And "Master of the Universe", too, on a different album.  I forget which
one; I don't own any of their albums because, unfortunately, except for
their Hawkwind covers, they sorta sucked.  Too bad, 'cause I love Dez-era
Black Flag (I'd rather hear him sing than Henry!) and the Screamers (the
band synth/bass-player Paul Roessler was previously in - definitely worth
checking out for fans of Chrome, Metal Urbain, and other 70s space-punk
bands).

Not to mention their full cover of "Orgone Accumulator" that was on one of
their very first records.

Who has the complete tracklist for the 'Hawkwind Covers All' project to
forward to the list?

(who has recently been proliferating BÖC covers via Primordial Undermind's
unplugged [2 acoustic guitars, violin, electric bass] "Flaming Telepaths",
due out on next album, and by Dogbreath's live rendition of "Dominance and
Submission" last weekend, complete with smoke & laser!)
