Didn't he used to sometimes be seen wearing a BOC T-shirt? :)

I've actually thought about what BOC songs could translate over into 
Hawkwind-stylee from time to time (because I think to much about this 
kind of thing! ;).

One contender would be "Veteran of the Psychic Wars", done in a kind of 
"Dreaming City" meets "Love in Space" slow-rock style.  But I've always 
thought that "Take Me Away" would work as well (albeit in a Huw-lineup 
way, fitting stylistically on something like _Levitation_ or _Live '79_. 
  Slightly more risky: thinking of the Imaginos version of "Astronomy", 
one could try rearranging the song with a kind of "Lord of Light" vibe, 
or perhaps with an acoustic intro as in "Down through the Night".  Dunno 
if it would work, but it would be fun to try!

Cheers,
Carl
