[Michael Habiby]

38

> 2. How old were you when you first heard Hawkwind?

17

> 3. What was the 1st Hawkwind album you heard/bought ?

Hawklords 25 yrs on.

> 4. What was the one that 'hooked' you ?

The first time.  Thanks to Greg Stone and his show Stone Trek on the air
Sunday from 9 to midnight in the San Jose Ca area.

- interregnum 1- (I had collected up to Church but never saw anything else
from them till the early 90's)

The second time was finding WATEOT box set in 1993 or so (not sure) and
discovering that the boys had not had a distribution contract for like 10
yrs and that they were STILL around making music.  This set me off on the
Kollection Quest which I have pretty much filled.

- interregnum 2 - (The box set had releases listed to Electric Teepee but I
didnt know what was happening past that till I
found the BOC-L list and Griffen got the distribution rights here in the
USofA.)

THE THIRD TIME was getting what was for me a "new" release of Electric
Teepee. This taught me that the boys were still making great music.

> What is your favorite HW album now?

Probably Levitation, Church, Electric Teepee... that is a toughie.

> 6. What HW album do you play the most?

The latest release (whatever that might be) and the 25yrs on collection +
lots of great bootlegs (thanx BP).
