I'd definitely concur with this.

Looking at the lists for the gigs, tracks not already on Live '79 which
could be used are:

Sonic Attack
New Jerusalem
PXR5
Silver Machine
Prelude/Who's Gonna Win The War?
World of Tiers
Levitation

Urban Guerilla and Phenomenon of Luminosity have already appeared on CD
elsewhere but "Waiting For Nati" from the 1980 tour could also be
incorporated on such an album.

Yep, there are a few tracks from demo tapes that haven't been released.

The various other Hawkwind tracks which aren't on CD are:

Star Song   (title unknown)                                    Wishart
The Blackening Rabbit                                          Brock?
The Joker Of The Universe                                      Moorcock
The Timeship Will Not Sail Again                               Moorcock
Your Secret's Safe With Me                                     Wishart
Time For Sale                                                  Calvert?
Astronauts                                                     Ashley?
Note From A Cold Planet                                        Moorcock
The Welcoming Hands Of Space                                   Ashley?
They've Got Your Number                                        Langton
Mark Of Cain                                                   Langton
Ode To A Crystal Set                                           Calvert
Time Of                                                        Brock?
My Armour's Killing Me                                         Moorcock
Raping Robots In The Street                                    Brock

Obviously it might be difficult to get the rights to release these but
it certainly would be a worthwhile project to get at least some of them out.

Yeah, I guess this one isn't too important.
