I've got one minor quibble, mind. It's a real shame that the rights issue with Warrior On The Edge Of Time doesn't allow for it to be compiled as part of this collection as it rightly and correctly deserves.
Absolutely.
Do you know why they refer to "Xin Search of Space" throughout the booklet?
because that's what it says on the cover

why it says that is another matter, nothing much on google, maybe it's just a layout thing to balance it up, damn fine cover though
edit- even the Sethman doesn't know, so how can we mere mortals find out
''And another thing: why does the sleeve clearly exhibit the true title of the album -- rendered within QUOTES, no less -- as “X In Search Of Space” although on the spine and label of the original album it is without the “X”, as Hawkwind’s graphic cartographer Barney Bubbles had so lovingly intended? I believe it was a typographic error, but perhaps Nik Turner’s 1978 solo album, “Xinittoday” for which Bubbles also created the sleeve was so named to compensate for the mysterious “X” omission.)''
