HW: California Brainstorm

[mary]

It took forever for Griffin to put them out, and Sonnic Attack and Church Of
Hawkwind are 2 of my all time favorites, although, as I've mentioned, it
took a while to get used to the resequencing on Church, but it works for me,
I'm glad I still have the album though.

Hmmm, it's not that I "don't like" the RCA albums, it's that I'm not
too familiar with them and don't have an opinion on them at all.  They
don't seem to have had very wide CD distribution...?  (Or they went in
and out of print while I wasn't looking).
