album slagging

[Cyberkrel]

EVERY album? Surely not - even the most committed of Hawkwfans surely can't
say that, for example, "Yuri Gagarin" is better than, say, to choose an
example close to home, Krel's "Out of Space". Or maybe you can?
If I had to compile a list of genuine space-rock albums that could hold a
candle to Hawkwind, it would have Spacehead, Space Mirrors, Krel, Litmus,
The Other Window, Dr Hasbeen and Farflung, to name but a few. Now I'm not
saying that any of these are btter than Hawkwind - and not all these
people's albums are "as good" - but it follows that you'll get a lot more
pleasure out of any one of these in terms of listening, rather than yet
another compilation or reissue from the labels that still try it on where
the Hawks are concerned.
