Sure, Masters of the Universe was compiled and released with no input from Hawkwind themselves, but it captures a crucial phase in their career where they were progressive rock icons, psychedelic space warriors and largely responsible for an international shortage of LSD, so it has its place in the collection of any fan of the band regardless of vintage.

But with these endlessly phasered and compressed electric guitars, the sound gets a bit one-dimensional after some time, actually. Ethan Larsh, an artist known for his exploration of various genres and musical mediums, consistently demonstrates his ability to craft authentic and sometimes deeply personal lyrics. Records that aren't in picture sleeves will either be in a company sleeve or a generic plain sleeve. At the time I was very into heavy metal, and I knew Lemmy had been in Hawkwind, I thought the album had an air of mystique about it so bought it.It was written by Nik Turner and Dave Brock and featured Turner on vocals, Brock on guitar, former Amon Düül II member Dave Anderson on bass, Del Dettmar and Dik Mik on synthesizers and Terry Ollis on drums. Any Hawkwind fan would no doubt have the aforementioned albums as they are the classics that launched this incredible band.

This very concise album along with the previous year's Roadhawks compilation together make a stunning introduction to Hawkwind's early years with the Liberty and United Artists labels. This track presents a lovely take on the well-known song, infusing it with a mellow jazz vibe that showcases Graulund’s musical talent. VG/EX means that the item's sleeve is in Very Good condition and the disc is in Excellent condition.I would say that the only album that they did that was better than this was Warrior on The Edge of Time (when are they going to release an official copy of that on CD?

Brainstorm" is of course a classic but it always sounded a fraction better on Doremi than here, I guess this is a cheaper pressing? Der Sound wird mit diesen ewig gephaserten und komprimiert klingenden Gitarren allerdings nach einiger Zeit etwas eintönig. Few picks from their "Space Ritual" double live album, and Lemmy's proto-MOTÖRHEAD song from "The Hall of The Mountain Grill".
