Very different from PT, more crimson, with more of a jazz influenced, and a lot more piano and nice orchestral arrangements. The vocals, as always are outstanding, and, of course, the guitar work is real nice too, more acoustic than metal, and I don't think people will compare this to the Floyd, at all. We give it 2 thumbs up, a must have from proggers, perhaps Mr. Wilson's finest. Best wishes to everyone on the forum, I know, I've been scarce. Today is a high stress day, because I need to get Kosh's blood sugar levels checked for diabetes, please send positive vibes. I'm not much of a reviewer, if you like all the contrasts and mood changes Steven Wilson can take you through you'll like Grace For Drowning. I hope this is helpful.

If Joie was playing I would probably go, I know he has guested on and off with more recnet lineups. I'd be interested to see reviews of the tour, and of the new album. I didn't like the last 2 albums at all. On 10/18/2011 9:46 AM, gary shindler wrote: > Hmmmm, I could actually attend that in Kansas City.

(pause for breath) (geese firmly NOT recommended, they do love to chase you and try to bite you) I brought home a small mallard duck from the local creek. tjhis guy was a little "different", other than not being white and being so gentle and quiet. I could take him and "launch him into the air", and every single time without fail he would fly a loop around the street we lived on and fly right back into my arms. When we had to get rid of the ducks and geese, the mallard went with them, to some people the parents knew out in the country. It wasn't a week when we heard they were all killed by wolves. I always wondered if MAYBE the mallard got away, but I doubt it...he (or she) only seemed to fly when I launched him (or her) Just look at what Mary's done--- I think I have to go cry On 10/19/11, mike coleman wrote: > On 10/19/11, mary ann sullivan wrote: >> Hi John, and friends, >> sorry, I'm way off topic here, but Kosh doesn't have diabetes.

Cheers, Carl -- Carl Edlund Anderson http://www.carlaz.com/ From john.majka at GMAIL.COM Sat Oct 29 23:34:02 2011 From: john.majka at GMAIL.COM (John Majka) Date: Sat, 29 Oct 2011 23:34:02 -0400 Subject: All the Hawkwind we haven't been discussing Message-ID: As I have a few spare minutes, I thought I'd post regarding all the Hawkwind news that I've read little or nothing about lately on our list. 1) Huw Lloyd-Langton's tour of the USA. With the constraints of my job as a pharmacist, trying to see all the concerts I want to attend can be challenging at times, but I did manage to narrow the HLL USA tour down to the two or three closest locations to me, and then to further whittle those options down to just one: St. Louis, MO. I made the 4 and 1/2 hour drive from Indianapolis to St. Louis just with enough time to check into my hotel and head off to the venue a bit in advance of door opening. The show was at a place called Fubar (apparently primarily a metal bar) and I suspect the night's entertainment was little lightweight in comparison to what is usually featured. A tour bus was parked outside, and I managed to witness Huw entering the establishment. I had on a Hawkwind 40th anniversary tour shirt, and this got the attention of a fellow wearing a Gunslinger shirt, who turned out to be a gentleman named Chris who is the US tour manager for Gunslinger. We chatted quite a bit and shared HW stories. Before long, Tommy Grenas (this time playing with Brainticket) also joined in before we all sauntered inside. Chris and I managed to chat with Huw a bit during the opening band before he excused himself and took the stage. He played an acoustic set, all the details of which I won't remember, but he opened with "Shine a Light" from his Elegy album, and then went on to include Rocky Paths, a particularly good " Hurry on Sundown," " Solitary Mind Games" (with Joel from Brainticket adding some flute), "The Fifth Second of Forever" and a piece by perhaps the brother of Ray Davies (of the Kinks).... I didn't quite catch who Huw said had written it. Despite all the recent gossip that Huw is washed up as a guitar player, I'd like to take this opportunity to say that he played quite well and is back on the scene! It's good to see him performing again after a number of years of ill health. The only thing that could have pleased me more would have been to hear him play electric guitar. After Huw was Brainticket, who were the unexpected hit of the evening. They featured a female singer in spacy silver garb who was quite entrancing. During a quieter moment in one of their songs someone in the crowd shouted, "You are way too cool to be playing here!" Surely that was a sentiment shared by all! Last up was Nektar. I'm not a huge Nektar fan, but I was thrilled that they opened with "Tab in the Ocean," which is my favorite piece of music from them. Unable to contain my uber-nerd status as Hawkwind superfan, and just leave my idols to themselves, I had to approach Huw at the end of the show and ask him to sign the 30 or so albums and books and so on I had brought with me. I apologized for so imposing upon him, but he seemed genuinely interested that I had cared enough to amass this stuff. He told many amusing anecdotes regarding almost each and every album as he very kindly sympathized with my obsessive compulsiveness. I particularly remember he laughed about the back cover of Choose Your Masques, and told me that originally (in place of the masks seen therein) an artist had painted photo realistic likenesses of each band member, but that Dave had protested the finished protect, simply saying he "didn't like it." Huw explained that Dave was going through a mid-life crisis was self-conscious about seeing all those wrinkles so clearly reproduced! Huw was particularly interested in the Ian Abrahams book, which he said he had never seen before. He carefully wrote down the author's name and the title of the book to track down a copy for himself. We continued to chit chat until the club closed, and I headed back to my hotel. Never having met the man before, I was favorably impressed with his extreme kindness toward a total stranger. 2) Recent Huw releases For those who haven't been out of their caves in a while, Cleopatra have put out a HLL album called "Classical Guitar Tales" which is, as the title suggests, a collection of acoustic pieces of mainly classical fingerpicked acoustic guitar. It's a fine album, though some who might be expecting something more raucous could find it understated. I highly recommend the disc. There is another limited "Live at Gravesend" release which is both frustrating and comforting. The recording quality is no better than bootleg. I'd say it sounds like a single microphone stuck in a room to record this recent all-electric performance of an incarnation of the Huw Lloyd-Langton Group. Additionally, each disc of the 2 CD set is not indexed, but merely a single long track, which makes going to specific songs extremely annoying. The backing band is also completely amateurishly bland, as we are treated to drum fills that don't end at the right place and so on.... But having voiced all of these complaints, I have to celebrate the fact that Huw's electric guitar playing is glorious, putting all doubts regarding his abilities to rest. His leads are both creative and proficient throughout (even if the recording quality--or lack thereof--sometimes makes that fact hard to hear). I'm pleased to hear that he's opening for Hawkwind on their upcoming tour. I see no reason why he shouldn't be in the current lineup of the touring band, and on the next studio album, really. Huw is back on course! 3) Recent Hawkwind releases The "Parallel Universe" 3 CD set should be required for all fans of Hawkwind. Considering that we're talking about previously unreleased 70's Hawkwind studio material, you would think there would have been more discussion and excitement about this collection, but I've read almost nothing about it. Ignoring the material that can be found elsewhere, what we get is... the mono single versions (A and B sides) of the "Hurry on Sundown" single, an early and different version of "You Know You're Only Dreaming," an alternate version of "The Reason Is," a different mix of "Be Yourself," an unreleased instrumental jam called "Hog Farm," a different version of "Kiss of the Velvet Whip," a version of "Seven by Seven" with different vocals, an unedited version of "Brainbox Pollution," stellar studio versions of "It's So Easy" and "You'd Better Believe It" and an alternate take of "Wind of Change." Pristine, EMI quality. There is also "Leave No Star Unturned" which is taken from master tapes of the January 27, 1972 performance at the Cambridge Corn Exchange. The tapes are somewhat damaged and flawed, but still this is a very listenable performance of what would otherwise be an unavailable recording. For those accustomed to bootlegs with a less than perfect mix, this release is a revelation. For those who think "Bring Me the Head..." is an abomination, maybe you should proceed with caution. 4) Hawkwind Japanese Remasters These are the top of the heap in terms of sound quality and remastering. The discs themselves are the recent remasters pressed as High Material CDs. Supposedly the greater optical purity improves sound quality... and my own subjective opinion is that this is true. The packaging reproduces the original albums in gatefold cardboard sleeves with all the associated booklets etc. The 2nd CD sleeve for the "Quark Strangeness and Charm" set strangely reproduces the sleeve of the 1994 "Quark" EP including the back cover, which of course lists the 4 songs from that EP which are NOT on this disc. The 2nd disc of the Hawklords album reproduces the sleeve of the "25 Years" 12 inch single. The sleeves for the 2nd and 3rd discs of "Levitation" are reproductions of the two different "Who's Gonna Win the War?" 7 inch singles (Flicknife and Bronze). There are also 3 postcards included with this set. The sleeve for the 2nd disc of the "Sonic Attack" set reproduces the sleeve of the "Angels of Death" single. 5) Hawkwind vinyl remasters Back on Black has put out limited editions of the United Artists albums (minus Warrior and Roadhawks) as 180 gram colored vinyl reissues of the recent remasters. These things look and sound great, and they all have gatefold sleeves. The first album is now 2 LPs on blue vinyl, "In Search of Space" is 2 LPs on red vinyl, "Doremi" is 2 LPs on grey vinyl, Space Ritual comes in 2 volumes (the first containing 2 translucent blue LPs and the second containing 2 translucent yellow ones)--not to confuse the second volume of the first Space Ritual album with the later album called "Space Ritual Volume Two", "Hall of the Mountain Grill" is 2 yellow LPs, and "Masters of the Universe" is one clear vinyl LP. These are extremely nice releases, but don't perfectly reproduce all the packaging. "In Search of Space," for example, does not have the die-cut zipper sleeve or booklet. Still these are remarkable releases for the collector.

I've stopped collecting vinyl, but those reissues as you described them do sound nice. And I think that anyone on this list would enjoy Parallel Universe, the alternate versions are basically essential, the live Leave No Star Unturned, and I'd add also of great interest is the new Flicknife compilation CD Hawklords Friend and Relations, A New Dawn, which has lots of cool tracks with Robert Calvert, Hawklords (new Incarnation doing Robot live) some of Alan Davey and Jerry Rchards and Steve Swindells projects, Underground Zero, Spirits Burning (with Daevid Allen), Harvey Bainbridge, and a Simon House guest appearance and more. Plenty of good stuff on all three of these. -----Original Message----- From: John Majka To: BOC-L Sent: Sat, Oct 29, 2011 7:34 pm Subject: All the Hawkwind we haven't been discussing As I have a few spare minutes, I thought I'd post regarding all the Hawkwind news that I've read little or nothing about lately on our list. 1) Huw Lloyd-Langton's tour of the USA.

Still these are remarkable releases for the collector. John Majka
