What's the most gonzo Hawkwind Live album you've heard? Only live Wind I have is the full peak period 1972 Greasy Truckers Party set, where they almost verge on sounding like modern-day Acid Mothers Temple. I'd imagine that might be down to the wonderfully bad recording- the more bootleggier the quality, the more likely it'll sound like a scuzzed up noise rock record (see Live at the Gymnasium V.U). Would be interested in hearing more, but nothing clean. Dirty only, please!

Here's a version of You Shouldn't Do That from that performance.


As you're no doubt aware, there are boatloads of live Hawkwind recordings about and, like you, I particularly like the gonzo outbursts. Greasy Truckers is a particularly fine example, hard to top. That being said, I'd heartily recommend "Live @ Youth Centre, Potters Bar 16 Oct '71". It sounds like it was recorded in a toilet and is violently psychedelic....ultraviolence. The line up on this monster is Calvert, Brock, Turner, Ollis, Dikmik, Lemmy and Del Detmar.

Sugarmegs have a version:
