Great promo - Hawkwind will be cool agian, I will be right and everyone else will be proved wrong!
They were on that car diving advert recently too.
Master of the Universe I think?
Found it:
Works really well too.
'If no wheels are available metal, not organic, limbs should be employed whenever practical!!'
Always had a softspot for Hawkwind. One of my fave tracks (Urban Guerilla):
Your android replica is playing up again.... It's no joke.
I miss Bob Calvert.
Not half the band without him.
Bob Calvert was a total genius. I saw him play with ICU a few times and he was amazing live. Captain Lockheed was just a masterpiece, prob. the best 'concept' album ever, and definitely the best concept album with Lemmy playing on it.
I'm sorry, Hawkwind have never NOT been cool! 😉
Silver Machine's my favourite Hawkwind track. Saw them years ago in Bath, must have been around '75, probably the [i]Warrior On The Edge Of Time[/i] tour, because Stacia was with them, and she left in '76. Disappointed she didn't get 'em out for the lads, though. 🙁
Aah, Hawkwind, those were the days.....
Worked with 'em a few times in the '80's, great bunch of folks.
Saw them live many, many times too.
Can you elaborate on working with them Pinkster?
Was one of the 'noizeboyz' for a few years at various venues around the country.
Did a little bit of lighting too but sound was my speciality
Saw them back in 1991 or 1992. I think. Can't remember much of the gig 🙂
First saw them in 78 , Lemmy came on and sang Silver Machine .I was a very happy 15yr old 8)
The first live gig I went to 🙂
That's pretty cool Pinkster!
I remember my mum looking up from her knitting and asking "why are they singing about a sewing machine"?
