In this message...  Here is an updated version of the posting we made
earlier today, with some additional text detail and the Cover Art for the
pending release of 'Hawkwind at the BBC-1972 Double Disc Set...

HAWKWIND: HAWKWIND AT THE BBC-1972 (2CD - Mono+Stereo Mixes & Sessions -
Stock # T1281594) 2CD £13.99
Legendary space-rock outfit Hawkwind have maintained an extremely loyal fan
base and amassed 14 Top-40 albums throughout the 5 decades they've been
active. Their re-issues continue to sell well, with the last 'live' album
re-issued on EMI - 2007's 'Space Ritual' - selling 5k units OTC to date.
'Hawkwind At The BBC-1972' captures the band just after the surprise of the
UK no. 3 hit single in July with the classic: 'Silver Machine', and before
their 'live' experience: 'Space Ritual' which was recorded on tour later
that same year.
Whilst the bulk of this Double CD release is made up of the 'live' set
recorded for the BBC In Concert programme, it opens with a previously
unreleased session recorded for Johnnie Walker featuring a shortened version
of the 'Doremi Fasol Latido' album classic: 'Brainstorm' and a version of
the then hit single: 'Silver Machine', featuring Lemmy on vocals, as per the
single.
The In Concert itself, a hypnotic continuous performance, is presented in
both MONO and STEREO versions. The Mono version was previously released by
Windsong on CD in 1991 and has now been Remastered and Re-Indexed to include
all of the pieces originally performed, and the concert itself in its
entirety.
The Stereo version has long been in the domain of the bootleggers as an
off-air recording known the as "Broadcast" version. This mix was in fact
distributed by the BBC for broadcast internationally and features an edited:
'Brainstorm', missing approximately 4 minutes from the front of the song, a
shorter: 'Welcome To The Future' and 'Electronic No. 1' (not indexed on the
previous CD release), but a longer 'Countdown' introduction. Officially
released for the first time, apart from being in Stereo, the sound quality
is superior to the Mono version and the mix is generally more exciting.
Whilst the CD racks and on-line listings are full of unofficial and poor
Hawkwind 'live' recordings, this set is a prime chunk of space rock from the
band at the peak of their powers and is an essential addition to the band's
huge discography.
