According to the gig personnel list that's floating around (one copy found
at http://www.pcmicro.com.au/~Sonique/Hawkwind/files/gigs.txt), the Greasy
Truckers gig (London Roundhouse 13.02.72 Sun BR/KI/TU/DI/LE/DE/CA) was
Simon King's third gig with Hawkwind (the first two were 11.02.72 and
12.02.72 - the 11.02.72 gig at New Cross Goldsmith College is listed as
having both Terry Ollis and Simon King drumming).

The gig setlist
(http://www.pcmicro.com.au/~Sonique/Hawkwind/files/tracks.txt) lists the
following for this gig:
13.02.72, LONDON, ROUNDHOUSE, 30/10
master of the universe / born to go / make what you can / silver
machine / welcome

Is "Make What You Can" the jam that closes out "Born To Go"?  Does anyone
have any idea if this release will include anything that wasn't previously
released on 'Greasy Truckers' (the first 2 or 3 tracks) and 'Glastonbury
Fayre' (the last 2 tracks)?  Or did Hawkwind only have 30 minutes to play
that night, given the power outage, etc.?

dadgummit, once more i must be mulish in the face of someone's hard
copy...sigh...
i'll maintain it's ollis, not king. although it's clearly king on "make what
you can".
c'mon, drummers in the audience, does it >sound< like king on that uneven,
flailing version  of 'born to go' compared to the 'space ritual' version?
does it >sound< like king on 'silver machine' compared to, for instance, the
BBC 72 cd version?

king may have joined the ranks  around this time, and boy would i love to
find a tape of a gig w/both king and ollis drumming, but ollis was still
around that may or june, judging from audience tapes i've got.

jill, sonique, mr parr, anyone === am i truly alone in believing this? cant
you just listen and tell the difference?

aw, nertz...
