Chronicles Of The Black Bong Hawkwind

Hey,

My first experience was hearing WOTEOT on a poor quality home recorded
tape. It was still mind blowing enough to get me hooked.

The mate who lent me that tape was also passing some Uriah Heep to me at
the same time. This was back in 1977. Not long afterwards I got to see the
Hawks live for the first time as a 15 year old. The rest of the music world
didn't stand a chance after that! The likes of Sabbath and Motorhead got
the occassional listen in those days but....

Immediately I was out scouring record shops with only one group on my mind.
