They are well worth it, they seem to hit their second wind post 2005. Don't know where it was between 1980 -2005 however.

There's so many good grooves and stuff here but I feel like a lot of it just gets lost in noise - a new remaster would be awesome, just got a hold of the 90s digipak one and it's a bit outdated now. Also Adjust Me feels like 5 minutes of an intro to a song and Children of the Sun feels like it fades out halfway through as it they ran out of space on the disc which annoy me :/



Still, tracks 1, 3 and 4 almost completely make up for it

He actually loves this album, says it's the best space rock album ever or somet, so he better get in here

Is he still going through King Crimson or has he done all of them now?

I dunno, I only knew that he did ItCotCK and Red.

He did do Warrior on the Edge though

Atrocious album.

Weak psychedelic spew that fails to conjure up any feelings of being out there in space.

I can't think of a single memorable moment on this entire album. No melodies, rubbish vocals, just a mess...

There are much better psychedelic albums and much better albums 'out there' period.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.





Even though you wouldn't know space rock if it dropped an asteroid on your head.

Nope, I'm pretty sure Hawkwind are the top dogs when it comes to space rock. Just ask space overlord Oderus Urungus when he's not eating out Cristina Scabbia or something.

Space rock becomes preeminent in Hawkwind with this album. It is true that most of the songs don’t specifically deal with science fiction and space travel (outer and inner), but the artwork and notes contained within leave no doubt where this band is going. Master of The Universe has a great riff and a theme that has been used in comics, cartoons, Bonfire of the Vanities and car commercials. You Know Your Only Dreaming would crop up again on several future live albums –it seems to become dreamier and spacier with each outing. One of my favorite versions of this song is on the 1974 Live 1999 album –complete with Simon House’s mellotron for an extra spacey mood. Children of the Sun works ok, but Nik is a pretty green singer on this one still –this would have fit fine on their debut album. Shouldn’t Do That will have a long life as a concert staple, but I find it too repetitive and too long. Later incarnations trim the length quite a bit.

The bonus tracks are like a preview of The Space Ritual coming soon. Bob Calvert makes his presence felt through his excellent lyrics and effective vocal delivery (not pretty –but always entertaining). Was Silver Machine ever used to sell cars? If not it should have been. This song was a huge hit in Britain but those of us growing up can be excused if we never heard on release. It never got the classic rock overkill treatment in the US which I do appreciate.

Great album, I like the contrast between full fledged space rock delirium and folky bonfire atmosphere...
