Definitely - this is one of the 'must haves' of any Hawkwind collection.
There's a different version of "Kings of Speed" on the Griffin CD
which matches better with the album (the original track jars a bit
in style and speed with the rest) but don't let that put you off.
This album is the classic 1974 lineup which had already moved a long way
from their original Space Rock sound.  The Hawkwind that might have been
had Lemmy stayed?   Who knows.
