HW: Recent v Old / Poll

[Thomas Guy]

OK folks:

1:      36
2:      Heard Silver Machine in 1972, but really heard HW properly when I
was 17 (in 1979)

3:      Quark Strangeness & Charm
4:      Hall of the Mountain Grill
5:      Hall of the Mountain Grill
6:      Hall of the Mountain Grill

(As you probably may notice,  I rather like HotMG!!  The whole of side A and
Paradox are probably perpetually played in heaven!

                        I'll bite, this looks like it might be a useful
qualifier to our
                normal era vs. era threads.

                1. 23
                2. 19
                3. _Spirit of the Age_ (Virgin compilation, mostly of _Live
'79_ and
                _Levitation_ stuff)
                4. Tape of _Space Ritual_ kindly made for me by Mr.
Anderson...

                        And I'd like to add another two, 5: what is your
favourite HW album now?
                and 6: what HW album do you play the most? To which I would
answer:
                5. _In Search of Space_ and
                6. straight tie between _Doremi Fasol Latido_ and _Love In
Space_.
