HW observation

[Colin Allen]

Richard Morley, not Robert.  I spoke with him on a couple of occasions when I was working with HW and got the impression that he was "disenchanted".

    I know what you mean there all right. Arthur Brown was a good addition but someone of his ability doing this job doesn't really work, he has too much stuff of his own that the gravity of his presence must distort away from Hawkwind material. Wasn't there talk of work with one Robert Morley (obviously not the dead one) way back in the gestation of TMTYL? I wonder what happened to that. Or whether, given his other visible work:

that would really have been a good idea... Yours,
