You may have more success with Hawkwind-related queries if you put 'HW' in the message subject (as I have added) since the listserv has automatic message filtering capabilities. There's a list of all known recorded Hawkwind gigs floating around. There's probably a more accessible place to find it, but one place it exists is here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/neo-quark/files/Important%20files/Hawkwind% 20tracks.txt You'll probably need to join the Neo-Quark mailing list on Yahoo! in order to access the file, but if you're into trading live Hawkwind recordings, you'll *definitely* want to join that list. Unfortunately, the earliest known Hawkwind live recording is 23.05.1970, PORT TALBORT, FESTIVAL. Mick Slattery had already left the band by then. I'm not aware of any similar list of Calvert gigs. That would be an interesting one to assemble, since many of his "gigs" were special theatrical events (such as the 'Kid From Silicon Gulch' rock operetta or the 'Hype' shows). There are several recordings from his '86 tour with Krankschaft (aka Steve Pond and Fred Reeves ex-ICU) similar to the 'Queen Elizabeth Hall' live album. An entire show (excellent sound and performance quality) can be downloaded on MP3 here: http://www.innercityunit.com/ (click the Calvert & ICU link, and scroll to the bottom of the page) Hope this helps ... -Doug jasret at mindspring.com P.S. is .AT Austria?

Take the direct train from Hastings to London Victoria and then change stations (ummm - Paddington I think) to get to Devon. But you will need to be aware of the distances involved here! Hastings is well SE of London on what I call the trundle train system so it's a two hour train journey get to there (via Eastbourne! for heavens sake - one thing about touring with Hawkwind is you do get to see an odd assortment of English towns) and it's a three and a half hour train journey from London to get to Devon. Just to give you an idea of distances - it takes as long to get from London to Plymouth (West Devon) as it does from London to Newcastle (and Newcastle is less than an hour away from the Scottish border!) so you will spend most of the day travelling. There's no way I can do Hastings as well and I'm also kinda hoping the Devon Fest site isn't too far distant from a train station (or at least a bus route!) 8-)) cheers jill ----------------------------------------------------------------- Jill Strobridge ----------------------------------------------------------------- From youless at LVCM.COM Tue Jun 4 19:13:44 2002 From: youless at LVCM.COM (Moonglum .)

I am expecting this to take 6-7 hours, but it's more scenic than driving back up towards London, round the M25 to the M4, M4 almost to Bristol and then M5 towards Exter. An alternative route would be come off the M25 onto the M3 to past Basingstoke, then A303 to Devon, passing Stonehenge on the way. (This is assuming I get the email about the Fest and can book a ticket. In common with others I have not had official word...) Unfortunately I can't offer anyone a lift as all spaces in the car are booked.

This would be denominated in U.S. dollars so you'd have to take a guess at how much to send. You should probably opt for $76 - based on the "typical cash rate" currency converter at http://www.oanda.com/convert/classic. Most banks charge a $9 fee for providing an IMO, which is made payable to the payee just like a cheque is. The recipient treats it exactly as though it were a cheque or postal order, so it should be an acceptable form of payment. As they're paid for upfront they're actually as safe as a Cashier's Check.

Real interesting. He said that Huw had an injured elbow and was not able to contribute much guitar playing to the new album. Also that Mike Moorcock is doing some spoken word pieces. They played the Hawkwind medley that Dave sang on for that Star One cd. It sounded really good. I would like to hear the rest of the disc. If the rest of the cd is anywhere as good as the medley, then it is probably fantastic. Has anyone heard the whole disc?

It is as it is titled. Space Metal. Its a very metal oriented sound but with some beautiful arrangements and plenty of spacey synth to keep it from being just another metal album. It is very well produced and I think most on this list would enjoy it. The medley is so good and the fact that it has Dave Brock singing just makes it that much more special. I am happy with it.

It's kind of an odd coincidence, but I saw a tribute CD at a record store yesterday, called "The song RAMONES the same" *coughs at the bad pun* It looked like a new (or at least recent) release.

AC/DC? Never heard of Road To Ruin but I dont follow what they do. I ignored them until I realised that everytime you jam here (Sydney) people play their songs so learnt a few. They are a lot of fun to play. I think they were alright really up to For Those About to Rock. Losing Bon didn't help and Johnston voice has been gone for nearly 20 years. They used to play local halls when I was a teenager but I didn't go because they were uncool.

I think I started listening to them because of the mutual admiration society that sprang up between them and Motorhead. (--I remember one of the Ramones, might have been Johnny, saying something like, "There's only two good bands out there today, us and Motorhead.") Probably not a popular opinion among Ramones fans, but some of my favorite stuff is from "Too Tough to Die" onward. Some really neat songs that I think actually benefitted from the infusion of just a touch of commercialism and accessibility to the general public. I think that when a band is as hardcore and UNcommercial as the Ramones or Motorhead, they can soften their sound a little without really selling out. Both bands did that in recent years to great effect. (Motorhead continues to do so, while the Ramones, for obvious reasons, do not.) Several times, I've seen Dee Dee's novel, "Chelsea Horror Hotel", on bookshelves and almost bought it. Has anyone read it? Is it any good? --Nick From mail at ABRAHAMSI.FREESERVE.CO.UK Sun Jun 9 11:52:22 2002 From: mail at ABRAHAMSI.FREESERVE.CO.UK (Ian Abrahams) Date: Sun, 9 Jun 2002 16:52:22 +0100 Subject: HW: Advanced FestieTransport Message-ID: ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rich Warren" >One thing that would be useful to those of us getting the train down to Devon for the Festie is the >location of the nearest railway station. >After all if we don't book tickets at least 2 weeks in advance we will get stung for huge amounts of >money due to the painful way the rail ticketing system works. Even the cheapest tix available for a >randomly guessed station in Devon are currently 43 return to London :-( At a *guess* without knowing the exact location of the festival, my hunch would be the nearest station will be Exeter and you'll probably need to hire a car for onward travel or investigate the bus routes and be prepared for a fair journey after Exeter. Rail prices are higher on a Friday, but a useful tip if you can be specific about which trains you will use is that a 1st Class Apex (a 7 day advance sale ticket) will not be more than a couple of pounds more than an open 2nd class ticket and gives a much better travel environment. Of course, a 2nd class Apex will be about half the price..you need to book this about 4-6 weeks early to have a good chance of getting one as tickets are limited. This is available on the Paddington to Exeter route, there is also Waterloo to Exeter, but journey times are (I think) much longer. If driving down, I know some people have recommended the A303 route which goes past Stonehenge. I travelled back from London to Cornwall this way once..it's not much fun as the road changes from single lane to dual carriageway and back an alarming number of times and needs a lot of concentration if the weather is poor. In my opinion the M4, M5 route is much better (and about the same number of miles), though if the festival is out towards, say, Seaton, the A303 will get you closer quicker.

After the "Thick as a Brick" excerpt, someone in the audience asked "Where the hell was "Biggles when ya needed him last Saturday! We lost it, the band lost it!! What a great nite! Part of what made this so nice was that the show was in out local opera house! What a great place for a show! Dunno if anyone's familiar with the Young Dubliners. I don't know alot about them, just that they're here alot. They reminded me a bit of Wolfstone without the pipes. Not too bad, and very enthusiastic about it. I think I'd like to check out some of their studio stuff. Live stuff tends to drown out the subtitles in the tunes:( Well folx, off to dreamland with a head full to Tull! Have a great one!

I really enjoyed it. Damo and his band played about 3 or 4 songs I think. Each one was about 30 minutes long and it sounded like they jamming alot, varying slightly, and building up. There were some excellent peaks where you just got more and more into it. Circle weren't quite as good as the first time I saw them. The sound was a bit distorted but they still sounded pretty powerful and I ended up buying some more of their CDs including a live one which has a version of Kultaa from Tantamus on it. I really want to see these guys headlining a gig. I just wish there were more fans to make it feasible. Regards, Alastair.

Thank you ohhhhhhhhh...................and by the way..................... a couple more things while I'm at it................. The Hawkwind 'Masters Of Rock' CD that came out a month or two back on EMI in the UK (you know, the one with the EMI stuff and the two extra tracks), has been released in Holland only they couldn't use that title for the series, so they've called the series.........wiat for this........ "The Very Best xxxxxx Album Ever", so the Hawkwind one is now "The Very Best Hawkwind Album Ever" (lol) and is repackaged too with a grooup photo on the front and (get this) a colour photo of just Nik Turner on stage on the inside cover. Anyway, for collectors it's only about ?6.99 and we're stocking it. On a personal note, I picked up a copy of the cassette on Charisma featuring 'Quark' and 'PXR 5' on the same cassette (cat no CASMC 110) and it's open to the first person who'll exchange it for a copy of the last Foo Fighters album on cassette or CD - honest!!! Finally, as it's all public service stuff anyway, we're taking orders for the sizzling new Ozrics Live Double CD at exciting offer price of ?14 (minus the VAT reduction for overseas people). So get in there as it's out in 2 weeks. Anyone wanting to complain about all this, well, feel free.....I'll listen............ But you know love and trust me by now surely..........

Unfortunatley I think it may be true that after a while even the most die-hard fan could get tired of the same-old same-old. As others have pointed out, you have the essential Ramones with their 1st 4 or 5 releases, and AC/DC with most (not all) of their albums up to 1981, but we all know Motorhead was more interesting and successful at the formula than the others - everything up to Orgasmatron is pretty much essential. I'd have to say that since 1986 they haven't released any truly great albums, though 1916 and Sacrifice may yet join that list - the latest doesn't buck the pattern. Lemmy is really looking kinda old now (is that his lucky hat that he left in San Francisco in the photo?) They are NOT just going through the motions, but maybe they need to shake things up - perhaps they should bring in another guitarist. Regardless, if Lemmy is putting out records in another 20 years, I'll still be buying them. And I know most of the above is open to debate.

I don't know if he actually has sent anyone a copy, or if lots of people started pestering him he might change his mind, but I thought it was a nice gesture, and one good turn deserves another, so I got a copy of this. Even got a copy with the bonus disc in it. The packaging is great, a hard bound book with the discs inserted in sleeves like pages, and lots of very well done 'I made it on a computer' art. As others here have said it is fairly fast power metal with a bit of space, a bit of symphonic, and a bit of progressive. I haven't followed this particular scene for a while, so I can't compare it to anything that's out there now, but I'm thinking back to stuff like Queensryche, Fate's Warning, Iron Maiden, and Yngwie Malmsteen, though I don't think this is anywhere close to the level of the best stuff any of those bands put out. Have to say I'm with Chuck on this one, it has excellent production, but its a bit one-dimensional, with a generic 80's metal feel to it, and ends up being not especially memorable. Everything is played at the same level, no subtlety or variation. OK, metal isn't supposed to be subtle you say, maybe I'm just getting too old for it. Anyway after research on the internet it seems that AAL had his dream, and persevered despite label indifference, and ended up independently creating well-received records and influencing others to create music like his, so more power to him, that's what music needs even if I personally don't care for the particular outcome. I'm not going to seek out more of his stuff, or even really recommend Star One, but I certainly wish him all the best and hope he continues to be successful. Stephan P.S. All the songs are based on sci-fi movies or TV shows that are easily identifiable, but I'm not certain about the first one, though I'd say its 95% likely to be Doctor Who. Anyone else think so?

The real reason I mention this is something Ian writes in the liner notes - there are apparently some plans for Tull to release old soundboard recordings on CD through their official website - stuff that they consider to be not realistically releaseable in todays musical climate but that would be better quality than the bootlegs and that would make fans happy, even if it would not make economic sense to do an actual official release. Hawkwind should seriously consider something similar. And related to that, and the real point of this post, I think the official Hawkwind site should be looking into setting up some type of e-commerce deal - just a PayPal account would be a big improvement - so that we could get the 1997 disc, and the Canterbury show when it comes out, and even our Hawkwind passports, without having to screw around with international money orders and exchange rates.

Hawkwind should seriously consider something >similar. Sounds like the "Collectors Series" (especially the bit about "old soundboard recordings ... not realistically releaseable in todays musical climate" - that would describe the 76/79/82 sets to a "T") to me! *I* certainly would like to see more of these (the new 1990 one is a great start, especially since 89/90 is my favorite era for "live" Hawkwind between '78 and '95). Especially welcome (to me) would be a full-length recording from the 1984 Earth Ritual tour, especially if they could fit in the guest appearences from Lemmy, Moorcock & Dave Anderson. Although after all of the "golden-eared" whiners complaining about 'Glastonbury 90' (an excellent album that continues to grow on me with successive listens ... if you want "perfection", go listen to Steely Dan or something! Or one of those "live" albums where all the guitar parts were re-recorded by a session player in the studio. Jeez!), I wouldn't be surprised if the idea of putting out more "Collectors Series" live albums seemed much less appealing that it once had been. -Doug jasret at mindspring.com From Chuckrecs at AOL.COM Tue Jun 11 23:15:35 2002 From: Chuckrecs at AOL.COM (Chuck Rosenberg) Date: Tue, 11 Jun 2002 23:15:35 EDT Subject: OFF: Space/Psyche and related CD's FS Message-ID: OK, some discs for sale, mostly used.

I have not heard the new album. AC/DC have alway's suffered from embarrassingly juvenile bad lyrics. I saw Angus on our local guitar TV show and he was so dumb he could hardly speak. He plugged his SG in and maybe he didn't warm his old arthritic fingers up beforehand but he was terrible. He can play far better than that. I do like the Ramones live double from the seventies and a few other things but I prefer people that can play a little better. I read in an interview ages ago that they could only play the one barre chord shape and could not play other peoples songs so they made up their own. Of the three bands Motorhead, AC/DC and the Ramones I would rate the Ramones last. AC/DC are a good band but they are a very commercial product and a long way from "If You Want Blood" now. Motorhead are one of my favourite bands and to me are better than the other two combined. They aren't in the same class. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stephan Forstner" To: Sent: Wednesday, June 12, 2002 8:21 AM Subject: OFF: Ramones, AC/DC, Motorhead > These 3 bands were geniuses in that they perfected variations of a great > concept - loud fast dirty grooving guitars - and then proceeded to release > thousands of albums using the same formula with small modificationns > (detractors will say no modifications).

It is irrelevant. Dumb people make dumb music which is fine for other dumb people I suppose. Smart people make smart music and the music is far better for it. I like the Calvert era most with Hawkwind and it is because he had a planet sized brain that really made the difference. His wild eccentric mind gave the band breathtaking concepts and ideas and his intelligent and articulate lyrics are just wonderful. Lyrics matter. The smarter and artier the lyricist the better the lyrics. I have seen the Ramones and I could jump straight in and do it just as well. I dont dislike them but I can't take them seriously (they aren't meant to be taken seriously). They made a career out of dumb music and good luck to them. If it wasn't for smart musicians realising after hearing Dylan in the early sixties that song writing can be much more than silly love songs we would be stuck with dumb music. Intelligence and the turbocharging effect it has on imagination are a major part of the music of people like Hawkwind, Dylan, Hendrix, The Beatles, The Stones, Sex Pistols, Pink Floyd, Syd Barret, Cream, Neil Young, the Doors etc. All these bands have at least one smart person and it makes a big difference. I may not be into all of them as my preference is hard rock but they are well above the Ramones and AC/DC. I should mention that Lemmy is actually a very bright boy too.I think I would go as far to say that you need at least one very bright person in the band to be truly great. They are the ones that have the imagination to make major breakthroughs and have a good understanding of music history to draw from. They dont really need to be great musicians but that helps too. Technical proficiency is another matter. The problem is these people might practice,scales, vibrato and tapping 20 hours a day but they have absolutely no idea how to apply their skills and are too dumb to write a decent song. A perfect example would be Malmsteen. That guys music really sux. Much rather listen to the Ramones or AC/DC. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert C.

He only play's Gibson LP's and cheap copies dont sound like that although I have an 8 year old Epi LP Custom with a deep ballsy sound. It is actually pretty good if too muddy but I would use it for gigs if I was in a band. It is actually deeper but fuzzier sounding than my LP Classic goldtop but that has Page ceramic pickups. No way I would use the goldtop at gigs unless I was hanging on to it the whole time. If you want to hear Wells get a Rose Tattoo song from Audiogalaxy. You will quickly agree that only a genuine LP sounds like that - sheer grunt. But if you can't afford a genuine LP the top of the range Epiphones will make you very happy. My Epi LP Custom was my first reasonable guitar and when non players look at my guitars it pisses me off that the Epi is the one they like most because it is black with gold trim. This is off topic stuff is probably annoying some people so I suggest further posts can be moved to Mikewind 2000 where anyone can rave on as much as they like about anything. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stephe Lindas" To: Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2002 1:21 AM Subject: Re: Ramones, AC/DC, Motorhead > Maybe the Les Paul was a cheap copy and he taped over the name so folks > would think it was a real one > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Steven Skane" > To: > Sent: Wednesday, June 12, 2002 9:36 AM > Subject: Re: Ramones, AC/DC, Motorhead > > > > Pete Wells is an excellent player.

It is hard not to judge the sort of fool that thinks intelligence is something for scientists in a university and has nothing to do with music.....or at least nothing to do with the type of music he prefers. I do agree that intelligence has a limited involvement in the Ramones and AC/DC and thus recommend them to Robert C. Mayo but not to Robert Z. Mayo or Robert B. Mayo, or Robert F. Mayo. Thank God you put the B in there, otherwise I may have mixed youu...hanging on it is a C. Thank God you put the C in their otherwise I may have mixed you up with the dozens of other Robert Mayo's on this list. Of course, if you are the only Robert Mayo on this it may be considered rather pretentious to bang the initial between your names. Roll out the Rush... You are right. I am a snob and usually can't be bothered with drooling idiots like you. Rush and Yes are dull and pretentious with woeful lyrics. The lyrics are probably the worst thing about these bands. There is nothing wrong with liking them but it is funny you think it gives you intellectual creds. It does the opposite although I am sure Mensa parties groove to them lol. The megabright brigade usually sneer at all rock music and listen to classical music. Be glad your stupidity allows you to be easily impressed by a huge range of crap in every field of human endeavour - it makes life easier. It is highly amusing you feel so personally insulted when my point was that smarter people have a larger range of concepts and words to draw on and if they have the talented they are far better than dumb people at making music as it is an intellectual endeavour. To bad you are so stupid you think intelligence means being a scientists and you have never noticed the role intelligence play's in music. I didn't call myself smart because most people like me are painfully aware of how ignorant we are. Whereas your stupidity never occurs to you on a conscious level even though you appear to have developed quite a problem over it in taking an offhand comment so personally. Maybe you were called dumb by your mother or at school or your life isn't going well. Anyway, someone has to clean the streets.... Steven L.

I never meant for him to be insulted in the first place and was a little suprised that he decided to attack. Flame wars rapidly become tiresome and I was going to leave it at that in case he punched my head in. If Mr Mayo took the opposite opinion I would have happily argued that intelligence wrecks true art. I thought of pretending a bronze swimming certificate was my highest acheivement but yeah I ripped it from Red Dwarf which is my favourite show after knocking the Pythons and related shows off from top spot a decade or so back. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chuck Rosenberg" To: Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2002 4:57 PM Subject: Re: smart music for dumb people > In a message dated 6/12/02 11:35:51 PM Pacific Daylight Time, > sskane at BIGPOND.NET.AU writes: > > > Steven L.

Far less in other cities. Is it big? It all depends. Compared to BackstreetBritneySpiceCrap it's nothing. But that's not really saying much. How does it compare to other Moscow gigs, and how big a crowd can Malmsteen draw in NY or London? I doubt HW could draw that many in Toronto -- which would be part of the reason they haven't been here since 1995 :-( Anyone know how many were at Walthamstow last fall?

I'd love to hear them revive "Waiting For The Man" (although that one would've been best sung by Ron IMO). Or perform the two Pink Floyd covers that they've already recorded (25 years apart!). Or maybe a Pink Floyd song and a Pink Fairies song ("Uncle Harry's Last Freakout"? "Do It"? "When's The Fun Begin"?). Or a medley of "Psychotic Reaction" (by the Count V) and "Brainbox Pollution" (because of the weird similarities between the verses of the two songs).

What you've actually done here is make the following points: A) You think you're smart. Good for you! B)You think the music you like is smart. Ok... C) Anyone who likes music that you don't enjoy is dumb. Clever twist on the standard 'Your favorite Band Sucks!' argument. D) Yes and Rush are dumb; Motorhead and Hawkwind are smart.

I've been wondering what Motorhead's "Orgasmatron" would sound like done in a far more subtle Dusseldorfian Krautrock style (a la Neu!, or Opa-Loka), and figure Hawkwind could do that just as well as any other post-rock band. Plus, the lyrics are wonderful...bashing religion, military, and politics in succession as only Lemmy can. Others... Roger Taylor - title track from 'Fun In Space' (Dave vocals) - to replace "Love in Space"! :) Porcupine Tree - Out (var. of Magnu, with altered lyrics) - only fair, eh?

I wasn't remotely sorry and was hoping it would shut you up. You were fun to annoy for a short time. I dont think I am smart by my definition but yes there is no doubt you are dumb. Knowing you have a low level of intelligence does not translate to me thinking I am smart unless it is in comparison to feeble twits like you. Your music tastes is not why I consider you dumb. It was the music has nothing to do with intelligence stupidity. In some cases intelligence can even detract from the music. Hawkwind and Motorhead fans in fact have the reputation of being a bunch of ignorant drugged neanderthal morons who have trouble spelling words like 'juvenile' and are too dumb to realise the significance of learning how to read and write. Not all Hawkwind fans are cretins (undoubtedly plenty are brighter than me but you are not one of them) but you fit perfectly into the stereotype. The only Hawkwind period that I would consider truly intelligent would be the Calvert period. Despite people giving me funny looks if I admit I like Hawkwind and Motorhead I have no problem with people making jokes about it. Get it in to your head. Liking these bands is not a badge of intelligence with very bright people. If you knew anyone that is truly bright you would be more than a little aware of the stature of space rock and heavy metal. I have no trouble with people stirring me about my taste in music If I was obsessed with appearing to be intelligent I would listen to jazz, classical or opera. There was no challenge because I will never consider a brainless rock bozo who thinks using your brain is something that should stay in a university science department an equal. Thank God for people like you. Even after surgery that should have severely blunted my cognitive ability I still have more than enough left over to pickup my life. Next time you get to a word that is beyond your ability to spell try looking it up and learn how to spell it. You will learn something and it will make people less inclined to dismiss you as someone who doesn't read or have the intellectual rigour to think spelling is important. It may even help you to get a job if you are unemployed. I just got an email about a Hawkfriend that is in deep trouble. This makes you even less of a priority. You are not sufficiently helpless enough to go easy on or be nice to. Nor are you of enough interest to bother with. Not remotely sorry as an apology failed to end the unpleasantness, Steven L. Skane That makes it two abusive letters each. If you must bore me and everyone else and it makes you feel better write another stupid letter. I wont bother reading it. People join these lists because they like a band, not to be bored by two bickering dickheads like us. This dickhead has had enough.

That and a show called "Escape Into Night" (based on the Storr story "Marianne Dreams") really got me as a kid. If you remember the latter you'll remember a house surrounded by standing stones with eyes in them. Channel Four much later did a very Freudian film called "Paperhouse" based on the same story. I wouldn't mind hearin a Hawkwind cover of The Sweet's "Hell Raiser" either.

Two kids discover that if they crawl through a certain hole in a fence they get transported back to WWII where there was an Intelligence base there. They get involved in spook type adventures with a guy called Commander Traynor who also is still around in current time. One kid is a geek called "Simon" and the other is a girl whose name I can't remember. In the second series they go to a future dystopia with a base at the same spot.

If going by public transport (i.e. train) your only real bet is to go from Hastings to London and then from London to Exeter (probably). If driving, there are 2 different routes, one involves driving to London and then going west on the M4, then south-west on the M5. The other route, more difficult to drive but more scenic, is to head west from Hastings, taking the coast road all the way to Devon, which I estimate would take 6-7 hours... http://www.multimap.co.uk will allow you to find both Hastings and Exeter by searching for them.

Actually, I'm probably wrong. A thread on the missing-episodes discussion board seemed to suggest it was shown as late as 1980.

Davros for me. Daleks Rule! Note that the World Economic Forum usually meets in Davos, Switzerland. Coincidence? I don't think so..... We built a dalek once. At the university I went to (Waterloo), there was (probably still is) an annual play/revue/excuse-for-partying called FASS. Always lots of in jokes, puns, silliness, and filk songs written (well, the lyrics anyway) for the show. FASS '79 was all on a Dr. Who theme. The lead character was, of course, Dr. Whom. This was during the Tom Baker period, so our Doctor had a huge loooong scarf that he kept tripping over etc. There were a bunch of boy scouts going after bizarre merit badges and generally stirring up shit; Sam and Janet Evening (say it five times fast and you'll know their theme song); a hunchback named Pseudomodo; a computer who was very much a HAL 9000 clone, and a great piece of work as a prop -- two 9-track tape reels for eyes, with car headlights in the centers, and flashbulbs (remember those?) for one particular cue; a cheerleader (there was *always* a cheerleader, 'cause .... damn, what was her name? .... anyway, that was her thing, and her boyfriend was one of the inner circle, so they always found a way to write her into the script). Well, you get the idea. There was a longstanding FASS tradition that people would throw in ad-libs for the Friday-night late show. They always tried to discourage it -- the show had been known to go *hours* over time -- but it was not to be suppressed. This guy Russell and I were walking back from a rehearsal one night (I was a lowly grip, aka stage hand), and I said to him (though I'm sure he remembers it differently :-) hey, it'd be cool to build a dalek for the Friday late show. So we did. We got permission to use the workshop of the *other* theatre on campus (so as to keep the secret), drafted a few more people, and assembled the thing. It was a bit of a mutant -- we couldn't find an appropriately domed thing for the head, so just used a plastic washbasin. The hardest part was the knobbies on the skirt, but then Ian! came up with the answer: hamburger buns. Holy lateral thinking, Batman! We bought a bunch, left them out for a couple of days to go stale and hard, spray-painted them black ... presto, dalek knobbies. The only one of us who actually had the nerve to go on stage in the thing was this tall gangly guy Rob, and he had to scrunch down with his knees almost up around his ears to fit inside it. After its one shining moment on stage, we took it back to the CSC (Computer Science Club) and made it our mascot. Charles won the name-the-dalek contest hands down. He suggested "Calum" which, he pointed out, is an archaic form of "Malcolm", the latter being a pretty unpopular CS prof. There were fights with Watsfic (the science-fiction club) whose office was back-to-back with ours. At one point (after my time) they stole Calum and painted him pink and blue. But then I believe the CSC got him back. Calum T. Dalek has had a long, if not particularly illustrious, career as a UW undergrad. He joined the ACM (Association for Computing Machinery), and began receiving their journals. For all I know, he's been a student member of the ACM for over 20 years (I wonder if their subscription system's smart enough to catch such things?). A Google search shows that he's been published in Wired (and quoted in all seriousness in somebody's book!) I have no idea whether he still exists in physical form, but according to their web site (www.csclub.uwaterloo.ca), Calum T. Dalek is still their Chairbeing, and many illustrations adorn the site. Imagine my joy, in 1984 on my first trip to England, at not only getting to see HW for the first and second times, but also stumbling across an SF store (Forbidden Planet maybe?) that had the real deal -- a genuine BBC dalek! Plus dalek t-shirts for sale AND Deep Fix "New Worlds Fair" posters.

Qualification for albums was initially on the basis of revenue received by manufacturers. With effect from January 1978 the BPI council decided to abolish the old monetary system for albums and replace it with a unit system. This brought album awards into line with singles and also with other countries where qualification levels are based on unit sales. Multi-platinum awards were introduced in February 1987 and are any multiple of the platinum level eg quadruple platinum status for an album = 1.2m. Awards are only available to BPI members and the qualifying unit levels are as follows: Albums*/ Singles Silver 60,000 /Silver 200,000 Gold 100,000 /Gold 400,000 Platinum 300,000 /Platinum 600,000 *(LPs and cassettes with a dealer price ?3.70+ or ?6+ for CDs) The following eligibility rules apply: 1. Only firm, invoiced sales to the trade qualify for awards. 2. Sales of all formats can be added for all awards. 3. Sales for export do not apply. 4. One "unit" is one package, regardless of how many discs or cassettes are included. 5. Awards can only be made to the record company/label concerned and to the artist, manager or producer. 6. Published dealer prices are those used for chart qualifying levels. ----------------- Doing a search on the BPI site shows the HW albums/singles that the BPI say have received rewards. Note that the dates are all after the change of awards sytem mentioned above and so are for units sold not revenue received. Also, I believe that someone has to actually apply for an album to be certified. From work researching another artists awards (under US rules mainly), it appears that unless the band/manager/record company apply to the BPI to have something certified, they won`t be done as the BPI don`t check unless asked. I also think someone has to pay for it as well. HAWKWIND , WARRIOR ON THE EDGE OF TIME , Silver , Wed Oct 25 1978 HAWKWIND , HALL OF THE MOUNTAIN GRILL , Silver , Wed Oct 25 1978 HAWKWIND , SPACE RITUAL ALIVE , Silver , Mon Jan 1 1979 HAWKWIND , ROAD HAWKS , Silver , Thu Sep 11 1980 HAWKWIND , IN SEARCH OF SPACE , Gold , Thu Sep 2 1982 HAWKWIND , IN SEARCH OF SPACE , Silver , Thu Sep 2 1982 So the one on ebay is very probably a fake if it`s a UK award.

Certainly I`ve got pictures of bands each holding their own version of the award.

Now, I don't agree with you there. It's good, but there are to my way of thinking only two standout tracks on there, which are the BOC cover (`Godzilla') and `Mongoose', everything else sounds like generic Fu Manchu. Generic Fu Manchu is pretty good, but the only way to score their albums is by the ones where they aren't just doing the usual stuff, of which thw two you mention struck me as prime examples.

Jarrett is from the 'Paradise Out Here' LP, and is longer than the single version (which is still pretty long for a track on a 7" single). And yes, "Five Crowns" is the track with the spooky/goth vocals, and "Poppy" is an instrumental. Those who saw Primordial Undermind in Chicago or Cleveland in '99 would have heard our version of "Poppy" ... Eric's (Arn, mr. P.U.) clever way of circumventing the rule that every band I'm in has to cover a Hawkwind song, since the F/i tune was close enough. -Doug jasret at mindspring.com From jasret at MINDSPRING.COM Mon Jun 17 15:37:45 2002 From: jasret at MINDSPRING.COM (Doug Pearson) Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2002 15:37:45 -0400 Subject: HW: For sale Message-ID: On Mon, 17 Jun 2002 19:30:41 +0100, Captain Bl at ck wrote: >Anybody know how many records you have to sell to get a platinum disc? In the USA, it's a million copies (1,000,000). Obviously, it makes sense that it would be a smaller number for the smaller UK market (as described in Si's post). I certainly can't imagine Hawkwind being a platinum- selling band (except perhaps in the list's collective dreams), though. The theory that it's a silver album, not a platinum one, makes lots of sense to me ... Sales figures for Hawkwind albums would be an interesting trivia item (to me, at least), but would probably be impossible to compute worldwide. -Doug jasret at mindspring.com From ma-paharper at IOPENER.NET Mon Jun 17 16:27:43 2002 From: ma-paharper at IOPENER.NET (Tim) Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2002 16:27:43 -0400 Subject: HW: For sale Message-ID: Okay then, by a show of hands...1...2...3...4...5...6...7................. tim > Sales figures for Hawkwind albums would be an interesting trivia item (to > me, at least), but would probably be impossible to compute worldwide. > > -Doug > jasret at mindspring.com From coral at APORT.RU Mon Jun 17 17:47:55 2002 From: coral at APORT.RU (Alisa) Date: Tue, 18 Jun 2002 01:47:55 +0400 Subject: HW: on Moscow radio station!

Dj said that he will return someday to Hawkwind and will tell about their history. He said that they were inventors of space rock but he also said that in this song he doen't hear space rock... I know that this dj is a very strange man, very prog/rock and computer/sampled music oriented.

The plan is to remaster the complete catalog. The next to be tackled are Specters and Fire of Unknown Origin. It takes a while to get these things together because the bonus tracks have to be located and in most cases remixed (or just mixed for a first time). All remasters will have bonus tracks because there was so much stuff left off. The other factor was that they didn't want to remaster the whole thing at once because they didn't know how it would sell and if it would be worth the extra expense. The first four made back their expense in the first four months. Guess they'll be doing more. They're set to start Specters in September.

Awesome show, with the exception of Scorpions. . . but that's just my taste. Actually, compared with DP, Dio wasn't that hot either, but he put on a capable show.

Scorpions were probably good if you like them. I personally don't. I had two or three of their albums in the early '80s, but got over them quickly. A lot of "guitarist jumps up on drum riser and places guitar between legs" schtick. Lots of lighters in the air during "Wind of Change", etc. Deep Purple really kicked ass. Ian Gillan was pretty energetic and, as always, funny.

They played nothing from Abandon and only "Ted the Mechanic" from Purpendicular. Everything else was pre-Steve Morse, except for a new song they're working on for their next album. It's an instrumental called "The Well-Dressed Guitar", and it was REALLY good, from what I heard. John Lord broke into the "Star Wars" theme during his solo, which was kinda bizarre, but a lot of people were jazzed. Encores were "Hush" and "Highway Star".

A lot of >"guitarist jumps up on drum riser and places guitar between legs" schtick. Not to get into another 'dumb vs. smart' music debate, but the Scorps are among my favorite 'dumb' bands, post-Roth that is. Everything up to Lovedrive was pretty intelligent I think, esp. Roth's unique style and inspired soloing. (Let's forget his "singing" for the moment, shall we? And we can ignore Rarebell's infantile lyrics too, but then Meine's accent makes them unintelligible anyway, so...) And they did both 'We'll Burn the Sky' and 'Coast to Coast' which was quite cool. Nobody in the USA prolly ever knew they existed before Animal Magnetism and "The Zoo." (Well, that album was my first taste of them too.) >Deep Purple really kicked ass.

Um, I think you mean Don Airey. Jon "the Refrigerator" Lord retired this year. And you didn't point out the bit of Gary Glitter they covered...."Hey!" Dinosaur Rock Lives! Grakkl (FAA), who tries not to let the embarassment of subsidizing this sort of thing to sink in... P.S. My brother tells me he heard on the radio Ronnie James claiming to have "invented" the Devil-horn sign (which is quite absurd), and then lamenting that "the kids" these days just don't understand its significance when they use it as a simple greeting gesture in passing. :) Aw, what's happened with today's devil-worshipping youth?! Everything's going to hell nowadays. :) P.P.S. On Meine's accent...was it just me, or did it seem like he was saying "Hello, Pittsburgh, Pasadena!" all the time? :) P.P.P.S. Why did Dio's (short opening) set include a drum solo? What a waste of time. Ian Paice did not do a solo at some other gigs (according to reports), but sadly did one in Pgh, making it a 'three drum-solo night.' What misery! P.P.P.P.S.

I was near the back of the "covered" seats, so I got pretty wet when the rain blew in during Scorpions. Yet another reason to hate their set. And I hadn't heard anything about Lord retiring, either. That's too bad. Yeah, I forgot to mention the Gary Glitter thing. That kind of put me off, actually, since Gary Glitter is a kiddie porn fanatic who now splits his time between various Asian countries where child porn is more accessible. I've always felt that sports stadiums should drop that song now, too. --Nick From js3619 at ACMENET.NET Tue Jun 18 16:21:54 2002 From: js3619 at ACMENET.NET (Bolts of Ungodly Vision) Date: Tue, 18 Jun 2002 16:21:54 -0400 Subject: OFF: Deep Purple in concert In-Reply-To: <200206182016.QAA35018@www1524.boca15-verio.com> Message-ID: If i remember correctly, Jon Lord will play the UK leg of the tour with Deep Purple as his final good bye.

Naturally I read the entry and though the lyrics to Del Rio's Song don't seem to have much to do with him I'm wondering if there's not some kind of connection there nonetheless. "Del Rio (1551-1608) was a famous Jesuit scholar and author of the encyclopedia Disinquisitionum Magicarum, in many ways the most complete of all the works on witchcraft...." (Robbins, The Encyclopedia of Witchcraft and Demonology, 1951) The Disinquisitionum seems to be divided into six main parts, one of which concerns prophecy and divination, which would certainly go well with the whole Imaginos story. Or is 'Del Rio' just a name that someone pulled out of a hat?

Message-ID: On recommendation from various postings I bought a copy of Space Metal by Star One from SpinADisk in Northampton for ?15 having to order it as its wasn't stocked. I liked the CD, its a sort of mixture of early Hawkwind and Deep Purple (2 of my favourite bands from the 70's) with powerful vocal harmonies and even snippets which sounded as though they came from War Of the Worlds. Overall a very likable CD if your into this sort of thing, and I would recommend it to anyone like minded. However, my main reason for buying it was for the Dave Brock featured Hawkwind melody I had heard about, mostly from postings on this group. But it didn't matter how many times I listened to it, or how many times I read the sleeve notes, I just could not find any hint whatsoever of such a medley. And then I heard about the bonus disk. I can only assume this is where the Dave Brock feature is. So can anyone help me. Having already bought the CD without bonus disk. How can the bonus disk be obtained? And why is there a version of Space Metal on sale without the bonus disk included anyway.

The fans were on their feet for the entire concert, from note one. Over two hours to pick from to make the DVD and we were all left exhausted. After the show, about 50 onliners went to the Winners Lounge and took on some special guests when Don and Sandy Roeser and Bobby Rondinelli came to partake in the celebration with us. All I gotta say is that this will be a special show to have. My favorite was Lips In The Hills and Astronomy. The show was shot in High Definition TV. There were 3 cameramen mobile and another working the Boom camera. The boom camera bit it briefly on Joan Crawford, so it's possible that for the DVD, it could end up on the cutting room floor. Other than that, though, it's anyone's guess what will make the cut. chuck From mail at ABRAHAMSI.FREESERVE.CO.UK Sat Jun 22 10:18:31 2002 From: mail at ABRAHAMSI.FREESERVE.CO.UK (Ian Abrahams) Date: Sat, 22 Jun 2002 15:18:31 +0100 Subject: HW: Cover Versions OFF Message-ID: Well, seems that Mel is no longer on the list, so this was his rather amusing Spencer Banks story for those of us old enough to remember or care about Timeslip: "Do you remember the bespectacled boy in 'Timeslip' ?

However,much as I would love to just exchange yours for a double, I don;t think the bosses here would like me doin that, so unless Spin thingy can have it back, then if ya still want a double, ya gotta fork out twice, I regret to say.

On recommendation from various postings I bought a copy of Space Metal by Star One from SpinADisk in Northampton for ?15 having to order it as its wasn't stocked. I liked the CD, its a sort of mixture of early Hawkwind and Deep Purple (2 of my favourite bands from the 70's) with powerful vocal harmonies and even snippets which sounded as though they came from War Of the Worlds. Overall a very likable CD if your into this sort of thing, and I would recommend it to anyone like minded. However, my main reason for buying it was for the Dave Brock featured Hawkwind melody I had heard about, mostly from postings on this group. But it didn't matter how many times I listened to it, or how many times I read the sleeve notes, I just could not find any hint whatsoever of such a medley. And then I heard about the bonus disk. I can only assume this is where the Dave Brock feature is. So can anyone help me. Having already bought the CD without bonus disk. How can the bonus disk be obtained? And why is there a version of Space Metal on sale without the bonus disk included anyway.

That's not good news about Huw. On the other hand, it suggests that they're keen on getting it done quickly because otherwise presumably he'd have time to heal up. Hope he'll be all right by mid-next month. Good to hear Moorcock's cool not that Doug Smith is out of the picture, although I still don't think Marion is exactly a full substitute (and somebody's *got* to buy Doug's portion of EBS... ) But anyway. > They played the Hawkwind medley that Dave sang on for that Star One cd. It > sounded really good. I would like to hear the rest of the disc. If the rest > of the cd is anywhere as good as the medley, then it is probably fantastic. > Has anyone heard the whole disc? Yes. The medley's different to the rest in terms of, I don't know, it has more grit and less pretention, though not much less. There's a forgettable version of `Space Oddity' on the bonus disc too but otherwise it's pretty consistent, overblown power metal with masses of synth content. Most of the instruments are by the boy Arjen, who can't play as well as he thinks he can, I think, but there are some guest soloists who turn out plenty of yer power-metal widdling, including synth-guitar duels and stuff like that. Terribly terribly I-would-love-to-think-it's-tongue- in-cheek-but-I-don't-think-it-is. Like Rainbow with the teeth removed and extra hair. But no, hang on, I'm not being quite fair. Once you allow for the fact that it's decidedly operatic in aspiration and that though Arjen may think it's heavy I own some Electric Wizard albums that cause me to differ from him on this, it's (hush, look the other way) actually quite *good* in places. Some effective use of harmonies, some quite good pieces of music, lyrics not always terrible (I mean, they beat John Shirley's but you can tell Arjen doesn't have a very good grasp of what's a hideous cliche or skull-numbingly naif), and of course there's the fun of working out what films he's using. It's by and large obvious if you've seen them and in some cases even if you haven't, which means that if like me you hadn't seen any Blake's Seven you must avoid hearing the lyrics so as not to have the plot entirely exposed to you. So, yes, it's terribly cheesy but I can't actually slag it off as fully as my sense of taste tells me I should because parts of it are really quite fun. The packaging is gorgeous. The music manages to stick in my brain so I can't say it's forgettable. The medley is lots of fun, but the actual album is no disgrace even if it's no _Imaginos_ either.

Maybe >there's been some change of publisher or something and Amazon's >information is up to its usual standard? I would suspect that those are two completely different books. There's a whole series of 'In His/Her/Their Own Words' books (I have the George Clinton/P-Funk one, and the Beach Boys one is hilarious because a good chunk of it consists of the band members slagging each other) that appear to be compiled from a variety of miscellaneous interview sources. They seem to have been thrown together pretty quickly, but since they consist 100% of primary sources, they're usually much better than a "quickie" bio (especially when the subject gives good interview, as Lemmy usually does). -Doug jasret at mindspring.com From starfield at SUPANET.COM Tue Jun 25 16:09:32 2002 From: starfield at SUPANET.COM (Captain Bl@ck) Date: Tue, 25 Jun 2002 21:09:32 +0100 Subject: HW: Lemmy Message-ID: The 'Lemmy In His Own Words' book is basically a collection of old interviews that have been published in the music press.

Thing is, that those Collector Series sets were marketed on the high street, whether "realistically releasable" or not, they were in HMV. So there's the usual argument about someone who goes and looks for Hawkwind, buys _Yuri Gagarin_ or _Glastonbury 1990_ and never looks at it again. They weren't marked as being sub-standard or anything, whereas it seems clear Tull know the difference. I don't blame HW for it so much as I blame Voiceprint. The stuff that HW has sold privately (like _Hawkwind 1997_) has been much better quality. On the other hand Dave gave them the tapes and presumably sanctioned the distribution. There is a difference here between fan product and high-street product. > if > you want "perfection", go listen to Steely Dan or something!

For this reason, the camp will be limited to 1000 and to holders of Hawkwind passports. 1) Tickets will cost ?50 which will include 3 nights camping 2) Children under 12 will be admitted free, when accompanied by ticket holders. (I.D. may be required for children who look older) 3) Passport holders may buy tickets for friends and family, these will be called visa tickets and will only be valid if accompanied by a passport holder. 4) Passport holders who have already registered an interest will be given priority with regard to ticket purchase. The rest of the tickets will be issued on a first come first served basis and will be strictly limited to 1000. There will be absolutely NO tickets on sale at the gate of the camp. 5) Cheques for tickets to be made out to J. Moore. 6) Please send applications for tickets to: PO Box 28, Honiton, East Devon, ENGLAND EX14 8AP 7) Please enclose your Hawkwind passport number. 8) Please mark the outside of the envelope Summer Camp. 9) For security reasons, the exact location of the site will not be released until nearer the date.

They weren't marked as being sub-standard or anything, whereas it >seems clear Tull know the difference. Admittedly, 'Yuri Gagarin' lacks the necessary caveat. But to me, "Collectors Series" sounds more than sufficient (see my perception of "collector", below). Perhaps "For Collectors ONLY" (or "Bootleg", per Aerosmith, Dylan, etc.) might be more accurate. But I think they're sufficiently marked for someone to figure out what's a "regular" live album (i.e. 'Yule Ritual') and what's for the more hardcore fan ... > I don't blame HW for it so much as I blame Voiceprint. Why would you blame Voiceprint? Their only alternative would be to refuse to release whatever material is deemed "sub-standard" (which would probably be in violation of whatever agreement they have with Hawkwind/Dave, unless there are legal reasons to not release it, as I assume is the case with Weird 6, for instance), in which case Hawkwind fans (at least me!) would be blaming Voiceprint for NOT making the material available. It's a lose-lose situation for them (which makes me feel sorry for Voiceprint, really; they've been very much damned-if-they-do, damned-if-they-don't on this list, while I think they've been doing an EXCELLENT job with not just Hawkwind, but many other great artists). And who would be the one to make the judgement call of what's deemed "sub-standard"? This exchange is certainly evidence that differences of opinion among Hawkwind fans are far too vast for any one person to make that decision ;^). >The stuff that HW has sold privately (like _Hawkwind 1997_) >has been much better quality. But that one IS a Voiceprint release! (Catalog# HAWKVP 999) It's just the only Hawk/Voiceprint release that *isn't* distributed (only manufactured) by Voiceprint. And certainly 'Yule Ritual' and the recent 'Nottingham 1990' are superb sound quality (well, the Simon-less half of '1990' is superb sound quality, the Nottingham/Live Legends half is very, very good - way better than either Complete '79 or '82 IMO - but not quite superb). Are you suggesting that something like 'Glastonbury 90' should be sold *only* by the band, and not be available in stores ("high street")? That would A) make it more difficult for the fans (especially overseas) to obtain the release, and B) make a lot more work for Dave/Kris/whoever, that actually has to pack and post all the orders from fans (or they'd have to pay someone to do it ... and I have a feeling that Ian Anderson is much better equipped for this than Dave). I personally would rather see (even though it's none of MY business!) Dave spending time playing guitar, writing songs, working on stage set ideas, or even just hanging out on the farm, than filling CD orders. Also, removing the releases from normal distribution channels would mean that a whole lot fewer copies would be sold, which would presumably not be in the band's and label's best interest. >On the other hand Dave gave them the tapes and presumably >sanctioned the distribution. If that wasn't the case, they'd be bootlegs, right? (Or at least "questionable"/"non-official" ala 'Yuri Gagarin'.) >There is a difference here between fan >product and high-street product. ... which is why they say "Collectors Series". At least in my experience, a "collector" (to say nothing of a "kollektor"!) is a good deal more hardcore than the average "fan". >> if you want "perfection", go listen to ... one of >> those "live" albums where all the guitar parts were re-recorded by a >> session player in the studio. Jeez!) > > Weren't a fair few bits of _Space Ritual_ re-recorded in the >studio? :-) Possibly some (have we ever had firm evidence on this, besides good guesses by people with good ears? It's certainly possible, although I also think it's possible that there are some areas where two guitar parts can be heard because an edit is being cross-faded, so the guitar from part 1 can be heard fading out while the guitar from part 2 is fading in) ... but certainly nothing like live albums by Thin Lizzy (according to producer Tony Visconti, all of the lead vocals & bass, and most of the guitars, are studio overdubs), Kiss (on which Ace's guitar parts are played by a session musician), the Stones, etc. And 'Space Ritual II' (which would presumably have NOT been re-recorded/overdubbed/augmented) sounds pretty good to these (admittedly tin) ears ... ;^) Sorry if I'm being argumentive (not my intent! I enjoy the discussion - thanks, Jon!) ... it's just that when I consider the alternatives, I don't see anything that's more workable than the way the Collector Series is already distributed/marketed, since selling them direct instead of through stores would be a lose-lose-lose situation (fans can't get 'em - band has to do more work to sell 'em - label doesn't sell as many copies). -Doug jasret at mindspring.com P.S.

Since I'm coming from the USA, I can't very well bring a tent with me (not that I really want to), so I'm hoping a hotel or something is very nearby. Also I wanted to ask UK residents whether they think I'll be able to get to the festival site via public transportation of some sort, or whether I will need to rent a car or something. I am arriving in London (Heathrow) but will need to get to the Exeter area where the show is happening. It seems a train will take me that far, but what's the likelihood of catching further transport to and from the actual festival site?

Date: Thu, 27 Jun 2002 14:54:33 -0400 Subject: /Fest tickets Message-ID: I'm camping, bringing a tent from the USA but relying on UK Hawkfans friends to supply some of the other necessary equipment like camp stove etc.. There will probably be bed-and-breakfast accommodation available in the surrounding area, I know some people are doing this in preference to camping. It's cheap (?15 / $22 a night should be the max) but there is a potential problem with transport from the B&B to the festival site. Train to Exeter is certainly feasible, after that you can almost certainly get another train to Axminster...or you could get a taxi from either train station to the festival site, wherever it's going to be. Taxis can be found outside train stations. Since Axminster and Exeter are about 25 miles apart I assume it will be no more than 12 miles to the festival site from either place. This would put the taxi fare in the region of ?10 - ?15 I guess, say $15 to $23. Buses are cheaper but scarcer, especially in rural areas, and should not be relied upon.

Its 275 Portobello Road, London, Nearest tube Ladbroke Grove (about quarter of a mile), or possibly Notting Hill Gate on the central line (about a mile away). In the late 1970s the name changed from "Mountain Grill" to "George's Fish Bar", and was called that until at least the early 1990s. But when I went back last month it's now called "George's Famous Mountain Grill", or something very similar. But the front of the cafe still looks the same as the photos in HOTMG. Basically it's at one end of the 'world famous' Portobello Road, so as well as taking shedloads of wedge for HW and related albums and CDs from the many shops nearby (and there are quite a few), you can also pick that piece of rare china you've always been after. And the fish and chips are still pretty good too (always have been).

That should so very much be done. Well I remember the trouble we used to have preventing Carl Anderson jamming on that theme for anything less than twenty minutes. Only the fact that his bass is still in the States and he's not prevents us so suffering now. But anyway. I've always reckoned the most obvious Hawkwind song that the band didn't write was Black Sabbath's `Into The Void' and that's what I'd pick. Unless by some chance `Born To Go' was in the setlist because you don't need both together.

The other one is `Cymbaline', and it's certainly spacier than the Floyd version. There's something very perfect about the peace and timing of the Floyd version that I don't think the HW version gets as near, but it makes a lot more of the lyrics and eerieness.
