New Live Hawkwind Recording (Ha Ha)

[ANDREW GARIBALDI]

I have to chip in here.
CD Services WILL have this in stock before the gig so we are told and so it
will be in the catalogue next week.
However, I hear from people I am in contact with that there is some murky
politics going on right now between the Brock and Turner camps which I don't
want to get involved with in any way, shape or form.
CDS have been offered a sales stand at the Tuner all-dayer thing, which we
are considering but have NOT confirmed, and are also considering a stand at
the real Hawkwind's Canterbury gig, trying to treat all this from a
retailer's point of view only (as UK outlet for all things space-rock and
psych) without taking sides. We do not want to be a 'pig in the middle' of
anything that may or may not be 'in dispute'..
