If they lost the spoken word segments then it would be perfection imho.
Nah the spoken word bits are an important part of the whole vibe of it imo.

Crazy talk upthread, the spoken word parts (with wibbly electronic noises) are fucking ace!

Yeah you guys are probably right it's just I've been spinning it over and over while playing Dark Souls so I'll be rocking out for a solid 30-45 minutes and then "Sonic Attack" happens and suddenly what was once righteous droney space metal is a guy talking about "You will feel the need to vomit" and "There will be bleeing from orifices". Which I guess is probably appropriate for Dark Souls but whatevs.
And yes Hawkwind can do whatever the hell they want, obviously.

i once played "sonic attack" in its entirety at a fairly large rave in the early 90s. many years later a guy came up to me and told me the experience had been so brain shattering and traumatic that he ended the night in a psychiatric unit. oops!

When I interviewed Lemmy a few years ago, he told me they used to lock people in at their shows.
