination, The Rabbit's Hat, Quarkspace, National Steam, Krel, Spacehead, JFK Jr Royal Airforce, W.O.O. Revelator, World Of Tomorrow, Ernesto Diaz-Infante & Rotcod Zzaj, The Imaginary Band, The Moondance Experiment, Music From The Future, Spaceship Eyes, and Escape Velocity. We also have numerous selections from the Garden Of Delights reissue label. For full descriptions and ordering information go to http://Aural- Innovatons.com and click on the mail order link on our main page. Aural Innovations is an online web-zine covering all forms of spacerock, psychedelia, electronica, and freaked out jazz. Our web site is LOADED with reviews, interviews, and articles, and we also have a radio show that you can listen to in streaming RealAudio. http://Aural-Innovations.com From henderson.120 at OSU.EDU Sat Dec 9 17:32:42 2000 From: henderson.120 at OSU.EDU (K Henderson) Date: Sat, 9 Dec 2000 17:32:42 -0500 Subject: HW: More completism Message-ID: Nick said... >On Sat, 9 Dec 2000, Nick Medford wrote: > >> In message <200012091451.JAA22604 at listserv.spc.edu>, Rik Rx > B.ORG> writes >> >just to throw a spanner in the works.. >> > >> >rooting through the collection i found an interesting CD >> >"Nuclear Waste" by Sting and The Radioactors.... >> >The lineup is wayy interesting on 3 tracks... >> > >> >Vocals : Sting >> >Lead Guitar : Steve hillage - (why i bought it) >> >Sax & Backing vocals: Nik Turner >> > >> >and guess what... it's a voiceprint cd (BP181CD) >> >> Wasn't Gong bassist Mike Howlett also involved? The band was actually the >> genesis of the Police, of course all the psychedelic warriors had left by >> then. Perhaps you're thinking of the band Strontium 90, which was Howlett/Sumner/Somers/Copeland. The album they recorded (which I don't think was ever released on LP) was recently put out on CD, with liner notes by Howlett. I have it, but haven't played it in awhile, but I do remember that it contained as bonus track an early acoustic version of 'Every Little Thing She Does is Magic' by Sting, which oddly enough was really the first Police track written, though it was released on one of the later albums. Not sure whether the Nuclear Waste session pre- or post-dated the 90Sr stuff, but I think it's pretty obvious that the Hillage/Turner/Williamson connection to Sting and the Howlett connection to the Police are not coincidental. So, should I take my Police albums out of my classic rock section, and put them into my Hawkwind section now? And how 'bout Animal Logic, with Copeland on drums? Grakkl (FAA) P.S. I just bought a DVD player. I think somebody said that the Chronicle video is available in this format? Anything else of interest in the space-rock/psychedelia vein? It's a cheap model that doesn't play VCD's (or CD-R's), but I can play regular CD's over my TV speaker (and my stereo speakers simultaneously since everything's connected through my VCR) which is rather peculiar. Not an improvement really, but just peculiar. :) ObDVD: Brazil - The Criterion Collection (I hope it comes soon...I got nothing to play) :) From andygee at DIAL.PIPEX.COM Sat Dec 9 19:37:47 2000 From: andygee at DIAL.PIPEX.COM (ANDREW GARIBALDI) Date: Sun, 10 Dec 2000 00:37:47 -0000 Subject: atomhenge Message-ID: not you as well - been out for a while squire - are you not on the CD Services catalogue mail-out list???

Tim Blake is there in the list of people who'd played keyboards etc with them (along with Dik Mik, Del Dettmar, Simon House, Paul Hayles, Steve Swindells, Twink, Keith Hale, "and a new member being auditioned at present"). Sad to say that's my only frame of reference, cos I never really listened to anything they did past about 1982.... -----------End of forwarded message----------- So, what I want to know is - who is the 'new member' mentioned?

Is there a connection? :) Grakkl (FAA) "The Dave Brockie Experience" Slave Pit Inc., which has brought you bands like GWAR, The X-Cops, and Death Piggy, now present a new wrinkle in their musical butt -- Dave Brockie Experience. Dave Brockie is the human alter-ego of Oderus Urungus, lead singer of GWAR, and along with his GWAR bandmates Mike Derks (Balsac) and Brad Roberts (Jizmak), have created a unique musical "mess-terpiece" that at once celebrates the tunes of the Slave Pit, while simultaneously exposing you to a load of, uh, new crap! A DBE show is likely to contain equal parts loud and obnoxious new music (played by old people), touching acoustical ballads (that are incredibly stupid), and stand-up comedy (that's not really funny). What a DBE show really thrives on is CHAOS. The music has an improvisational element that assures a different performance everytime. Brockie and his cohorts have been creating bands for years, before GWAR was even a rumor -- this chance to play without eight-hundred pounds of bloody latex hanging off of 'em marks a resurgent chapter in the development of some of the underground's most prolific and dedicated artists. A chapter in which not many people show up...and those who do wish GWAR would come back.

Then they rip you off for a heinous 150quid installation charge(I avoided this because i preordered in June) Then they charge you 39.99 a month. They can convert the line within 3 weeks, it runs on your normal phone line, and both can be on at once, no more engaged tones. What you get is a 576,000KBps always on internet connection through an ADSL modem. There are no Call charges, and your ISP is in with the 39quid rental charge. If you wait a few more weeks some of the other telcos will be doing it for alot less money, but they're concentrating on the South at the minute I guess you have to balance it off against how much you spend at the minute, and whether you need the speed. If you play any online games its superb. If you do mainly email there isn't much of a benefit. For the more advanced web pages, and all that virtual worlds avatar stuff it's great. Obviously if you do alot of MP3s the download speed can be 50k-70k a second so it's excellent for that. 3MB a minute probably, so 20 minutes for a whole album say.

Xenon is a sleeper that sneaks up on you, give it another spin. but hey, everyone likes diferrent stuff and it actually makes sense that we are opposed on these records. in reality, I listen to all Hawkwind and solo stuff, and even I don't care for mr. Swindels solo LP, I've given it many listens, if for no other reason, the Hawkwind member connection. That I'm not a big fan (or fan at all for that matter) of Bruce Springsteen, it is easy to understand why I don't like the Swindels Lp, as it sounded more like "the boss" than Hawkwind.... but that's only my opinion...anyone else? bob In a message dated 12/10/00 10:07:40 AM Pacific Standard Time, dave at PARMA29.FREESERVE.CO.UK writes: > Can't agree here the LP is excellent (you're not saying that Space Bandits > and Codex are better than this, are you?

Yes, I > probably should be able to work it out, but can't due to brain user error. How entirely confusing. After Keith Hale left in 1980 there was no new keyboardist until Frederick Reeves the Earl of Essex in 1983, because as Dave says in the _Sonic Attack_ liner, "Harvey and me could do it". Or am I wrong? My initial conclusion would be that whoever this extra member was he was so awful that Dave decided they'd be better off without a keyboard player :-) N.B. also that Twink above is not *the* Twink but another one who roadied on the 1980 tour and got dragged in to take over from Keith Hale. I believe he also played with Mother Gong though I can't remember where I thought I'd found this out. Anyone else shed any light on this?

Reviewed it at; http://the-rocker.freeservers.com/August2000/reviews.html And said; VARIOUS ARTISTS - Thousand Days Of Yesterdays: A Tribute To Captain Beyond (Record Heaven) Featuring; Pentagram, Rise And Shine, Standarte, Lotus w/ Brian Robertson, ex Thin Lizzy, Flower Kings, Five Fifteen w/Nik Turner, The Quill, Zello, Locomotive Breath, ZoomlenZ - w/ Willie Daffern, Orchid Leaves, Qoph, Abramis Brama Do you ever get the feeling that this whole tribute thing is going a bit too far? In 1972, Captain Beyond released their first album. The band featured ex Deep Purple singer Rod Evans, Rhino and Lee Dorman from Iron Butterfly and Bobby Caldwell from the Johnny Winter Band. Basically sidemen who other, possibly more creative forces, decided had outlived their usefulness. I've heard the original and, although better than Nick Simpers Warhorse, it was nothing special. This tribute CD is based entirely on this, with some additional bonustracks. But do you want to know what's really astonishing? This is bloody brilliant! From the mad guitar on "Dancing Madly Backwards (On A Sea Of Air)" by Pentagram through the twisted riff of "Armworth" by Rise And Shine on into the cascading "Raging River Of Fear" done here by the Flower Kings, this is quite phenomenal. Which goes to show that memory plays tricks. Maybe it's the sheen of a 21st century production, maybe they're just better musicians, whatever, this is superb. We'll even forgive Captain Beyond the Hendrix rip off that is "I Can't Feel Nothing (Part 1)". Chuck in some guest appearances by ex-pat Robbo and Nik Turner honking away merrily on the (surprisingly) funky title track with Five Fifteen, this is virtually faultless. Just to let you know, this spent 3 days in the CD player without a break, seriously jeopardising deadline day for Z. Buy it now.

So maybe that's the one? BTW, the "also" in this quote refers in part to one of the drummers they were using during these rehearsals - Robbie Dobson (ex-Enid).

If I had to whittle it down to a single magic moment, it'd be the sudden key change about 2/3 of the way through Golden Void (studio version). Other Great Hawkwind Moments: The superlative jamming on the Space Ritual version of Orgone Accumulator. The start of Born To Go as you say- haven't heard that version but Space Ritual one is pretty damn wonderful The riff of Treadmill. Harvey's keyboard solo on the Palace Springs version of 'Void'. Simon House's violin solo on Robot Simon House's violin solo on Damnation Alley and not forgetting Simon House's violin solo on Steppenwolf. Lemmy's bass solo on Time We Left Calvert: should possibly have his own section here, some of his vocal phrasings just get me every time... check out the way he sings "..rip up the pages of di-rec-tor-ies.." on High Rise for a fine example. Huw's guitar playing on the live "Assault and Battery/Sleep of a 1000 Tears" medley on Independent Days 2. Dave Brock has produced some brilliant guitar solos too- the live versions of Paradox and Damnation Alley spring to mind.

From memory Robbie Dobson is only on 2 albums- 'In the Region of the Summer Stars' and 'Six Pieces', but I'm not about to rummage through the attic for the albums to check. Possibly he's on some compilations too. FWIW it's worth I think the stuff they did with a full band is OK-ish, the stuff post- 1980 when they were down to duo or trio mostly stinks. A few months ago I was amazed to stumble across an Enid website and even more amazed to discover that the band still exists. Robert John Godfrey evidently reformed the band with an all-new supporting cast. I was surprised -to say the least- as I distinctly remember attending their "farewell gigs" at the Dominion Theatre sometime in the late 80s! Around that time I was going off them in a big way and they're definitely a band that fell by the wayside as far as my personal tastes go. Anyway examination of the website reveals that RJG is every bit as pretentious and self-pitying as he always was, that the sound samples of their more recent output sound exactly like the stuff on their 80s albums, and, worst of all, that RJG has seen fit to put up a page of info about ex-members where we get things like "X- didn't have the fortitude to be in a band that wasn't commercially successful" or "Z- left the band to move to Ireland, since then dogged by drink problems and mental illness". If this is true a) to mention it as part of a snide personal attack is about as cheap as it gets, and b) what the hell is sensitive personal stuff like that doing on a public website- you can be sure he didn't ask the guy's permission! What a thoroughly unpleasant man he must be. -- Nick Medford From Rocker22 at AOL.COM Mon Dec 11 10:18:47 2000 From: Rocker22 at AOL.COM (Rocker22 at AOL.COM) Date: Mon, 11 Dec 2000 10:18:47 EST Subject: OFF : Smile Message-ID: In a message dated 12/08/2000 6:30:31 PM Central Standard Time, andygee at DIAL.PIPEX.COM writes: > yes - but where is the CD of 'Manifest destiny' - "Science Gone To Far" - > Manifest Destiny and Bloodbrothers were not on the Sony label.

Heh, maybe it was Queensryche, and the dude was too tired to finish typing the name? As for CCR, the rest of the guys minus-Fogerty [yeah, right] have been playing for a while as Creedence Clearwater Revisited. Must be that's who's playing.

No question: Steppenwolf, especially the middle section. Its one of the few pieces of music where I melt through the floorboards. Others: The guitar gliss into the main riff of Damnation Alley. The phased/flanged intro, drum roll and crash into the riff of the PXR5 version of Uncle Sam. The bass guitar during the chorus of Mirror of Illusion. The modulation back to the original key towards the end of (studio) Motorway City. A typical brilliant DB economy is the CoH Nuclear Drive where an entire song is just one repeated pumping chord. The synth swoop into that crashing riff of Dust Of Time then of course there is Huw's brilliant solo. The lyric "Nostrils flare ..." from Angels of Death. The lyrics for QS&C. The Orgone Accumulator riff intro as it should be heard (ie: SR2). Moonglum. The up-tempo section of Children of the Sun. How could I forget... Urban Guerilla. The silence between the tracks on IITBOTFTBD. The lyric "Put stripes on the stars" from Uncle Sam. Dave's brilliant "walk-about" solo from the Camden Music Machine gig (1977) in Uncle Sam (again!). Uncle Sam again... PXR5 version... about the point of the lyric "He's looking for a life", Dave switches his rhythm guitar from syncopated to bouncing on the beat - really shifts the intensity. The bass work in High Rise. Most refined studio album: Levitation. The ability of DB to write so many different songs based on the same riff. The bleak and desolate but incredibly powerful version of Golden Void as performed at Hammersmith in December 1988. Live versions of Utopia. This could go on forever...

Studio - the bass organ riff and violin solo in Damnnation Alley. I've always loved that line, and it's a standard one for me to use when I check out sounds on a new keyboard/module. Got to play it on a huge pipe organ once, woah! Live - has to be the California Brainstorm show, but I just can't decide between 2 moments in the show. One was when Bridget was doing this swirly dance thing with light-up juggling clubs; I can't even remember what song this was during, it was just so trippy. The other, and most proably the winner, was Bridget's tortured 'spoken' intro to Ejection. I was right up against the stage almost in front of her, and the overall effect of the music, lights, and her vocal just sent serious chills up and down my spine. scorch From henderson.120 at OSU.EDU Mon Dec 11 15:36:50 2000 From: henderson.120 at OSU.EDU (K Henderson) Date: Mon, 11 Dec 2000 15:36:50 -0500 Subject: HW: finest moments Message-ID: Scorch said... >Live - has to be the California Brainstorm show, but I just can't decide >between 2 moments in the show.

My choice is the transition phase between the studio A&B and Golden Void. The screeching synth goes way over the top (recording-wise) and gets into distortion territory (which under normal circumstances I would hate), but that's part of the magic of this piece for some strange reason. It's the resolution, though, into the crunchy GV riff by Brock that is totally irresistable. An easy choice I suspect...

Jill, If it's any help, the Thistle web site (www.thistlehotels.co.uk) has 0800 18 17 16 as a UK reservations number for the Bloomsbury. I seem to recall that bloomsbury at thistlehotels.co.uk is the email address, but I can't confirm that on the site, so you should probably call anyway.

The way my mind had cataloged and processed info taken in regarding the finest psychedelic rock LP ever recorded in mankinds existence on this earth so far....is that around the time of "WARRIOR"......The record company (UA) was sued, and HAWKWIND were victorious, thus causing them to be blacklisted in the industry.......if true...maybe this is part of why they are so cool today and some of the LP's have been taken into deep space by alien snipers (well..) The truth really is however...that I am not capable of actually answering your question proper......... so I ramble on to say that as near as I can tell all the WARRIORS were released on UNITED ARTISTS label with the exception of we USA folks, who got ATCO.... So yeah! what exactly IS the deal here???? ADRIAN PARR?????? STARRATS???? MAJOR FANS????? Also I know that there is at least a record club edition from USA on RCA, which I will pay someone big bucks for if you can help replace my stolen copy????????? you have to look at the label to identify....it still says ATCO as well!!! can anyone say if WARRIOR ever got put out ANYWHERE besides USA on a differing label?????? furthermore I BEG YOU HARDCORE FANS WITH KNOWLEDE to tell me any details about existing PRESS KITS on this LP (Not CD PRESS KITS)..from ENGLAND and elsewhere....I am highly interested in this!!!!!!!...... EVEN MORE interesting IS....WHAT IS THE BRITISH WARRIOR OFFICIAL POSTER FROM U.A. record company, and will anyone sell me one or trade it for something??? does it have the 2 Warriors on it as I suspect??????????????????? And can't help to stick my neck way out and say that......since Dave Brock has been coronated (he has, you know)....it is my contention that he can put anything out on CD that he wants to when the mood so strikes him!!!!???? I have not much doubt that if you contact him at the height of the full moon, and ask him in your best humble approach to release what you want (I.E. HAWKLORDS, PXR5, ASTOUNDING, etc...) your wish may come with very swift wing......... And lastly.....it is my guess that the WARRIOR wasn't put out with the EMI releases on CD again, not only because of the label mystery weirdnesses, and the UK tape erosions/thefts/losses/oversights, that maybe Dave held back on that so as to let the magic of Rob Godwins special packaging shine a little longer..... I guess I would like A DIGIPAK version pretty soon....a mini LP CD cover wouldn't be bad would it......it still won't peel me off my vinyl though....but I'll buy multiples.........(with OPC, of course)(poor, poor mom) So Doug..(Pearson)...I am TRULY, VERY VERY VERY anxious to get the first copy of the career your going to start...........PURE ENERGY ......UNCLOUDED!!!!!!

Years ago I suggested to Doug Smith that this and the subseqquent BBC Radio One In Concert hour-long broadcast in '88 would be prime candidates for CD issue, but nothing ever happened and they fell into the same black hole of EBS as the Jack London CD and the Brock '76-'96 (both of which I ended up with advance tape copies and, no, they are not for copying - a condition of getting these things - but that's just to say the music did exist) and the reissue programme for the old ones, all of which actually were given EBS cat numbers too (and I've got the sheet to prove it) Andy Garibaldi. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nick Medford" To: Sent: Monday, December 11, 2000 2:39 PM Subject: Re: HW: finest moments > In message , > Steve Litchfield writes > >Here's a small survey I've wanted to do for a while. > > > >What's your single finest memory of recorded Hawkwind (live or studio)?

Cheers for that, Andy. That seems to be as good a time as any to say that the guest slot file and the combination discography I try to maintain have been worked over afresh to include everything this discussion has brought up of which I didn't previously know, and also to include (I think) a almost-complete entry for Lemmy (bloody tribute albums) and a fuller-but-almost-certainly-not complete one for Ginger Baker. What I _haven't_ yet done is included the pre-Hawkwind items in each person's history, though I have attempted to note their previous bands. Before I start handing out copies again though (assuming anyone wants them!) there are some questions I'd like to put to the list regarding things I can't solve: 1) The discography in the BOC-L archives lists several items under Del Dettmar as part of his Melodic Energy Commission period which their current Xaliman-run homepage doesn't admit to: these are _Synthesis_, _M=E/C^2_, and `Melody is Energy/Night Rhythm'; does anyone know if these are actually MEC works or Del solo or what? 2) the same source lists a Calvert appearance on an LP called _Mazin Ennet_ by a group called John Stevens Away. I can't find anything out about this and suspect that whatever it was it was probably Mother Gong's Bob Calvert on it rather than our one. This is a mistake which occurs elsewhere in that file too. Can anyone confirm or refute my suspicion? 4) on a comp. called, I think, _The Best of Lemmy_, there are two tracks by Lemmy and the Upsetters. One of them is a marvellous `Blue Suede Shoes', but I can't remember what the other is. Does anyone know, and can they tell me when these were recorded and whether they were issued elsewhere before that comp.? 6) The _Great Rock Discography_ has a full track-list and personnel for Pink Fairies _Out of the Blue and Into the Pink_ from 1995, but I can't find a trace of it elsewhere. On the other hand I have found a Twink Records comp of random 1974 - 1976 blues recordings by him and Mouse from Magic Muscle (?) called _Out of the Pink and into the Blues_, which seems to reference it. Or are they the same record? Has anyone seen the first one? 7) The Moor with Nik Turner, _Flux_ - is it out and if so when did it get so? Is it, out of interest, any good, and is it their material or the same old fifteen Hawkwind songs Nik plays with whatever backing band he can find? -- Jon Jarrett (01223 514989) jjarrett at chiark.greenend.org.uk ===================================================================== "There's nothin' more dangerous than a wounded mosquito."

I saw them live somewhere between 10 and 15 times- can't remember exactly, a protective veil has descended over my memory. I even went to a couple of the mini-festivals they used to hold on their farm in Suffolk. I would've been about 16. Even at that age I remember having my doubts- I remember RJG used to send out these communiqu?s to members of the fan club (which was called The Stand for some typically pretentious reason) and in one he opined "...I think at the moment of my birth, my heart must have been brushed by the wings of an archangel" which brought on abdominal cramps even then. Other letters to the fans were little more than pleas for cash, albeit couched in flowery language. The one thing for which I still think they deserve respect is that for a while they took on the music business and won- living on the farm with its own studio and financing the whole process of getting the records out and in the shops, all done on a shoestring. Around this time they came across as admirable English eccentric outsiders -they even used to print their own tabloid "The Enid"- logo stolen from The Sun- with scurrilous tales of evil- doing in the record industry. Still I won't attempt to defend the dreadful music they made in the 80s (although I really liked some of it at the time). -- Nick Medford From deltawave at METRONET.COM Mon Dec 11 23:43:31 2000 From: deltawave at METRONET.COM (Mike Coleman) Date: Mon, 11 Dec 2000 22:43:31 -0600 Subject: HW:---More Blah Blah In-Reply-To: <200012120326.WAA09950@listserv.spc.edu> Message-ID: >Synthesis was a Del solo tape after he had finished with Melodic Energy >Commission. >M=E/C^2 was a MEC album. >Melody Is Energy was an MEC track, so that w Night Rhythm must have been a >single. > >Jeff Forgive me........I'll do some private apologies to the likes of Larry, Andy(not Ande)..sorry I keep doing that, JD, etc..........SOON...........rather than keep public frothing I hope I am not actually seriously causing anyone anger with my frequency and personal gaga............ The "Night Rhythm" 45 mentioned below is really cool gatefold sleeve, and the tracks are superb, however if your looking for the HW connection, you'll be relieved to hear there is NO DELATRON, nor DEL...............Don Xaliman is presently gathering his energies and preparing to throw them at us.........I am excited, as recent plays found me discovering greater buried magic within the tunes......... 1) The discography in the BOC-L archives lists several items under Del Dettmar as part of his Melodic Energy Commission period which their current Xaliman-run homepage doesn't admit to: these are _Synthesis_, _M=E/C^2_, and `Melody is Energy/Night Rhythm'; does anyone know if these are actually MEC works or Del solo 2) the same source lists a Calvert appearance on an LP called _Mazin Ennet_ by a group called John Stevens Away. I can't find anything out about this and suspect that whatever it was it was probably Mother Gong's Bob Calvert on it rather than our one. This is a mistake which occurs elsewhere in that file too. Can anyone confirm or refute my suspicion? That DAMNED other Bob Calvert!!!!!!!!!!!! I love certain Gong releases, but the trouble that name has caused..........like driving CATAPILLA Lp's way up, because everyone insists it's the BOB??? it IS the other Bob isn't it?????? Not to mention comming home with the "Invisible Opera Company Of Tibet", looking at that gorgeous sleeve, all excited to trip with Calvert, and it sucked so bad It must have made me spit up Beer foam......(sorry Bob Lennon, fellow Allen Shamanic realizers.......) YUCK!!!!!!!! 4) on a comp. called, I think, _The Best of Lemmy_, there are two tracks by Lemmy and the Upsetters. One of them is a marvellous `Blue Suede Shoes', but I can't remember what the other is. Does anyone know, and can they tell me when these were recorded and whether they were issued elsewhere before that comp. The other track is "Paradise"....which, opinion on table, if anything IAN could smell of fish....this could....need strong brew and loudspeakers to compensate......"Blue Suede Ufoshoes" is a smoker, and sure inspires me to get some blinking footgear..........the tracks (I THINK) are both on a CD called the "Last Temptation Of Elvis" by Mick Green and the PIRATES....if anyone cares to blast me for improper info...do so....but sell me your copy....PLEASE!!!!??? 6) The _Great Rock Discography_ has a full track-list and personnel for Pink Fairies _Out of the Blue and Into the Pink_ from 1995, but I can't find a trace of it elsewhere. On the other hand I have found a Twink Records comp of random 1974 - 1976 blues recordings by him and Mouse from Magic Muscle (?) called _Out of the Pink and into the Blues_, which seems to reference it. Or are they the same record? Has anyone seen the first one? Can't help.... Hawkwind stole my lunch-money....it's time for a Larry Wallis fiXXX 7) The Moor with Nik Turner, _Flux_ - is it out and if so when did it get so? Is it, out of interest, any good, and is it their material or the same old fifteen Hawkwind songs Nik plays with whatever backing band he can find? The FLUX CD came out a couple years ago......the answer to the above is.....NIK is gonna get YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!! it's negative on that recycler.......I just dug it out and it is on "Bishop Garden" label...the tracks are...SUCK, BABY, BODY, STAY, BELL, SOON, TALK....can't recall which ones have "Mr. Thistle"...must get more beer soon........but it is a winner, as is the other release "Every Pixie sells a story"......cool band that DOES NOT SUCK!!!!!..........

In support of the band's 25th Anniversary album, "We Are Motorhead", the band played dates in Japan before travelling to the UK for their sell-out gig at Brixton Academy, and then left straight away for a lengthy European tour, taking in many places where their fans had not seen the band for many years including Russia, Poland, Lithuania, Belarussia, Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Norway. This resulted in the band playing 39 shows in 48 days, with a gruelling travel schedule between each show. Lemmy had a severe bout of influenza prior to the present tour, but perservered. A handful of European dates were cancelled, but after a few days rest Lemmy continued to play - against doctor's advice. "Doctors have been telling me for years and years to slow down," said Lemmy from his hospital bed in Italy. "How was I to know that this time they meant it? I carried on because I didn't want to let the fans down in the countries we were due to play... it now looks like I should have taken time out weeks ago to fully recover." Lemmy has been advised to take four weeks rest to ensure a full recovery. The Hawkwind Shop http://www.101cd.com/ogrp01.asp?artist=HAWKWIND&s=1151 --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

And at night I listened to voices drone With your dark conches pressed against my ears, And dreamt there were voices among the stars The priviledge of hearing was mine alone. With your earthed antenna divining air, You traced the future of your trans-sisters.

That was a kind offer and I'll enclose the list of Thistle Hotels I found on Yell.com I've only had a chance to phone Kensington Park and Bloomsbury but I don't honestly think the Thistle Hotels are going to be what's needed. Bloomsbury could only offer me single rooms at ? 106 (pounds) for the night and doubles at, I think, (since I've forgotten to bring the info with me!) at ?129 (pounds). These prices are way too high for most fans and I'm fairly sure prices for the other Thistle group hotels will be equally steep so I'm afraid that cheaper priced hotels will be needed and that'll take further investigation. I'll see what I can find out but I really don't have much time to spare for a long search. The good news is that neither place seemed to think that a block booking of 25 rooms or so would be a problem so there seems to be plenty of availability for that date. thanks! jill ================================================== Thistle Kensington Park Hotel De Vere Gardens Kensington London W8 5AF Business Type: HOTELS & INNS Tel: 020 7937 8080 Whites Thistle Hotel 90-92, Lancaster Gate London W2 3NR Business Type: HOTELS & INNS Tel: 020 7262 2711 Thistle Kensington Palace Hotel De Vere Gardens Kensington London W8 5AF Business Type: HOTELS & INNS Tel: 020 7937 8121 Royal Horseguards Thistle Hotel 2, Whitehall Court London SW1A 2EJ Business Type: HOTELS & INNS Tel: 020 7839 3400 The Thistle Tower Hotel St. Katharines Way London E1W 1LD Business Type: HOTELS & INNS Tel: 020 7481 2575 Thistle Bloomsbury Hotel Bloomsbury Way London WC1A 2SD Business Type: HOTELS & INNS Tel: 020 7242 5881 Cannizaro House Thistle Hotel & Restaurant West Side Wimbledon Common London SW19 4UE Business Type: HOTELS & INNS Tel: 020 8879 1464 The Grosvenor Thistle Hotel Buckingham Palace Rd London SW1W 0SJ Business Type: HOTELS & INNS Tel: 020 7834 9494 Thistle Hotels plc Capital House 25, Chapel St London NW1 5JJ Business Type: HOTELS & INNS Tel: 020 7723 8383 Thistle Westminster Hotel 49, Buckingham Palace Rd London SW1W 0QT Business Type: HOTELS & INNS Tel: 020 7834 1821 ----- Original Message ----- From: Merrick Martin French To: Sent: Tuesday, December 12, 2000 3:12 PM Subject: Re: HW: Party and hotel thing > Jill, > > If you give me a list I can help with the phoning. > > love, light and peace > > Merrick French, > From jill at THETA-ORIONIS.FREESERVE.CO.UK Tue Dec 12 17:36:17 2000 From: jill at THETA-ORIONIS.FREESERVE.CO.UK (Jill Strobridge) Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2000 22:36:17 -0000 Subject: HW: Party and hotel thing Message-ID: ----- Original Message ----- From: Arin Komins To: Sent: Monday, December 11, 2000 11:12 PM Subject: Re: HW: Party and hotel thing > On this theme, from prior con experience, hotels frequently want > a down payment on meeting space ;-( > > What kind of meeting space were we looking for? ...and for what dates? > Arin I'm not sure to be honest! It'll be for the evening of the 29th and I was assuming that one (maybe two) meeting rooms would be sufficient but I was just making vague enquiries to see what the responses were price and availability wise for accommodation. At any event since Thistle Hotels look as if they are going to be a tad pricey University Halls of Residence would be my next suggestion since it's still vacation and they might, or might not, have a social/recreational hall or meeting area nearby.

Travel Inns are good value and the rates are PER ROOM with each room able to sleep from 2-3 people I think. I made an initial enquiry with the London Euston Travel Inn Capital @ 1 Dukes Road,London,WC1. The rate per room is ?69.95....( or ?35 per person for 2 sharing!)....however they do not offer a discount on block bookings. They said that there should not be a problem booking around 25 rooms on the 29th, but could not confirm this because such a booking would have to be arranged with the manager during daytime hours. There is another Travel Inn @ London County Hall,Belvedere Road,SE1 (on the Thames near Waterloo Station). The rate per room is the same, although I think this location is a bit more special. I was unable to speak to anyone by phone at this one to verify if they could provide 25 rooms on the 29th. To find out more...check the web.......www.travelinn.co.uk Has anyone assumed the responsibility of organising this on behalf of HW and everyone? melvyn.

That may be my top pick. On the other hand, I rate Lemmy's solo in "Time We Left" on _Doremi_ as one of mankinds]'s finest achievements, musical or otherwise :) There are some bits of "Shouldn't Do That", the live version from Roadhawks/SR remaster that are quite good.

If this happens we will, for UK customers, make a herculean effort to despatch them so they make great Xmas pessies, but it's cutting it tight - for those who are desperate to know, then call me on 01382-776595 on Tuesday. Mr Young and Mr Freeman need not worry - their orders are secure. On behalf of the band and CD Services, thanks for waiting. Also heard from the Simon House people that the new CD should be ready in about a week but too late for us to get it to anyone for Xmas but it should be with you just after, OK. Great album, too - his best yet for me, as long as you like good synth music. Bedouin news is that in January Alan is taking the master tapes into a studio where Matthew Bainbridge will be doing his mixing bit while no less than Simon House records his parts for the album which will now be completely remixed to accommodate this new kid on the block!!! Simon will be on certain tracks. Believe me , that album was already just so much better than any of you would dare believe - it just got even greater. Expect a late Feb release and get those orders in after Xmas - you won't regret it.

In brief: it's bloomin' great. Far better than I dared hope having read all the lukewarm comments in the list archives. OK, I could live without another version of Brainstorm- although this one's perfectly creditable. And yes, Rizz is lame- although he doesn't piss me off like he does some folks round here. In any case the MUSIC on the Rizz tracks is generally excellent. HIYA may be the THIRD time they've wheeled out their cod-reggae track, but at least Ron's (surprisingly inventive) bass playing lends a bit of weight to the sound this time. And if you imagine 'Your Fantasy' as a free-festival shoutalong it suddenly makes perfect sense- it's not deep but it's FUN fer Gawd's sake. For me the album really gets going with Aerospaceage Inferno- superb version, great vocals from Ron who is impressive throughout. Never been convinced about him but his performances here are the best I've heard (or seen, come to that). I'd actually rate this higher than the Lockheed version (and as a major Calvert fan I don't say such things lightly). Then the studio tracks- well these are great: OK not many 'proper songs', but far more creative than many of their recent forays into instrumental electronica. One point worth making- this is definitely a 'Headphone Album', particularly the studio stuff. There's a lot going on that I didn't pick up before the trial by 'phones. 'I Am The Reptoid' is infinitely better than the original Distant Horizons track IMO: one of the weirdest, darkest things they've done for a very long time. The driving garage feel and raw-but-powerful vocals on 'Hippy' make it sound like a souped-up 90s version of the 13th Floor Elevators (a good thing, most definitely). A few weak points but overall this is a tremendous album, far superior to Distant Horizons, and the spaceship Hawkwind is in better condition than I feared (famous last words). I know lots of people will disagree with the above but I'm actually quite relieved to find that I like it so much, so wanted to share my joy.

But my brother is a fan and I have to say in their defence that everything they've done since then has been a lot better, including some stuff taht's actually good. However, if Woronzow's Lucky Bishops would learn the tactical use of The Riff the same way Supergrass did they would be a very large sight better.

I didn't agree then and at 43 yrs old now I still don't agree. Listening to bands like Hawkwind drugs are good but they aren't necessary. Where drugs are DEFINITELY NEEDED is when you have to hear the dirge that Top 40 radio and the Peter Pan music that shopping malls play ... you need those drugs to stop yourself from thottling someone ... sorry I didn't mean someone I meant one of the sheep that happily listens day in and day out to the same old crap that radio, tv ads, shopping mall music etc pumps out. For one day I would love to have the job of selecting the music that gets piped over the system in supermarkets and shopping malls. Wonder how shoppers would react to say Tim Blake or Pete Namlook being played. You would think the people in charge of selecting the music for shoppers to hear would have realised by now if you play people something meaningful they will shop longer.

I'm not editor, writer or even owner of newworldsmagazine.com. I am the lead engineer on this project. Mr. Michael Moorcock is the owner of the web site. I will be doing for New Worlds what I've been doing for multiverse.org, simply supply a site that contains as much information as I am capable of stuffing into it. I don't dare claim that I can or will provide all information possible. I believe that New Worlds Magazine will be a great resource for fans, writers, publishers and editors alike. The current version of newworldsmagazine.com is simply an extract of what was within multiverse.org. But I imagine that it will grow beyond multiverse.org's current size and usefulness. Where multiverse.org is a window for fans into Mr. Moorcock's world and Mr. Moorcock into the fans' world, so may newworldsmagazine.com be for other writers and their fans. The scope is greater than multiverse.org's and the tasks ahead will be slow in coming as it has for multiverse.org. multiverse.org has been a wonderful and terrible test of what can be done and what should not happen. Things that are: * a paper on the history of New Worlds * a paper on the current state of New Worlds * the original introduction to THE NEW WORLDS ANTHOLOGY written by Michael Moorcock * a white and black design to the interface - I will strive to keep it clean and free of clutter - easy to read Things to be: * scans of the original magazines including covers, artwork, document extracts * fan/author interfaces such as forums and Q&As for participants * author/editor/publisher interface for conducting limited document exchanging * a sorting/searching feature * an ezine I hereby declare my right to do none of the above.

A special note to my friends and Michael's fans in Europe: You folks contribute to no less than 25% of all traffic to multiverse.org compared to the 25% the United States contributes. This is a key consideration in this sites layout and design. Fancy formatting of pages, i.e. heavy usage of tables, big gaudy graphics, javascript rollovers and other layout conventions, will be avoided. Since dialups in Europe are costly and time is of the essence, I will strive to make this site as easy to download as I possibly can. I will also make pages printable so you can print and disconnect. The layout will remain spartan.

I think shopping mall music has to be vanilla in order to *not be an irritant* to the greatest number of people. Play something complicated and people may get bothered and leave. The best Muzak should let you know it's there, but you shouldn't be able to remember what song was playing when you leave the store. If you did, it was distracting you from concentrating on the merchandise. I think a lot of people who listen to Top 40 constantly do so because they don't think about music. They don't actively listen, nor do they want to- it's not their bag. To them, music's just there. Or it has a nice beat that perks me up. Or, "I can dance to it with no difficulty." And the people who do actively listen appreciate different aspects of the music. There's people to whom sound quality and the mix are more important than the music itself, people who only like the R&B style of singing, people who love singing in general and could care less about the instrumentation. Hey, *somebody* likes every band that ever was. Even Hawkwind and BOC. But play it in the mall, and watch the place clear out. ;-) Brian -- Brian Halligan mailto:blackblade at bhalligan.com http://www.bhalligan.com From DDUCTOR at NEUUS.JNJ.COM Thu Dec 14 11:19:50 2000 From: DDUCTOR at NEUUS.JNJ.COM (Ductor, Dan [NEUUS]) Date: Thu, 14 Dec 2000 11:19:50 -0500 Subject: HW: finest moments Message-ID: I totally agree with Doug.

ObCD: Cro-Mags - Alpha Omega From SLOTERDIJK at WEBTV.NET Thu Dec 14 12:16:40 2000 From: SLOTERDIJK at WEBTV.NET (SLOTERDIJK) Date: Thu, 14 Dec 2000 12:16:40 -0500 Subject: Seasonal message which is not limited to this season Message-ID: Hello everyone, Although I tend not to be one who imbibes overimportance to holidays, or any other "arbitrary calendar dates", I feel compelled, through recent events in my life to offer some thoughts, thanks, and assertions with regard to myself, SLOTERDIJK and human behavior in general. This note may be titled "seasonal message", but in effect it could be read with equal relevence at any time in anyone's life. Recently I endured a very powerful and unsteady few weeks, in which my future might have been willingly altered. As one who shuns the employment of dramatics and melodrama in life, especially in personal relationships. I found myself completely thrown off by someone from my distant past who contacted and misled me. My initial joy soon sank into sadness, disappointment, and finally indifference, all this despite my proclaimed "groundedness". Without delving too deeply into this, I found myself confronted by motifs of the holiday season, feelings of longing etc. Before long, my balance was thrown completely off, and although all this is now begnning to fade away, I was left with some very powerful impressions about human nature, the meaning of the verb. "to love", my own self etc. During this time I found myself juxtaposing my life against the lives of others, and eventually entered a period of self validation. Now with our show coming up tomorrow, and a growing feeling of renewal and rest, it is time I offerd some thanks..Don't misunderstand here, Burro is not becomig a sentimental sap, but is merely stating things. I discovered about 2 weeks ago, that my heart is beating approximately 79,200 beats in a 24 hour period, at an average of 55 beats per minute. Now although I am a reincarnationist, I acknowledge the finality of this body and set of life memories. I consider the body to be something which I steward over, as "I" am not this body. Nonetheless, I embrace the body and it's life memories as my own. Having said all this, I have realized that there just isn't enough time for "me" left on this planet to be caught in other people's interpersonal struggles, or to be swept away by them. I am a compassionate person who does not feel the emotion of hatred for anything or anything, and who rarely uses that word in my vocabulary. Nonetheless, I am a human being with real emotion.. So what is all this about, and what am I trying to say? Well on a superficial level I want to wish everone a happy "Holiday Season", but on a more realistic level I want to acknowlege that I realize that this "season" is really not so happy for many people. I extend myself to the happy and the not so happy equally, as "the season" is merely an arbitrary calendar date, frocked with motifs, and "prescribed reactions". I have known both the happiness and the unappiness and I do not dichotomize them, as it's "All One". I want to thank everyone who has had anything to do with SLOTERDIJK in any capacity over the last 1.5 years; from the occaisional e-mail questions, to the invitations to play, and everything in between. I want to pledge to each and all of you, that in 2001 and before, beginning with tomorrow night's show in Philadelphia, I will be rededicating my efforts, determination, and drive to succeed to you. It has become apparent that SLOTERDIJK and I are not really seperate entities anymore, but rather one in the same. One with all else. My personal and artistic identity is now very much one with Sloterdijk, and so for this reason I feel compelled to tell you all that as Sloterdijk, I will coninue to strive to offer the best that I can to all of you who have shown such kindness and consideration. Tomorrow night's performance shall be dedicated to all of you..Cheers, and Best wishes to all., Peace, Mike Burro (Sloterdijk) http://community.webtv.net/SLOTERDIJK/SLOTERDIJKControl From Bernhard.Pospiech at DSM-GROUP.COM Thu Dec 14 12:17:13 2000 From: Bernhard.Pospiech at DSM-GROUP.COM (Pospiech, Bernhard) Date: Thu, 14 Dec 2000 18:17:13 +0100 Subject: AW: HW: finest moments Message-ID: - TREADMILL in Minneapolis, 04.10.1989 - SECRET AGENT in Reading, 19.05.1992 - SPIRIT OF THE AGE in Brixton, 21.10.2000 - SPIRIT OF THE AGE in Plymouth, 23.11.1978 - SHOT DOWN IN THE NIGHT in London, 22.04.1988 - MOTORWAY CITY in Birmingham, 04.12.1988 - STAR SONG in Washington, 02.12.1990 and.... !!!!!

It wasn't too expensive (about ?150- say $250- when I got it earlier this year) but it's superb. The thing that puts some people off Rega turntables is that various things have to be done manually e.g. changing the belt drive (rather than just flicking a switch) if you want to play a 45rpm record. But this is all very easy, and not having to pay for the extra electrical innards means you get a remarkably low price for the quality. It was a happy day when I was finally able to get all the old vinyl out and hear it as it should be heard. Gave the wife a shock when I brought roughly 800 albums down to the living room- she had occasionally noticed them in the store cupboard but I don't think she realised that one day they would emerge and take over the flat. Another point to consider is that due to the decline in demand for vinyl, some amps don't have a particularly good phono stage (indeed some don't have one at all). So before you commit yourself, worth getting some advice on how your new turntable will get on with your amp, or better still a home trial.

I bought a Dual CS-505-II turntable in the mid/late 80's. It runs like a champ, and sounds great (at least it did last I used it, which was several years ago now, as it is in ol' Blighty and I'm in the US). I don't know if Dual are still on the go, but I wholeheartedly recommend that turntable as a great sounding unit for its price (which was ~100 quid, I seem to recall)... Cheers, Paul.

Habiby) Date: Thu, 14 Dec 2000 15:36:58 -0500 Subject: OFF: Vinyl Message-ID: Personally I recommend searching garage sales. You can get some pretty good deals, turntables that originally cost 100's for very little scratch. Once you drop 50 to 75 on the replacement cartridge (that is the key to good sound isn't it?) Well maybe 25 to 35, you should have a very good piece of equipment. Look for: A platter that you can remove. How heavy is it? How solid does the equipment feel? Is it belt driven or magnetic driven? Belt is good. Mags better cause you don't have to replace the belt. I have both. I have a Concept (CBS of all things) which I bought in .. get this 1980! IT is in perfect working condition. 2lb platter. Mag drive. I also have a Sony and a Techniques. Now lots of people slag Technique but I have had NO problems with it. Well that is my two cents. I'd pick up old copies of Consumer's Digest to evaluate the older stuff. Online reviews if you want to go new.

The Royal National (thanks, Arin): http://www.hotels-london.co.uk/budgethotels/royalnational/index.html Perhaps you'd already ruled this one out for some reason, but in case not: their standard rate is ?65 single, ?82 double or twin, ?99 triple; and they do mention "Conference and Banqueting Facilities". Just off Russell Sq, so a short walk to the venue. Also the Fielding: http://www.hotels-london.co.uk/budgethotels/royalnational/index.html A bit pricier (?76 single, ?100 double or twin), a bit farther away (in Covent Garden -- looks like about 4 knuckles on my map :-) which would be about 2 miles), and no mention of meeting rooms. The page these came from, http://www.hotels-london.co.uk/budgethotels, also lists a bunch in the Paddington/Hyde Park/Marylebone/Oxford Street area, not to mention Bayswater/Kensington Gardens/Notting Hill/Portobello Road. But these latter -- though imbued with some nostalgia, especially for the band (grin) -- are getting a little far from Charing Cross Road). If needed, I'll go through these on the weekend looking for candidates to call. PS: How the $*@~! do you say "Marylebone", anyway? (It's England, so either the "y" or the "e"'s gotta be silent ... but which one?)

Another frequent encore was a raucous version of Wild Thing, with Godfrey camping it up outrageously and proving that he did possess a sense of humour.

Their connection with Conflict was one of the more improbable associations, although a smattering of hardcore punks would often show up at Enid gigs and seemed to greatly enjoy the fey neo-classicism on offer. Anarcho-punks Crass (closely linked to Conflict) also lived on a farm and tried to maintain a completely autonomous existence, so there was a parallel with the Enid there, making the connection a litle less mind-boggling perhaps. I'm pretty sure RJG would not have been sympathetic to their politics though- I once saw him engaged in an animated discussion in the Marquee bar, exclaiming "you can't have a society of anarchists!"

There was a story in the comics this week about a guy in a nursing home who wanted to get his telegram from the Queen when he was 100. They had a big party organised in the home for him. In the morning, they brought him the post in bed. He read his telegram, said "I made it", and died right then. I don't think there's much doubt that people can hang on if they're determined enough.

Yeah, but they'll stay longer yet if what's on is familiar and unchallenging, sadly. And since most people aren't into Tim Blake, but chart pap, that's what'll make the muzak.

Courtesy of Rob 'Midnite Sun' Jacobs... Hi, everyone. I just noticed Simon House is scheduled to be an in studio guest at "TotalRock.com" tomorrow (or today depending on which part of the planet you call home). Here is their announcement verbatim: "Simon House of Hawkwind will be wafting into the TotalRock studios on Saturday, December 16, as the special guest on Skull and Doom's show from 6pm to midnight. Simon will not only be talking about his extensive Hawkwind experiences, but also about his other projects. Crazy Canadian genius Devin Townsend will also be joining the fun." Time is based on GMT, so I think that would be 10am - 4pm here in Los Angeles, USA. Sounds like it might be worth a listen. I have no idea who Devin Townsend is, however.

We touched upon the subject of Lemmy/Motorhead & HW. He said that he'd heard that Lemmy had been advised by a doctor to rest for a month due to a hitherto unknown health problem.We joked that the 'bottle of Jack Daniels a day' habit may in some way be symptomatic of this. But nobody knows any more on this subject at present. I don't know about the rest of you out there, but when I looked at the pics of him at the Hawkestra gig, I couldn't help thinking he looked unwell...but I assumed he was probably suffering from a bout of jet lag. melvyn From andygee at DIAL.PIPEX.COM Fri Dec 15 17:54:04 2000 From: andygee at DIAL.PIPEX.COM (ANDREW GARIBALDI) Date: Fri, 15 Dec 2000 22:54:04 -0000 Subject: OFF: Mahavishnu Project (was Re: OFF: Vinyl) Message-ID: 'Lost Trident Sessions' is a gem - it's the legenadary studio album that should have followed 'Birds Of Fire' but then either the band or the label (forget which) vetoed it and the live one came out instead.

Personally, I'd love to see a collective of studio bound musicians doing an album of old material - sounds a retro step possibly, but with all this reunion thing and the increasingly less likely possibility of the Reuinon live album coming out in its entirety, that would be the full stop to the whole thing - oh and a tour that comes to Scotland please. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Doug Pearson" To: Sent: Friday, December 15, 2000 2:14 AM Subject: Re: OFF: Crohinga Well > On Fri, 15 Dec 2000 00:44:46 +0000, Carl Edlund Anderson > wrote: > >At 16.10 -0800 13.12.2000, Doug Pearson wrote: > >>Just thought I'd toss out a "nice job" to sometimes boc-l members Scott > >>Heller and Carl Anderson who conducted interviews with On Trial and Tangle > >>Edge in the latest issue of the very cool Belgain psych/space/prog/etc zine > >>'Crohinga Well'. > > > >I heard from Scott that this came out at last (I only participated a > >bit in the Tangle Edge interview).

Message-ID: For those who never heard the story, I was contacted by a local indepenedent supermarket in late '99 following an article on my Dead Earnest label in Classic Rock magazine, and the result was that they played the music of Spacehead, Krel, Mooch and Doug Snyder over the supermarket PA system for a week, and we had Krel actually playing a near three hour set inside the supermarket. As a result of this we got invited to do a similar one-off in England, at the enormous Sainsburys in Stafford, where we had videos set up around the store showing videos of Mooch, Doug Snyder and Nash The Slash, while Krel played for over three hours just oustide the place, and we raised a load of money for the Siansburys Charity Of The Month and got some neat advance local publicity. Now we're waiting for someone somewhere else to invite us but it can't be England or Scotland - we only do one-off's. The supermarket tour will continue.....Macey's New York perhaps, Sainsburys, Rhyl perhaps, FNAC, Paris maybe...depends who's willing to fund it all.

That would be Francis Lickerish, who left in about 1980. All Enid music that was any good was produced while he was in the band. Have no idea what he's doing now, or even if he still makes music. Last I heard (about 12 years ago mind you) he was living in some remote part of Ireland. He did return to guest with the band at their Dominion Theatre "farewell" gigs (see earlier in thread) in '88 or whenever it was. -- Nick Medford From erics at TELEPRES.COM Sat Dec 16 07:46:05 2000 From: erics at TELEPRES.COM (Eric Siegerman) Date: Sat, 16 Dec 2000 07:46:05 -0500 Subject: HW: london In-Reply-To: ; from akomins@MIDWAY.UCHICAGO.EDU on Fri, Dec 15, 2000 at 07:57:36PM -0600 Message-ID: On Fri, Dec 15, 2000 at 07:57:36PM -0600, Arin Komins wrote: > Is anyone else doing the touristy thing in london around the astoria gig?

Message-ID: Hi, This is going to be a really pointless question, which I don't envisage anyone having the definitive answer to, but ...... You know the sirens and explosions "between" Spirit and Damnation on Quark? Well, from the very first time I heard it over 20 years ago, I've always assumed that it is actually the start of Damnation as opposed to the end of Spirit. Numerous compilations have tagged it onto the end of Spirit, which I've always assumed is a fair mistake. However, for some reason I dug out Repeat Performance vinyl yesterday (the Charisma compilation from about 1980), and was surprised that they had done the same. Now I'm starting to think that if the original label has it as being the end of Spirit just 3 years after its original release, then maybe I've been the one getting it wrong all along. The sirens seem more in keeping with Damnation, but I think there is also Morse code included which kinda swings it for Spirit. Maybe it was purposely done to link the two songs with a bit from each, but I just find it curious that more often than not it is tagged onto Spirit than Damnation. Just out of curiousity really (as I say, totally pointless), but, which song do folks think it is part of, and why? Jez -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Message-ID: One would imagine, listening to it again, that it was done as a convenient bridge between the two tracks, rather than belonging to one or the other. That way the whole of side 1 runs as one continuous piece. It was probably down to the cutting engineer who actually put the original break after the sirens at the start of the guitar riff of Damnation Alley. Incidently, the morse code in Spirit sends the repeated message 'SOS'. And talking of engineers, does anyone else find that everything cut by Malcolm 'Porky' Peckham sounds OTT? Even with a top flight pick-up cartridge, some of those Flicknife grooves are virtually untrackable without distortion.

How about a collective of musicians doing an album of _new_ material. I mean, let's face it, what are the chances of them recording a version of "Born to Go" that's better on _SR_? I mean, I'd be impressed, but I'm not holding my breath waiting. But when the _try_, and when the have the right people, that mysterious entity known as Hawkwind _can_ turn out new music that's as good as anything they've done. I'd rather hear new songs that looked to the sound of the past (or, alternatively, the sound of the _present_ "stoner" rock scene) than the sound of the present (which can be dodgy) looking to old songs. Even if he falls over now and then, Lemmy still proves that you can make music when your 50 that is just as good and uncompromising in its principles as the music you made when you were 20. Motorhead does not need to record a studio album of songs the first made 25 years ago because, well, the new songs are really good. Hawkwind should be able to manage that much. They have, after all, a much larger pool of potential collaborators to choose from ;) Cheers, Carl ObCD: Five Fifteen, _Psychedelic Singalongs for Stadiums_. -- Carl Edlund Anderson mailto:carlaz at ntlworld.com From Tigger at PUDDYTAT.FSNET.CO.UK Sun Dec 17 08:44:44 2000 From: Tigger at PUDDYTAT.FSNET.CO.UK (Tigger) Date: Sun, 17 Dec 2000 13:44:44 +0000 Subject: HW: SpaceBrock question In-Reply-To: Message-ID: In article , Nick Medford writes >In message <003701c0682a$fafd6700$1844a8c2 at xpnwjjkf>, Nick Lee > writes >>Looking at the the tracklist for SpaceBrock (which actually matches the >>tracks on the disc!) the opener 'Life Form' is listed as being from the film >>'Any Given Sunday'.

Some of the remakes are worth it - I thought the Electric Tepee version of Mirror of Illusion was better than the original - what's worse is when they just change the name of a track so it looks like something you haven't got yet. I've lost count of the times I've seen that. I had a look on the Voiceprint website, it says the Weird tapes have been reissued on CD with bonus tracks. The only differences I can see are that yet again some of the tracks have had a name change. -- David Blair From kevin.perry at VIRGIN.NET Sun Dec 17 08:53:34 2000 From: kevin.perry at VIRGIN.NET (Kevin Perry) Date: Sun, 17 Dec 2000 13:53:34 -0000 Subject: OT: ROCK LONDON radio station Message-ID: One of my tracks (Tatiana Freeway) got selected for http://stations.mp3s.com/stations/27/rock_london.html and when I went to have a look at the page, I found an LLG track alongside it - how to make someone's Sunday :-) --- Kevin Perry Sonic Energy Authority http://www.mountaingrill.co.uk/ "It is the business of the future to be dangerous; and it is among the merits of science that it equips the future for its duties."

I am pleased to offer you availability for the Quality Hotel Westminster, arriving 28th December 2000 for 03 nights, 25 rooms for 35 guests. For this I can offer a rate per room per night including VAT of ?35.00, all meals being charged for as taken. Ms Komins, I have provisionally reserved the rooms for you until the 20th December 2000 and look forward to hearing from you again soon. With kind regards Phil Taylor Travel Trade Sales Manager ================================================== I've just called up the web page which was UNBELIEVABLY SLOW. However after an hour of dithering around the hotel is the "Quality Hotel Eccleston, Westminster, London " 82-83 Eccleston Square, London, SW1V 1PS. Tel: 0207 834 8042 Fax 0207 630 8942 email admin at gb614.u-net.com Situated near to Victoria station it's reasonably central and has plenty of amenities including banquet/meeting rooms. I've just phoned to enquire about prices and can confirm that there is a special promotional deal in the period including 29th including continental breakfast for a double room. This is an excellent price!! Single rooms might be more expensive (the usual rate for a single room there is ?85) but if that is going to be the case then I guess anyone wanting a single just books a double room All rooms (except for some of the singles are en-suite). I'm going to phone back on Monday and re-check the details but if they really are true then I think I'm going confirm my booking here asap. The only other suggestion I could offer was the City Hotel, 12 Osborn Street, London E1 Tel: 020 7247 3313 and I think you need to book through an Agency www.hotels-london.co.uk to get the cheaper rates which are ?75 for a single and ?87 for a double/twin (and a weekend would be even cheaper). Executive triple and quad rooms are also available (I think Executive means they have proper beds (not bunk beds) and all amenities) for ?105 and ?118 and there are conference facilities available.

Nah, I can't agree at all... I prefer that Hawkwind not become some backwards-yearning band forever rehashing their past. I think NEW Hawkwind material has always been the strength of the band. Hawkwind still continue to write really great new stuff all the time which I think is just as good as the early stuff. I think any movement toward a "greatest hits" mentality would be a move in the wrong direction! This is a hip, current band that is strongest at reconstituting itself and pulling out new sounds and new songs all the time!

I agree that some of the more recent revamps have been worthwhile- Mask Of The Morning for example- but what we want is strong NEW material. This is certainly not beyond the band- I think their best 90s output transcends most of their 80s work- and they have the knack of pulling great albums out of the bag just when you think they might be drying up. The fact that they are apparently on better terms with some ex- members should be used (if at all) to help create new work, not trade on past glories. There are any number of bands who flog their old classics to death while failing to produce any worthwhile new material: Hawkwind have never allowed this to happen, there've been times when it's looked imminent, but they've always come up with something fresh, and long may that continue. In any event, if you want to hear reworkings of old material, there are any number of live albums full of that kind of thing. A studio album of this kind would be superfluous, no? -- Nick Medford From denis.regenbrecht at UNIBW-MUENCHEN.DE Sun Dec 17 17:36:03 2000 From: denis.regenbrecht at UNIBW-MUENCHEN.DE (Denis Regenbrecht) Date: Sun, 17 Dec 2000 23:36:03 +0100 Subject: Hawkwind London rooms In-Reply-To: Message-ID: Hi, thanx Arin for organizing this whole hotel-business! >What days does everyone need space for? and what do we need by way of >meeting space? 2 nights for me - 28/29 and 29/30.

To this Canadian, it could be interpreted as, "you have to pay for meals when you eat them; we won't add them to your room's bill".

Or is that the sound of electric violin maltreatment? The mid-section of "Robot" is definitely processed electric violin (listen to the runs down the fingerboard - you won't get THAT sound with even the best synth portamento). Probably through (at least) a wah pedal. One of the fun things about listening to the different live versions (since there's no studio version) of the song is to see how quickly Simon switches from keyboards (verses/choruses) to violin (mid-section solo) and back to keyboards ... he doesn't leave very much "dead air" in ANY version! >One of my Finest Moments, either way.

Unfortunately the technology was flawed because the laser tracked the whole groove - including all the crud at the bottom. A diamond stylus actually only tracks the groove walls, being much larger than the bottom of the pit, so is prone to less noise. Maybe they've found a way to do this with a laser now, though I have to say a good old fashioned turntable with a good arm and cartridge still does the business, for me at least.

The rates have been quoted on the basis of a group booking and reservations will therefore need to come through me, once you have all the details of dates, duration and rooms required. I am pleased to offer the same rate for those guests that require shorter stays and whilst we do currently have some availability (limited) for those that wish to extend their stay to include New Years Eve there will be an increased charge for the 31st December 2000, which will be ?50.00 per room per night, room only. I have also checked with the hotel regarding availability of a meeting room for the 29th & 30th and have available the Surrey room. This is chargeable at a half day rate of ?100.00. Arin, I hope this gives you all the information that you require, but do please contact me again should you need any further help or information. In the meantime please accept my thanks once again for your interest in Choice Hotels. I look forward to hearing from you again.

There may be an overlap of 4 or 5 UK people but they will be notified immediately if we find that is the case. Finally, if anyone wants the reissued expanded remastered copy of Five Fifteen's '6 Dimensions Of the electric camembert' CD album with 'Silver Machine' on it and now boasting an exclusive live track featuring Nik Turner, it's in stock now, as are our last two pre-Xmas copies of the 'Chronicle' DVD on NTSC format for all our American readers.No sign of Simon House album on CD and vinyl but should be any day. After that it's the live Dark Sun Hawkwind covers CD, then rolling down to the two Alan Davey albums and who knows after that (well, I know something but I can't say yet). By the way, on the posters for the concert, the Nik Turner band is now 'The Hawkwind 1970 Isle Of Wight Reunion Band' - wonder how much longer that one can get. Only Nik..............

This seems about right. On the assumption that the hotel has conference facilities can we ask them to supply us with audio-visual equipment - maybe a video player (and a CD player perhaps) and a TV screen? Then if people could bring along some of their favourite Hawkwind videos and a few CDs I reckon those of us who don't get a invite to the private party at the club (and there may be a few of us!) could pass the time quite happily after the Astoria gig. And if Hawkwind are staying at the same hotel I guess we could perhaps have some visitors in the early hours! As long as the hotel is happy with the fact that there could be a fair amount of music and general noise in the "after midnight" hours. > For refreshments, if we do get the room, and I don't manage to figure out > a hotel bar setup (and if the hotel will let us do our own refreshments) > then I may need help doing all of that (since I'm carless, and clueless on > where to go to acquire stuff ;-) ).

Something like that. It'd also be good if the hotel could set up a VCR, TV, amp and speakers so that we can bring videos and CD's. If the hotel can't do that then maybe the band could bring something along? > For refreshments, if we do get the room, and I don't manage to figure out > a hotel bar setup (and if the hotel will let us do our own refreshments) > then I may need help doing all of that (since I'm carless, and clueless on > where to go to acquire stuff ;-) ).

If the hotel won't organise supplies though then we'd be best to simply bring our own on an individual basis.

Well, I know you might think this is strange, based on the bulk of my musical tastes (which I consistently force upon you poor people), but 10,000 Maniacs have (at times) been one of my favorites (at other times, been rather pathetic). And founding member/guitarist Rob Buck died yesterday of liver failure, which is a sad thing, since he was I believe the true reason that they were appealing to me (and probably many others who never realized it). And if you had ever seen them in concert during the period(s) where the show wasn't all about Natalie Merchant, you would have recognized that Buck was a psychedelic rocker at heart, buried in a liberal-propaganda-spouting-folk-pop-rock band. I've been to enough 10KM concerts (oh, about 13 or so, freebies the last couple of years) to see the blank stares of people who can't fathom what the hell Buck's playing when they pull out 1982-era tracks like 'My Mother the War' and 'Planned Obsolescence' and he turns on a whole host of effects and lets it fly. The Spinal Tap-air force base scenario come to life. The children cover their ears and run. Anyway, 10KM existed for about 18 or 19 years, although were only highly visible for about 3 years (when they were at their worst...like that MTV Unplugged show...what garbage), and began as a weird mixture of folk, punk, reggae, calypso?, who knows what else...then morphed into a quirky folk-pop outfit, went horrifically political, thankfully lost Natalie (whose voice/singing style in the early days was something special IMHO) to a miserable (though surprisingly popular) solo career, and then flattened out into 'has been' territory. The new albums (with Mary Ramsey) were rather worthless (pleasant though empty), however their recent concerts (when Buck was on-stage) were still full of 15-20 year old gems that Natalie had obviously vetoed in her final years with the band. Sorry for that bit of way-off-topic rhetoric...I just wanted to publicly announce that we had lost one of 'our own', even though I don't think most people would have ever thought so. I hope the band decides to call it a day. I doubt it though. Grakkl (FAA) ObCD: 10,000 Maniacs - Hope Chest ObDrinkCoaster: 10,000 Maniacs - Blind Man's Zoo P.S. I like Talking Heads and the Police too (see recent Sting-HW thread), and early 10,000 Maniacs were kinda similar, so it's not that weird! Roxy Music also.

Get back to the sci-fi themes, avoid pure "hard rock" songs, . Get a real good and well known designer for the cover. Never again those Club Ninja or Heaven Forbid type of crap. Why not Moebius - remember Heavy-Metal? The style of Meobius is so well in sync with BOC. Remeber FOUO and CE. And make some nois about it. . Get somebody famous to co-write one or more songs like they did with Patti Smith at that time. And let the world know. Flame off - why not a collaboration with rappers - Fat Boy Slim?, or Mirwais (the one who wrote Madonna songs) - , or AC/DC, or Metallica, Springsteen, Red Hot Chili Peppers, or a well know classical orcherstra - Flame on. . Organise a worldwide tour and advertise it. Last time they came to France was without any advertising, in a very small venue, and no press coverage. . Why not organise a "monsters of rock" type of tour. Remember Reading in the lat 70s with Black Sabbath. Why not a revival of the black and blue tour? . Why not a cover of some well know rock classic song? . Try hard to have on song as the main song of the next big sci-fi movie or as the theme of a new video game. . Why not the come back of the Bouchards and make an "original lineup" tour? . Politicize again the songs, for example anti-nazi songs, that would contrast with BE252 or Celine type of songs, or against the liberal globalisation (remeber Seattle?)... . ... Some may look simplistic and naive, but I love BOC for so long and I am so frustrated. I'd like them to be recognised for what they were, what they still are and what thy could be.

Don't expect more than an hour- and-a-half gig. No alcohol! At least not in the Turning Stone. Maybe different out west. High cost. The turning Stone charges from 25 to fifty bucks for acts. I think they charged 35 bucks for BOC last time they played there! the plus side? Cabaret-style seating. Nice, comfortable chairs seated at a table in a small room. Intimate setting probably means a good view of the action... your mileage may vary--maybe this casino is nothing like the Turning Stone... theo From xl5 at IINET.NET.AU Thu Dec 21 10:19:22 2000 From: xl5 at IINET.NET.AU (William Duffy) Date: Thu, 21 Dec 2000 23:19:22 +0800 Subject: HW:Finest Moments Message-ID: Same here!

I think you may be thinking of the Hippodrome. That`s right next to Leciester Square. It`s a bit of a walk from Charing Cross to the Astoria. The Astoria is right on top (almost literally) of Tottenham Court Road Tube station. That would be the one to aim for by train as it`s literally 30 seconds from the tube exit. And Tottenham Court Road is on the Northern line which is useful for connections.

All tickets already purchased are valid for the new dates, or they can be returned to the point of purchase for refunds.

Well, you can say everything but from my point of view I don't see anything bad in it. It is bootleg so quality is not good. I'd like to have this recording 'cause I love Hawkwind concerts but I can't travel to UK for just a concert. It's too expensive to do it here, in Russia. Where the average month salary is about $200. But how can I listen to unedited, full length famous Hawkwind concert if there's no bootlegs? I have more than 70 Hawkwind and related cds so you can't blame that I'm a bad Hawkwind fan. So if anyone can send me tape or cd-r of some great Hawkwind concerts which never were released I would be happy... best regards, Alissa From coral at APORT.RU Tue Dec 26 09:27:49 2000 From: coral at APORT.RU (Alissa) Date: Tue, 26 Dec 2000 17:27:49 +0300 Subject: HW: a question for Dave Brock Message-ID: Hello!

It just sends a shiver down my spine when somebody makes even a penny on bootlegs. ( surely not in the spirit of the whole idea ). I trade quite often have, even done B+P for people when time allows, It wouldn't even enter my head to sell a cdr ( wouldn't that piss the band anyway and ruin it for everyone ) I did complain to e-bay using the below links, I realise the auction has been and done but I feel quite strongly about it ( we brits are supposed to be good at complaining) I just hate the idea of selling cdrs. I'm not trying to deprive any hawkfan of their fix of the good stuff, hell no, If no-one can trade for it a few B+P's might be in the offing, time allowing. mail me off list please. peter ----- Original Message ----- From: To: Sent: Tuesday, December 26, 2000 2:04 PM Subject: Re: HW: Look at E-Bay :-((( > >Hi Bernhard ( Merry Xmas ) > > > >The only way I can find of complaining is through this link: > > > >http://pages.ebay.com/help/basics/select-RS.html > > > >and following 2 more links. > > > >Have you got the page URL there, I still can't find it > > > >The other thing one of the erpnoters did was offer the bidders a copy of the > >show for B+P, thus removing any income the turd would make. > > > >peter > > Ah, so someone here might give me a chance to get hold of a 3 CD set of this > great gig then?

Generally, e-mail safeharbor at ebay.com to report infringing auctions. However, they will generally e-mail you back telling you that the copyright holder needs to request to have the item removed. If Hawkwind object to people selling boots of their material on eBay, they need to register with eBay through the programme they have for fast-track removal of infringing auctions. The notable exception to this is if the seller breaches eBay's written listing policies. For example, eBay will not let you sell audio CD-Rs on eBay, even if you are the copyright holder. So, if the seller mentions CD-R in the item description, you can get eBay to yank the auction because it directly violates their acceptable items policy. I have to say, $13 for three CD-Rs is not bad at all. Not like some of the crazy auctions you see for bootleg concerts. On the Gov't Mule list, one way people have undermined bootleggers selling on eBay is to e-mail the bidders during the auction and offer to B&P the show for them. Also, somewhat humourously, Phil Walden, Jr., almost as a hobby, would bid high amounts on Capricorn promo CDs (you know, the ones clearly stamped "NOT FOR SALE"), and then wait eagerly to see if the seller dared to try and collect on his winning bid. :-) I guess if people traded Hawkwind shows more freely, there wouldn't be such a market for bootleggers. But, people seem to hoard Hawkwind shows, at least compared to other bands I collect. Maybe they don't want the good music to get spread around (for some unknown reason).

This policy also means that even lawful authorized music recordings on CD-R are not permitted on eBay. This following situation illustrates how this might arise. Example: An local band decides to release its latest album on CD-R. The band sells the album on CD-R on eBay to Katie. This is permissible because the band is the copyright owner of the music. Katie now wants to resell the music on CD-R on eBay. The music on CD-R is "lawful music," but Katie (or anyone other than the band) is not permitted to list this item on eBay. ---------------------------------------------------------------- poor Katie, she can't re-sell the damn thing!

I was doing it free (no money required for postage), just asking for a blank cdr to use for copying. I think the best way to avoid seeing bootlegs on ebay is for all Hawkwind fans to network in a much better way, and form a group that freely distributes all bootlegged material. It's not a good idea to pirate official releases, but if diehard fans want these bootlegs, then why not provide them in a way that profits nobody? I believe at the time when I offered to copy Theta for all & sundry I suggested that if they ever meet Dave Brock or get an address, they should send him $5 (minimum). I'm really tempted to bid on the Hawkestra cdr set myself, as I've been trying to find this since the concert happened. But why try to make money off the band you love? If you really love Hawkwind, then why can't you see that Dave & company should be reaping the dividends off this type of item? The Spaceship cannot continue to fly as long as others are earning filthy lucre and diverting the rightful profits elsewhere. Other bands (such as Zeppelin & Deep Purple) have really well organized bootleg trees with very high quality standards and very stringent trading rules. I think it's time Hawkwind fans created their own, as well. There's a number of people with whom I've traded that will probably agree, and at least one I know has tried to set up trees and chains in the past, with limited success. I think with our connections we should be able to "one-up" these other bands, and set up a great structure whereby if a diehard fan really wants some bootleg recording, then they can get it. I'm willing to put all of my Hawkwind bootlegs (I've got a few available, but not as many as I'd like) up for free dispersal. If you want a non-legitimate release that I've got, then it's yours for the asking. Just send me a blank, and I'll even cover return postage myself. (Or if you've got a boot to trade, that's great, too.) And if anybody is willing to give me an address that will reach Dave Brock guaranteed (or a paypal account), then I'll even figure out some way to send royalties each time, too. (There must be some way to work this.) I've had all the Hawkwind offiical releases (except the passport cd) in various formats, and I'd never have sold any of them if some hadn't offered ridiculous exorbitant amounts, but when they get rereleased I'll buy them again. I'm not talking about legitimate releases, but certainly bootlegs contribute to the "fanatical" aspect of being a fan... Just my 2 cents...

Enjoy the rest of your hols. looking forward to Friday Peter Hello Peter, Thanks for your email! We have reviewed the auction you have brought to our attention and taken appropriate action. We would also like to explain eBay's policy with respect to reports like yours. eBay is not in a position to make judgments about the authenticity or authorized nature of auction items, except in the most extreme circumstances. This may mean that we cannot remove the item about which you contacted us. In some cases, we refer the information to the owner of the rights (copyright, trademark, etc.) involved, if we know who they are and how to contact them. Although you may be extremely knowledgeable about these types of items, we often cannot remove items upon the representations of third parties whose credentials we cannot verify, unless of course the alleged infringement is obvious on its face. That is why we strongly urge you to notify the rights holder of the suspected infringement and encourage them to join our Verified Rights Owners (VeRO) Program (formerly called Legal Buddy Program). This program enables them to request the ending of allegedly infringing auctions. We appreciate your vigilance in helping us to keep inappropriate auctions off eBay. If you have any further questions, please feel free to write.

The Hawkwind fans on this list are spread across the globe, and so downloading branches would save a lot of time and postage for distributing seeds between countries. The old timers probably know I have had up a couple of bootleg BOC and Hawkwind albums for FTP in MPEG format at one time or another. I am willing to act as a FTP seed point for BOC or Hawkwind bootlegs in high-quality SHN format. We all heard folks bragging about their fast cable connections on here just recently, :-) so I know there are high-speed download points that can act as snail mail top-level branches, assuming those folks show willing. That may be a big assumption. The spirit of giving back does not seem so strong on this list as on others to which I am subscribed (where B&P/trade offers flow freely). Like Bryan says, its a matter of getting organised and being willing not to hoard material. I have offered up the few bootlegs I have as seeds for trees in the past, but I don't have much material. Sorry for the rant. I guess it's the egg nog talking... ;-) Cheers, Paul. e-mail: paul at gromit.dlib.vt.edu "Without music to decorate it, time is just a bunch of boring production deadlines or dates by which bills must be paid." --- Frank Vincent Zappa From tojackso at LIBRARY.SYR.EDU Wed Dec 27 11:02:58 2000 From: tojackso at LIBRARY.SYR.EDU (Ted Jackson jr.)

Eric S. is here, although I've found him yet. Hotel caveats -- small, and there are stairs. Those of you with heavy luggage be careful (there is a lift, but there are still a few stairs that may need to be navigated.) I fixed the spelling errors for everyone (I think. Any errors left are mine.) Re: meeting space. We've got the Surrey Room in the hotel from 11pm-4am. I'm arranging for tv & video (bring things to watch, please!) and hopefully for a cd player and audio equipment, although the hotel isn't sure that they can get it for me. (so bring cds too ;-) ) They are going to be leaving the hotel bar (just down the lobby from the meeting room) open for us, so that should take care of refreshment ;-) Cost -- well, far too much, as I expected. Any and all chipping in is gratefully (very, very gratefully) appreciated! For those arriving on the 29th, I think that you should be able to check in early (prenoon, if necessary). I tried to arrange for late check out on the 30th (for those leaving then), but they need the rooms....so alas, but noon was the latest I could manage. Other hotel caveats -- it seems a bit old (an older hotel converted to a Quality Hotel at a later date), but still serviceable. The conference facilities are a bit prehistoric, but hopefully they'll do. I'm not unhappy with it (given price), but please forgive me if it isn't up to snuff :-(, since I hadn't an opportunity to visit first. (and stop by and wave hi!)

The hotel informs me of a few things: 1) They don't have a cd player available. So if you've got one that you can bring....bring it,please ;-) (cds too, of course.) 2) Due to weird licensing restrictions, the hotel bar is only open for those folks staying in the hotel. So grab one of us staying at the hotel and give us money for drinks, when you want them. ;-) (though discreetly, please.) If you bring in your own booze, do it discreetly, since the hotel duty manager that I was speaking to didn't know if that broke licensing requirements.

The spirit of giving on the tape front is never easy when you know you are sitting on something that no-one else has - unfortunately or fortunately, I don't as such - at least not where live stuff is concerned - the trouble is that the 'official' stuff I have, I'd get lynched for doing such a thing by those that matter, so I'm out from the start.

Christ! Is it *this* bad? I've always told people who insist that my musical tastes are just weird-'cause-I-like-to-be-weird that I do buy plenty of highly popular stuff also. Perhaps I just can't say that anymore. Cause I'm sure I bought about 100 new albums this year, and I didn't buy a single one of these. In fact, there are plenty of albums here by familiar bands that I have never heard of. Like Bon Jovi. He's really popular again? You're kidding me, when did that happen? And I didn't even know about the live Floyd album! Or Iron Maiden (they still exist?), or U2 and Metallica for chrissakes! AC/DC too. And Pearl Jam (they still exist?). And a-ha...c'mon, how the hell did they resurface?! No way! George Michael? He's out of jail? :) Man, something's happened in the last two years, 'cause I'm totally out of it I guess. But then I have bought zillions of discs by all sorts of very modern groups in the 'post-rock' and avant-garde genres, some of which are even 'hip' to the college alternative crowd. Not enough I guess, 'cause none of them are here. I bet that I have at least *one* of the top 100 from any other year from 1968 up to the mid-90s at least.

Yes it's been played to death on the radio, but some of the tracks that don't get airtime are pretty cool also. 6.Red Hot Chili Peppers, "Californication" California's favorite problem children, always entertaining. Don't judge them by the few tracks that get on the radio... 18.Mark Knopfler, "Sailing To Philadelphia" Beautiful guitar work, Knopfler is a real craftsman. 68.Pink Floyd, "Is There Anybody Out There? -- Live" Haven't bought it yet, but will - it's got to be better than the bootlegs...

Okay, I'll stand up and say that I bought some of this "rubbish." I bought the Floyd _Is There Anybody Out There?_ double album, and bought the Beatles _1_ as a Christmas present for someone. (It boggles the mind how anyone can classify the Beatles as rubbish, but I guess *I'm* the one who's out of it.) I guess you've been living under a rock, Keith. :-) If nothing else but to miss the postings on BOC-L ranting about the Radiohead album in the list. Or to read in the media of the cool release of the *entire* 2000 Euro tour by Pearl Jam[*], which made our local paper, at least. Also, if you happen to catch any Saturday Night Live (I watched it for the election skits), you'll have caught AC/DC doing "Stiff Upper Lip," and U2 doing stuff off their new album. I believe Iron Maiden have actually brought Bruce Dickinson(sp?) and the original guitarist (name?) back into the band, and have heard good things have resulted (at least by Maiden standards). If this is ranked by albums sold, I'm amazed Iron Maiden came in at number 55---above the Backstreet Boys! (I thought it was taken as a given on this list that number of albums sold was not a reliable indicator of quality?)

Now remember I live in that far off land called New Zealand where we still haven't reached 4 million people yet and in a country the same size as the UK and japan. So if we get this stuff advertised on TV then I would assume that the same ads are being plastered on TV in all other countries as well ... and that my friend is the major problem. Saturated advertising to bring in maximum revenue and bugger the creative juices of artistic expression. You and I and others here know there is literally a sea of far more indepth music out there than the top 100 which has been made through sheer "ram it down the publics throat" advertising. Again I come back to the line from the Porcupine Tree 'Signify' CD "the brainwashed do not know they are brainwashed'. That line is more relevant today than maybe at any other time in (music) history. But to really sum it up I see Santana/Supernatural Blues came in at number 1. Why then does Sony need to sell this release by advertising you can be in a draw to win some flash souped up car by buying the Cd .... clearly all is not well in the world of tinsel and consummerism.

I recently picked up a 'sampler' disc of what was advertised as medieval/renaissance/goth, and found quite a lot of it to be really good, though tracking down releases from some of the bands is proving to be difficult. One of the ones I liked best was In Extremo, and I managed to find their latest release, _Verehrt und Angespien_, which their website translates as _Worshipped And Spat At_. Wow, this is some pretty wild stuff. You get a mix of some straight renaissance stuff, and 'metallized' versions of period songs, with some originals and a Sisters of Mercy cover thrown in. Beware, stay away if you can't deal with bagpipes! On the majority of places where you'd expect a guitar lead, the lead is there but played on pipes! Also, all but the cover have the lyrics in other than English, either the original languace of the period song, or in the band's native German. You can get a listen at their website http://www.inextremo.com (replace com with de if you want the German page) scorch From michaelangelo68 at OZEMAIL.COM.AU Thu Dec 28 21:01:20 2000 From: michaelangelo68 at OZEMAIL.COM.AU (Michael Blackman) Date: Fri, 29 Dec 2000 12:31:20 +1030 Subject: HW tshirts Message-ID: Can someone get me an extra large Astoria Concert shirt - Preferably something with concert dates etc & I will repay the cost as well as the postage?

Message-ID: I treated myself to a bunch of the Weird CDs, after seeing the blurb on the Voiceprint website about how they'd been enhanced... I was very, very disappointed, as I have all the original tapes and I can't detect any difference. The actual tracks from the tapes seem to have been transferred straight to CD without *any* enhancement at all. With no EQ, it's dull, lifeless material that with a press of a single button on an (150 quid) Aphex aural exciter magically comes to life. I can actually hear the solos, the cymbals, and the wonderful Korg Minikorg 700 the way it *really* sounds. What beats me is why the (IMHO) greatest band this side of the Horsehead nebula release sub-standard material, when it's so easy to improve. I got the Glastonbury 90 CD, full price, and felt rather ripped off - it should have had a label on saying 'this is the worst quality bootleg you'll ever hear'. Having heard it, I don't know if I'll ever play it again, the quality is so bad. Even with a basic (Ish - Spirit folio rac pac) mixer and EQ and exciter I can get the Weird tapes sounding *much* more like they should - I'll end up remixing them and listening to the reworked versions instead - so why can't a band with their own studio put even a small effort into improving the 'collectors' series? Sure, given the source material on some of them it's not possible to get perfect recordings, but they can be improved dramatically, which shouldn't be a problem for a band with (IIRC) their own studio.... if it's a question of time, I'd be happy to do it for free. -- David Blair From colm1 at MINISTRYOFSOUND.NET Fri Dec 29 23:27:05 2000 From: colm1 at MINISTRYOFSOUND.NET (bedroom trancer) Date: Sat, 30 Dec 2000 04:27:05 -0000 Subject: [Hawkwind] Disapproval Message-ID: lee said: > >However the voices calling out insults to Ron Tree did mar an >otherwise great night.

(Lack of?) In-Reply-To: Message-ID: It does baffle me how the band have been quick to complain about the likes of Dave Anderson and various other dubious record companies releasing sub-standard dissonant material from Hawkwinds past,when lately they seem to be jumping on the same bandwagon themselves. Maybe they decided to take a 'can't beat 'em, join 'em' attitude. I bought the collector series '79 complete', and was also surprised at how 'raw' the recording was. I've always enjoyed the 'raw' quality of live recordings but I don't expect to be paying also for the 'wow & flutter and hiss' of the tape recording as part of the package. There are some real magic moments on 79 complete but I really felt with the technology available in the average recording studio that the whole thing could have been audibly tidied and smoothed out a bit. The result is....I am now very wary of forking out for any more of the Hawkwind 'Archive' material on the voiceprint label. I'll be more inclined to wait a while and pay a little more for what comes out on the EMI Premier Label......(whenever that will be). You can at least guarantee that your paying for a properly engineered quality product. If your reading this Kris,Dave and the band......please take note. Let the rip-off merchants rip-off,because what goes round does eventually come round. I've been following HW and very happy to spend my money on your material for the past 28 years. I'd like to think that I am merely one of thousands of reasons why the band are still a force today. melvyn From dave at PARMA29.FREESERVE.CO.UK Sat Dec 30 06:59:59 2000 From: dave at PARMA29.FREESERVE.CO.UK (david hall) Date: Sat, 30 Dec 2000 11:59:59 -0000 Subject: HW: New Sax player Message-ID: Oh christ, at last - who is it?

First point that should be "..... without Dave Brock". Second, give me a modern Hawkwind to a second rate covers outfit anyday...this must surely piss off Dave Brock - maybe that's the point. Has Nik written anything of note since the first ICU LP (both it and Xitintoday are superb) - that doesn't rely on cobbling old HW tunes together. Nik is a nice guy - however, he seems to trade off this "Nik the soul of Hawkwind" thing but when it comes to HW participation the descriptor "chancer" may be more appropriate.

Yup, I'd go along with all that. The sax player was brilliant- 'Angels Of Death' was given a whole new lease of life, and his snakecharmer-style clarinet during Hassan/Palestine finally gave that section the extra dimension it's lacked before. Dave did say his name but I missed it. > >DOWNERS? >The support acts Have to agree, you must've missed Morphonic who played unremarkable trance-techno, too light and frothy to be really compelling. Spacehead: I didn't enjoy them, leave it at that, don't want to upset their friends and admirers on the list. Simon House was a big disappointment (although he briefly took off on the 'Damnation Alley' section). Tim Blake I actually enjoyed, much to my surprise as I've never liked his solo stuff, but he played one long digi-dub piece ('Tribulation' or something like that) that blew me away. Rest of the set was variable but overall good enough to sustain interest. But why, why have 4 support acts when at the end of the night the Hawks run out of time and we don't get an encore?? Anyone know what they would have played? I saw Ron down at the front explaining the situation to some fans but couldn't catch what he was saying. Not having an encore was strange- no cathartic release, made me realise how ritualistic gigs are (especially Hawkwind gigs)- it just felt incomplete and wrong. None of which alters the fact that this was a bloody brilliant performance: don't think I've ever seen the band so loud, heavy and intense. Everyone played a blinder- how often can one say that? Particular highlights: Damage Of Life: yeesss! Finally I hear one of my favourite Brock songs live. Absolutely superb, hypnotic rhythm throughout, great electronics on the closing section. Flying Doctor: never really liked this track before but it blows the roof off live. Brilliant vocals from Ron. I have gradually come to like Ron's presence more and more and last night confirmed his worth to the band IMO. Sonic Attack: With Mike Moorcock reciting it down the phone from Texas it came together extraordinarily well. The disembodied screeching sounded truly eerie. This track can go either way live, but this was unquestionably the best I've ever heard it. The bass throb which shook the whole building was amazing. Sonic attack indeed. Hurry On Sundown: What can you say? After the joy of hearing it at Brixton, this was even better: an utterly invincible blasting blanga version, biggest cheer of the night. I could be wrong but I got the feeling there was less pre-programmed stuff than of late. With both Harvey and Keith on hand, Dave played more guitar and the whole thing had a more live sound. Once again one has to acknowledge the all-conquering Davey/Chadwick rhythm section: don't let Alan slip away again Dave! He's too valuable! And finally... While I was standing at the food hatch waiting to be served, a bloke asked me to pass the salt. I did so, he poured it over his chips and then walked off. Only then did I realise I had in fact passed him the sugar.

After finally being able to meet them at the after gig party we can honestly say they are some of the nicest people on the planet. We would like to thank Kris for the work she put into organising things, Dave for the kind words of encouragement about our artwork, the photo opportunity and autographs and Huw and his wife for taking time out to chat with us - and the Hawkwind Christmas cake was yummy, thanks Ron for sharing it with us. The laminates are gorgeous, and they will be treasured souvenirs of a brilliant night. As for the concert itself, well you couldn't ask for much better. As usual Hawkwind delivered the goods, and tracks like Damage of Life, and Flying Doctor were a real treat when played live. The whole atmosphere of the Astoria was that of a free festival, okay, it did take a while to get in, which was no thanks to the neanderthalic intellectually challenged doormen, but hey, it was worth it. To those who were unable to make the gig, gotta tell you people, you really missed something extraordinary. To the people that we met up with, Bernhard, Eli, Paula and Kevin, it was great to see you all again and we hope to meet up the next time the Hawkwind machine is rolling. Also managed to pick up all the Weird Tapes, Space Brock, a couple of Huw's albums and some other treasures we have yet to play - we really couldn't have asked for a better night. So a big thank you to Hawkwind and all concerned - you are indeed the Masters of the Universe. Gary & Anna -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

What was the line-up and set list. OK, this is my recollection of what we heard - others will, I'm sure, be able to fill in the gaps in my hazy memory. Song order, particularly, is not to be trusted! Here we go: Levitation Hippy Spacebrock Space Is Deep Flying Doctor Warrior On The Edge Of Time (w/ Moorcock phoning home) High Rise Angels Of Death Lighthouse Damage of Life Free Fall Motorway City Sonic Attack Hurry On Sundown Spirit Of The Age Assassins Of Allah Personal highlights were Space Is Deep, Hurry On Sundown, Flying Doctor & Damage Of Life, but to be honest, there were no lowpoints. Even Angels of Death sounded terrific w/ the added sax. Dave, Alan, Richard & Keith were on-stage pretty much throughout. Harvey & Simon there for most, Jerry slightly less so. Tim appeared for Lighthouse only, Ron for Hippy & the Calvert vocals (and did a great job, I thought). Rizz just for Assassins, thankfully. Huwy was lurking behind Richard's kit for a while & contributed percussion to SotA, but sadly (?) that was it. Anyone I've forgotten? Previous correspondents were right about Spacehead, but I really enjoyed Tim's set & thought Spiral Realms were OK. For the record, I thought it was a terrific night - thanks to one & all involved in putting on the best HW show I've seen in years.

Loads of Astoria shows have the same problem because of this club. I figured the 4pm start would avoid the problem but many of the changeovers took so long I suppose they ran out of time anyway. Can`t help thinking if they hadn`t had the dj`s, we`d have got an encore!

Message-ID: Well done Arin! Definitely a triumph. How Arin managed to pull all that together I do not know. Good hotel at a ridiculously good rate and a superb after party party (My birthday) party. Full marks to the genie of the lamp for the in hotel light show that must have left the Astoria feeling silly as well. It was definitely a great way to wind down after the gig and the after gig do at the 12 bar. Managing to keep everyone, including most of the band, awake relaxed and thoroughly enjoying themselves till 4am is testament enough., I think. Once again, it was great to put names to faces and re-establish contacts with those already known. I'll leave it to others to describe the gig. Bloody good is all I'll say and well worth the nightmare of Virgin Trains to get to (4 hours late and not even arriving at the right city.) Good to see a longer Simon-set and as always wonderful to watch Tim. Even the singer at the 12 Bar was nice. Who were the Techno-duo that opened? Thanks again to Arin, thanks to Gill and (was it) Eric who found a nibbles shop at god knows what time and thanks to the Band for the set and for the after gig party and especially for being so relaxed at the after party party !

We would love to get hold of a box full at CDS. Basically what happened was that it came out very suddenly, with no pre-promotion and as a limited edition. Because it was a one-off deal between the label and the band, with proceeds being shared, the distributor was not the normal one and most outlets failed to get any because by the time they found out about it, and who on earth was selling it, the distributors (Telstar Leisure as they were known) had sold out, We shifted a load, but supplies literally lasted about two weeks and then it was gone. I recently spoke to the Ozrics camp about this and about 7500 were presed of which over healf went to the USA on export, and they reckon that someone somewhere is still sitting on a whole stack of the CD's. Ironically, also, the group have never been paid one red cent by the label for the run of 7500 that were all sold - familiar story????? Hope that helps - anyone want to add anything?

Message-ID: Happy New Year gang! Don't forget your honey! ;) Sweet Relief: Honey and Hangovers Charnicia E. Huggins Holiday revelers have tried many an odd cure for hangovers, but now doctors suggest one that really might work. Eating honey, according to the National Headache Foundation, could help you avoid hangover headaches altogether. "Honey on a cracker or piece of toast, before or after drinking, may prevent a hangover," according to a statement from the headache experts. "Honey--as opposed to some other sugar stores--has fructose, which competes for the metabolism of alcohol," Dr. Merle Diamond, associate director of the Diamond Headache Clinic in Chicago told Reuters Health. This competition prevents the rapid change in alcohol levels that causes the 'bang' headache in the morning, she said. "Tomato juice, another good source of fructose, also helps to burn alcohol faster," according to the National Headache Foundation. Other tricks to avoid holiday hangovers include mixing alcohol with fruit drinks or drinking a "hot toddy" made with honey, lemon and tea--sans the whiskey--Diamond suggested. "But honey works best," she said. Diamond also offered the following, more conventional, tips to avoid the consequences of overindulgence: -- Drink in moderation. -- Pace yourself: don't ingest drinks too quickly, and don't skip meals. -- Avoid red wine: it triggers the most headaches. Chronic headaches, however, that are unrelated to excessive drinking, demand medical treatment, according to the National Headache Foundation. "Headaches are a legitimate biological disease," they said. For more information on the cause and treatment of headache, visit the National Headache Foundation's web site at www.headaches.org.

Mark Licht Robert Jacobs Merrick and Julie French Filip Hawknut ;-) Jill Mike Holmes (who helped arrange payment for the room, when I was too embarrased. Thanks!) Dave Greenhalgh & Manami Nanri Tim Blake Ben Fagin (whom I didn't know was linuxchaos at the time....sorry!) Kevin Sommers Steve Lindsey Kris, Dave, and the band....(the chaos cafe folks, peter pracownik, spacehead, Huw and Marion, and the rest of the gang!) (and others whose names are slipping my mind at the present, sorry!) You folks made all the hassle worthwhile. The gig was fantastic. Just absolutely fantastic. (and I could see!) Afters party was fun, after after party went well, I think. Thanks Jill and Eric for the nibblies, Mike Holmes and Bernhard for the vids, Andreas and others for the music, Robert for the speakers and cd (without which no music could have happened.) Eric and Steve get big thanks for the light show! Thanks to the band for showing up to the party! Arin (in london 'til tomorrow morning.) ps. Mike Habiby -- I got your shirt and cd, as requested.

The unexpected "no passouts" rule meant that I had to miss it. I *knew* being able to come and go from the Astoria as you pleased was too good to be true! Great gig though... superb High Rise, and the most enjoyable Sonic Attack I've ever been, well, attacked with! Those rumbling bass notes!! Oh if only they'd done Paradox though (never happy me!). Flight home delayed by 9 hours... now that was real fun ;) Looking forward to 2001 being another great HW year!

Message-ID: Happy New Year to one and all. Thanks to everyone in Hawkwind for struggling through the weather and appalling road conditions from Devon to get to London - and for getting it all together for the show. I hope they enjoyed doing it as much as I enjoyed being there! Thanks to Arin for organising the hotel and party room. Hi to everyone I met in London (most of whom probably haven't got home yet!) And all best wishes for 2001. May it be a good one. (At least there is a space station up there - even if nothing else quite matches expectations!) jill ----------------------------------------------------------------- Jill Strobridge -----------------------------------------------------------------
