I've been brought up on Hawkwind, they were me dad's favourite band, he had EVERYTHING by them, bar one compilation (greasy truckers party) that he searched for in vain for years....
I saw them on the Alien 4 tour, only Dave Brock really, I think Alan Davey was on the album, but I don't think he was at the gig. The band were sloppy and wasted, and this young punky idiot (Ron Tree) was singing most of the songs.... really badly.
Lets just say it's put me off seeing them again, I've had plenty of opportunities over the years.
Still love the band though, I honestly don't think they really did a bad album until the 90s, and even some of those were pretty good. (Distant Horizons, Electric Tepee)

Tear down these walls; Cut the ties that held me
Crying out at the top of my voice; Tell me now if you can hear me
