On the contrary, I really must say that Glastonbury 90 impresses me as a
superb Hawkwind performance. True, it is only an audience recording, but I
think we should take it for what it is--the only existing recording of a
fantastic show. Having collected Hawkwind live tapes for years, I can say I
have at least 50 live shows with much worse sound quality (not to mention
much worse performance quality). I think it's great that Hawkwind are
releasing their own bootlegs in an attempt to beat the "professional"
bootleggers at their own game. I can't really say a bad thing about this
release.
