HW- UK Vs USA Warrior CD

[mike coleman]

*oh great subject and this one doesn't have to make me cry*
*here is the answer to the question as far as I recall it, as far as the
official record goes, and as far as I put more into it*
*the UK master tapes to Warrior apparently went missing, and the UK Dojo
version is mastered from vinyl, and so to many could be considered the most
"proper"....*
*the USA Griffin version, is made from the USA ATCO master tapes, which are
for reasons unknown to me, different-*
*I have mentioned this on the forum before, but I have a strange Griffin
issue that has a psychedic "light-color" refraction ring around the outer
edge......don't know about any musical difference there but I doubt it*
*I happen to have ONE extra unplayed Dojo CD if anybody is interested as I
just found out I am more in need of Hawk-money than I realized*
*now Bastard, you NEED to let me have that Warrior promo for this*
*while I have no Rock Fever issues due to money constraints, and a new
approach to the way I collect, I know from Hawkwind themselves (which does
NOT mean you should buy these pirate issues), that if you simply have a
jewel case and digi versions, you still don't have them all....(the digi I
speak directly about the Warrior)*
*HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA  (good luck) HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA*
*sidenote: my test-pressing does NOT sound like the ATCO version...it sounds
totally AWESOME*
