album slagging

[Mike Montfort]

I refer to studio albums here, I should have been specific.

I have heard all of those groups as well, and while they are good, and 
some very good, I still don't think they can touch the Hawkwind magic.

It's all personal opinion anyway.

Thanks for allowing me to clarify, I was not talking about dodgy live 
albums like the one you speak of.
