Yes, I would agree that Starfield do not fit the original criteria but
"rules were made to be broken".

The thing I found of particular interest is the fact that there were only a
few other bands that stuck out like - dare I say it - dogs balls, Pink Floyd
being the most noticeable. The other artists that were mentioned were from
every era in the past 50 years of music & included Buck's Fizz, couldn't
resist that.

It shows a diverse range of music that in many ways are reflected in the
works of Hawkwind - ballads, heavy metal, light rock & pop, stirring
primitive rhythms, orchestral movements, blues, pure electronic, poetry,
acoustic (unplugged - little licence here) melodies, dance (well almost).

This is what I like about the Hawks, you can go to one band & find an album,
or song, that will fit any or every mood you are in - one band that
throughout history has played it all & after 30+ years can still bring me to
tears while completely blowing me away.
