THE BEST HAWKWIND RECORDING EVER!
Surfing Guitarist | United States | 10/13/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have been an avid Hawkwind fan since 1971 when I saw them on the college circuit in England. Since then, they have released dozens of excellent studio albums. "In search of space" from this period was their finest moment, until the release of this greatly underrated and overlooked masterpiece..."Electric Teepee". If one looks in the racks at large record stores in the US, one is overwhelmed by absolute garbage live recordings from Hawkwind that have been re-hashed and re-packaged to infinity. In addition, there are dozens of banal compilations that suffer the same problems. Take my word and avoid them like the plague. Instead, buy "Electric Teepee" and "In search of space" to begin your Hawkwind collection, and you will have two gems in your collection. My favourite tracks from "Teepee" are 'LSD", "Blue shift" and "Space dust". Most of the 78 minutes is first-class. I never tire of it- Magnificent!!"
My favorite HAWKWIND album of the 90s!

"down to a trio after the departure of longtime keyboardist
HARVEY BAINBRIDGE , vocalist BRIDGET WISHART and violinist SIMON
HOUSE, HAWKWIND made one of their strongest albums in well over
a decade with ELECTRIC TEPEE. the opening track is a very
powerful and spacy riff rocker, with sound effects and synthe-
sizers flying everywhere. tis one of the best WIND songs in many
an album! this album has it's share of hard rockers, even tho
it is a very synthesizer dominated album, which is not a com-
plaint, for the songs are very strong. containing 14 songs and
clocking in at over 70 minutes long, there is nary a dull moment
on the entire album. there are some very soothing, almost ambient
instrumentals, along with an Egyptian flavored instrumental and
a very hypnotic, trancy one! there's a song about secret agents
getting themselves into tight spots(SECRET AGENT, one of HAWK-
WIND'S funniest songs), along with some narsty garden pests and
a song about a relationship gone bad! the last two songs are an
indication of the musical direction WIND would go on future al-
bums. ELECTRIC TEPEE is a very enjoyable and entertaining album!"
Hawkwind - 'Electric Teepee' (Griffin)

"Very good later-day Hawkwind release.'Electric Teepee' appears to be the band's first indication of their interest in fusing classic space rock sounds with techno and ambient.Does the formula work?Are gas prices too high?Total of fourteen tracks and most of them do stand up rather well.I used to like "LSD" and "Blue Shift" more than I do now.Reason for that is they played those two songs like on every live show they'd done for several years.Guess I sort of got burned out on them.Other cuts I thoroughly enjoyed were "Snake Dance",their UK hit single "Right To Decide"(saw a bootleg video for this song-very exciting to view!),"Space Dust" and the bassist Alan Davey penned "Secret Agent"(another good song to experience while played live).I got many plays out of this CD.So will you,if you haven't already.Recommended to all true Hawkfans."
