    He meant "Hawkwind"(trying to get that fixed) and Dik manned the Synth. What a cool group. I have several of their albums in my library......go figure right! R.I.P. Dik

    That group was another one that just showed up and started playing where ever they got a hankering to do it...not many of those around anymore...I believe Lemmy also did a stint with them too...RIP....

    RIP DIRK..

    Never heard of them until now. Thanks.

    Space Rock.
    Kind of like Styx but with more of an edge it seems.
    I'd buy there albums if I see them and I might just cruse Amazon or Ebay for an album or two after you tubing the albums I like. Maybe even checking out a top ten list of their best albums if there is one.
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    WOW !!!

    Kind of like Rare Earth's " Get Ready " meets Iron Butterfy's " Innagodadavida ".

    I listened while Poppy the Cat got stuck in a tree. :D Really .

    I then watched the next video that popped up in line and it was in search of vinyl, Hawkwind's In search of space album package.

    That might be the MOST in-depth compilation of stuff I've ever seen put into an album package. And that was 1971 !

    That booklet looked like some darn good reading for me, being I love science and space related info and pictures, TV episodes and sci-fi movies.

    The Cover was quite elaborate in it's design as well !

    Very Cool ! B)

    Thanks for bringing the group to my attention !
    I like !
