     I respectfully disagree :)  I thought Sonic Attack and CyM
were pretty limp--OK, it was a interesting experiment, but IMO it
didn't work.  Hawkwind are always at their best when doing space
*rock* and leaning too much on any variety of space never seems
to work out, IMO.  I like the Chronicles > Xenon era rather
better than the early 80s, and like Levitation-Live 79 for the
same reason.  I like Calvert similarly well, just not nearly as
much as the early daze or the 90s trio (I thought _Space Bandits_
was weak, but loved _Palace Springs_ and the rock tracks on
_ET_ :)  _IITBOTFTBD_ I thought was grim, but _A4_ was pretty
damn good).

Cheers,
Carl
