Hawkwind/Live At Glastonbury Festival 1990 - By the end of the 80's, after
numerous line up changes, arguments over royalties and the death of Robert
Calvert it looked like the end of Hawkwind. But with yet another new line
up, the album Space Bandits was issued on Castle to great acclaim, with the
band's date sheet fuller than ever, playing dates with the new breed of
festival acts such as Ozric Tentacles. This gig was recorded at the band's
spiritual home Glastonbury at 5 a.m. in the Travellers Field, it is
previously unreleased and includes a blend of old and new material.
Musicians Bridget Wishart::vocals. Dave Brock::vocals, guitars, keyboard.
Alan Davey::bass, vocals. Harvey Bainbridge::vocals, keyboards Richard
Chadwick::Drums.

Hawkwind/Greasy Truckers - This gig was recorded at the Roundhouse in 1972
at The Greasy Truckers Party. Featuring the classic line up of Brock,
Calvert, Turner, Lemmy, King, Dikmik and Dettmar. The original version of
Silver Machine, with Calvert on spoken - word vocals was featured in the
set. Hawkwind's manager Doug Smith then took Lemmy into Morgan Studios to
re-record the vocals,and the single released later in the year became an
international best seller.

Hawkwind/Choose Your Masques - Live 1982 - Collectors Series Volume 1 - The
early 80's saw Hawkwind signed to RCA, 3 albums were released, of which
Choose Your Masques was the most successful. Whilst the band had gone
through another line up change, the core of Dave Brock, Huw Lloyd - Langton
and Harvey Bainbridge saw their date sheet as full as ever. This double cd
is a 24 track recording of the complete show with a full colour booklet,
which is a faithfull reproduction of the tour programme.

Hawkwind/Complete '79 - Collectors Series Volume 2 - By 1979 the band
consisted of Brock, Lloyd - Langton, King, Bainbridge with special guest Tim
Blake of Gong. The album Live Seventy Nine (re -issued by Castle) captured
the punky spirit of the period and resulted in a minor hit single "Shot Down
In The Night". This double cd set is a complete show from the 1979 tour,
and the booklet consists of a full colour reproduction of the tour
programme.
