Hawkwind - Space Ritual (remastered). Dble CD, £13.00 (EMI - 7243 5 30032 2) The legendary double album document of hawkwind's mind frying 1972 Space Ritual tour. Now remastered and housed in a jewel box with the original packaging designs this is the bible for fans of space rock. Three bonus tracks and the best sound ever! Blast Off! Hawkwind - Space Ritual Sundown Deluxe Edition. CD Box Set, £15.00 (Cleopatra - CLP1239) Easily the best hawkwind item since the multi fold digi paks from a EMI a few years back, this great CD documents the whole 1972 Brixton show in it's entirety, capturing the final night of the tour (from which some of the Space Ritual album was lifted) and all it's manic glory. The set includes some lavish packaging with a four fold digi-pak with unpublished 1972 photos on a fold out poster, a full colour ritual poster and a black & silver clam shell box. Over 63 minutes of digitally remastered brain damage with great sound quality. Very, very limited so be quick!

What happened there? I answered, it was there, then it wasn’t. Where’d it go? I’ll try again. Thanks Seth, for the review and the info. The Robert Calvert thing has bothered me for a while. According to this link it never happened www.hawkwindmuseum.co.uk/thetourthatneverwas.htm but I remember it did. Possibly thinking about it now there was no actual live music. I remember lots of english eccentric overacting, kind of hippy amateur dramatics. Maybe they’d booked the theatre, couldn’t get it together to do the proper show and just tried to wing it. Thing is I kept a gig diary in the seventies but I didn’t list this one and I’m thinking that being a pedantic lttle sod I left it out because it was “theatre” and not strictly “a gig”. The Empire Pool gig - I was fourteen and already a Man fan so I was there for Deke, The Pink Fairies were Larry Wallace, Duncan Sanderson, Russell Hunter, and Twink I think but not Paul Rudolph unfortunately. Hawkwind were magnificent. I should remember Calvert dubbing Lemmy but I don’t. We probably had to leave early to get the last train home. I still have loads of little black and silver badges and an International Times/programme.

The sound isn't half the size of the re-ish Ditto the original vinyl on 'American Phonograph" Cleopatra or Purple Pyramid are the ones Valve, What I would give to have been at either of those shows for 30 seconds...
