BOC: So long and thanks for all the hawks

[ANDREW GARIBALDI]

Hey - just for kicks why don't we get the bands to do a split CD - BOC do
Hawkwind tracks and Hawkwind do BOC tracks - now there's a prospect - BOC
doing 'Brainstorm' while the Hawks find some way of doing 'ME262' - a
mouth-watering prospect that could turn out ot be anything from amazing to
side-splitting - I'd love to hear it, that's for sure. Keep the dual
identity - we all need variation in our lives.
