        Dear Larry,
                    I missed the original behind this, which is rather
old... But, is this a reference to a Hawkwind recording with Twink? Which
one, is it available, and stuff like that? I've often wondered if he was
on record with the Hawks anywhere, more for interest than any guarantee of
quality (since Terry Ollis wasn't at all bad on the drums when he wasn't
off his face). Can you furnish me with any information? Yours,
                                                               Jon

sho nuff...twink filled in for mr. ollis in birmingham 12/2 or 2/12 or dec.
2. '71 ===
he does okay bluffing his way through the set (considering), which ends w/an
early "born to go" and the aforementioned 25 minute jam. pretty good sound
quality too>>
contact me off group if you wanna hear it...(i'll have to play it again
myself, now that we mention it)

there's one particular may or june  72 HW show where ollis just aint cuttin'
it...frequently stops playing...this was around the time mr. king took over;
there were a few gigs w/ollis and king together (!) sure would like to find
one...

ollis sounded like a drummer who had taken lessons and king sounded like one
day he sat down and started bashing away (as i did, w/king looming largely)
=== not a knock on ollis, just making a distinction ^_~
though indeed, mr. king is a MAIN MAN of mine
