Hawkwind

is "warrior at the edge of time" the only one of their 1970s albums not to get the remastered & bonus tracks treatment? what's up with that?

IIRC there's some copyright difficulty with it, or some problems with who owns the master tapes, I forget the specific details (he said, helpfully)

the CD I have (DOJO label) appears to be a somewhat different mix to the vinyl - I have a cassette tape I made off of my old 12", and the guitars on "assault & battery" seem much louder in the mix. Can anyone confirm/deny this?

^^^^^^^^ I think this is my favourite album of theirs. It's certainly the one I still listen to the most.

Lives of great men all remind us
We may make our lives sublime
And departing leave behind us
Footprints in the sands of time

the snow snake hissed
and the world turned round
yhe snow snake grinned
in his fine cold sin

we are the warriors at the edge of time, and we are tired of making lunch.

I've got the album with that on. It's in a medley with a couple of other things though (of course).

It's on this one, which has a bunch of good stuff on it.

the live "you'd better believe it" on hall of the mountain grill rules. does anyone know, does it come from the same concert as space ritual?

― reggie (qualmsley), Friday, 6 May 2011 20:39 (2 years ago) Permalink

I don't think any Hall made it to Space Ritual (it was recorded during '72 for the Doremi Fasol Latido tour, I think, and Hall didn't come out until '74.)

― Fig On A Plate Cart (Alex in SF), Friday, 6 May 2011 21:13 (2 years ago) Permalink

Same venue as a good chunk of Space Ritual (Edmonton Sundown) but recorded in Jan 74. The 1999 Party set is from this tour as well and absolutely smokes.

thanks for the tip. looks like there are chicago auditorium shows available from that tour. as long as i'm asking stupid questions, is there a study version of "you'd better believe it"?

― reggie (qualmsley), Friday, 6 May 2011 22:18 (2 years ago) Permalink

There is apparently...... another new album!!

― TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Tuesday, 1 May 2012 22:36 (1 year ago) Permalink

... and it's actually pretty good! I honestly haven't kept up with them at all, I've only had the classic 70s run of stuff. But this is way better than I would have expected Hawkwind circa 2012 to sound.
