Doremi Fasol Latido

If you're here you already know.Amazing heavy psych rock, with whirling synth landscapes, acoustic drones. blarring loud riffs, thunderous bass, and frantic drumming. Some would call this proto-metal. I call it Hawkwind. Nothing comes close..While there is some criticism on the original mix of the album, I think the remaster does a great job of correcting the EQ discrepancies.It's a solid pick for any hawkwind fan or something who wants to hear something new. If you're into 60-70s underground rock this is a no brainer.truly one of the greatest bands of all time, right up there with black sabbath, pink floyd and king crimson.

Very few people are Hawkwind fans although there are many Motorhead fans. Well guess what? Lemmy of Motorhead originally started out as a Hawkwind band member. So if you like Motorhead and synthesizers and Lemmy, you will like this album.

I guess it's mainly because I love the studio versions of "Down Through the Night" and "Space is Deep" so much, but the rest of the album is pretty fine, too.However, I did notice that it doesn't sound quite as good as it did 30+ years ago, when I used to crank this thing after a bit of "chemical enhancement".

Hawkwind's 3rd album would be the first to feature Lemmy (who would go on to form Motorhead) on bass and Simon King on drums. Overall the sound of the band became a bit heavier with this release, but the material was still very much in the space rock vein. Guitars, bass and drums are up front on this one with the keyboards reined in a bit from the band's previous efforts. The album opens with "Brainstorm" a rollicking rocker that reminds me of "Shouldn't Do That" from the previous album. "Brainstorm" is still a staple in the band's live set today. "Space Is Deep" and "Time We Left The World Today" are two other favorites that bolster the band's science fiction themes. I am not really sure if this is a concept album or not, but there is a long story written in the liner notes about space heroes running through the galaxy that may or may not fit as a storyline to the music. The last track is the menacing "The Watcher" with Lemmy on vocals and is truly a chilling little science fiction tune. Lemmy would best be known as a metal pioneer, but this song is mellow, melodic, and dark. This is another strong early Hawkwind album.

This is one of the best bands of the era. Not as well known as they should be. However, they get enough love from record collectors to make up for it.

I am quite pleased with this purchase.Mesmerizing art of melodic noise, play it as loud as possible.Amazon comes through as always, excellent merchant and transaction support.

nic love it

Yo want your Hawkwind dark and heavy? With little or no saxaphone? I hate that saxaphone. that's why this album kills. I hate Clarence Clemens and he isn't on this album. No saxphone = great hawkwind!!!!

I am very satisfy of my purchase.

a fab cd to replace scratched vinyl

Für Fans ein Muss. Mit Lemmy Kilmister am Bass.

ロック色が強く良いです。レミーのベースがバリバリですね。かっこいい！

L'un des meilleurs d'HAWKWIND , très inspiré et avec de super morceaux ( beaucoup sont repris dans le live "Space Ritual" ). Toute l'âme du groupe est là, le son aussi ( guitares saturées ou acoustiques, synthés planants, rythmique puissante et envolées de saxes avec toujours de super parties vocales ) . . . . Super album ! ( jaquette sympa dans l'édition CD, avec photos et commentaires )
