The third album from Hawkwind, and one in which it seems like the group are really beginning to find their groove – maybe in part because Lemmy's in the lineup here, giving them some rudimentary bass parts that seem to push the boundaries even more – while all the spacey sounds and cool production elements of the previous two records seem to get even turned up more in the mix as well! This is definitely space rock of the finest pedigree – a group who are able to use electronics and moogy elements in all the right ways, while still also serving up a guitar-driven sound that's perfectly in a space between prog and hard rock – yet very different than most of the mainstream in both! Titles include "Time We Left This World Today", "The Watcher", "Brainstorm", "Space Is Deep", "Lord Of Light", and "Down Through The Night". LP, Vinyl record album
A mindblowing album, and a record that was an instant classic from the moment it was released – and then has gone on to become even more legendary over the years! The set virtually invented the genre of space rock – but has also touched on the worlds of prog, Krautrock, and even hard rock and metal with everything that's going on inside – lots of tracks that definitely live up to the space promise of the title, but which also find a way to jam as well – mixing heady guitar lines with cool electronics and effects – and even a bit of alto and flute from the group's great Nik Turner! The whole thing's fantastic – essential listening throughout – and titles include "Adjust Me", "Children Of The Sun", "Master Of The Universe", "We Took The Wrong Step Years Ago", "You Know You're Only Dreaming", and the 15 minute classic "You Shouldn't Do That". LP, Vinyl record album
A seminal set from Hawkwind – a record that virtually defines the term "space rock", and which went on to create a whole genre unto itself! The live setting is perfect for the group – as they open up on long tracks that blend together odd touches, sci fi elements, and some mighty heavy rock lines too – all with some trippy vocals that really send things over the top! Lemmy's a mad genius at this point – and the record's got a ballsy power that's quite different from more prog-based groups who travel down similar paths, but never with ferocity like this. Titles include "Earth Calling", "Born To Go", "Down Through The Night", "The Awakening", "Upside Down", "10 Seconds Of Forever", "Brainstorm", "Seven By Seven", "Sonic Attack", Welcome To The Future", "You Shouldn't Do That", "Time We Left This World Today", and "Master Of The Universe". LP, Vinyl record album
