>For the Codex etc it would be good to find out where the tracks on "Nova

>"Spirit of the Age", wgich IMHO is the best on the album almost
>certainly comes from the US 1995 tour, probably the first Canadian gig.
>"Born To Go" sounds like it might be 1984.
>
>"Aliens", "Sputnik Stan" and "Silver Machine" could be from either US or
>UK in '95. Did they play SM in the US?
>
>Is "Nova Drive" actually a Hawkwind track? I don't recognise it unless
>it's a demo I don't have. Maybe the creator of the CD slipped in a track
>by his own band?

>"Terra Mystica" is presumably a staight copy from the 4-CD box set.
>"Damage of Life" may be similarly copied from the TRavellers Aid album.
>"Magnu" sounds like it might be from 1986 but possibly 1985. It's very
>hard to guess where "Paradox" or "Dead Dreams" came from.

>If anyone knows the creator of the CD (we won't inquire too closely)
