Huw Rejoins

Hi

It's the same as with Doctor Who (a particular TV favourite of mine). There
were some great stories, & there were some crappy stories. Sometimes the
actors were brilliant, sometimes embarrassing to watch. Tom Baker (the most
well known) in particular became annoying after a few years, when he started
sending the role up! But know matter how bad it sometimes became, I stayed
with it, as I had faith in it.

Hawkwind have also went through some low points, but I know that it's only
temporary. I found albums like Xenon CodeX & Black Sword to be drifting into
the realms of your average heavy metal band, yet there was material within
those albums (such as Sword of the East for one) that showed they still had
what it takes.
