Out under the morning moon...


I was supposed to have been going along to see The Psychedelic Warlords perform "A Space Ritual" tonight but Count Brodski bailed a couple of days ago and I decided to stay at home and listen to Hawkwind instead...

It just so happened that, while in HMV at lunchtime, I noticed the 2CD version of "Hawkwind at the BBC 1972" for a fiver - this is the remastered version with mono and stereo mixes - I already have the one disc mono concert - given the disappointment re tonight, I snapped it up (along with a 2CD set of solo albums by the Brewis brothers from Field Music - recommended for all fans of XTC)...

A nice wee curry sustained early evening along with the last two episodes of the now cancelled "Wedding Band" - starring the same guy who is in the cancelled "Terminator : The Sarah Connor Chronicles" - no luck...

In between sampling recent acquisitions, "Have I Got News For You" and "Not Going Out" were also enjoyed, prior to the full Hawkwind concert and some watching of the missed Psychedelic Warlords on Youtube - looked good...

Not to worry...

If you're not familiar with Hawkwind, rather unbelievably, their 1971 track, "Master of the Universe" graces the latest Ford advert - the one where the guy dives through the car into a pool on a hill outside Barcelona...



A good start to the weekend, despite not going out...

Highlight of the Day : Kiss and Hawkwind...
