KNIGHTS OF SPACE DVD/CD

[john-paul]

having said that, there are a couple of bits which are pure blanga, ie, when 
the guitar comes in on robot and the lead on alien i am, wow! go brock, even 
with the flu, kudos! , john-paul.

ps just watched it again on my pc with headphones ( while wife was watching 
"cum dancing" ) and i have to say it is probably the closest thing to seeing 
hawkwind live i have seen ( and i have a few films of them ) ( my site 
http://windwizard.110mb.com/ ) i think that the masters/time we left section 
was edited by someone who was at the space ritual gigs in the 70's, i can 
imagine thats what it looked like live with the aid of a few illegal 
substances, john-paul
