True enough - though I think there are still copies around.    Or maybe
I'm thinking of the 12" vinyl which there seems to be copious quantities

possibly because it was released under 'Hawklords' rather than
'Hawkwind' and therefore falls in the greyish area when Hawkwind weren't
Hawkwind.  Just a guess but it might make a difference.
