HW: Voiceprint CD

[ANDREW GARIBALDI]

far be it from me to defend Voiceprint on this matter, and I'm not really,
but I figure that seeing as how they sold so few of the mis-pressed one,
they are figuring that so few people will have it already that the majority
will be happy to see it.
However, I am of the opinion that some 'dodgy mis-pressing, altho'
technically 'collectors item' status (to a degree) is hardly a bona-fide
freebie from what appears to be the main label for all things Hawkwind,
these days, especially, when, as you say, they must surely have had
something else on the table before this arrived, altho knowing them, that
may not actually be the case - I could imagine them 'waiting to see what
dropped out of the skies', but count your blessings it wasn't some even
dodgier compilation, perhaps.
