Phew, after reading this list for the past 6 mths or so I thought I wasthe only one who liked any HW post 1979.

I too feel Xenon Codex was extremely underrated, and I'm gonna completely stick my neck out know and guide your thoughts to Distant Horizons.

 What a quality ablum drawing togther many of the themes raised in Space Bandits but reviving some of the Choose your Masques/ Leviatation style of playing. 

Theres more 'cos this is not just a fall back  Album reflecting on past glories the title track Distant Horizons could quite easily feel at home in a nightclub, and IMHO should have been released as a single to raise Hawk awareness. Personally though Reptoid Vision is my favourite track a good old fashion HW rock track.
