Hawkwind - 'Independent Days,Vol.1-2' (Griffin)
Mike Reed | USA | 10/25/2004
(3 out of 5 stars)
"From what I understand(heard it from a Griffin rep. myself),'Independent...' was put out MAINLY to prove that Hawkwind could STILL release an 'in demand' title that could compete with the major labels and at the same time still cater to their long-time loyal fans.Makes perfect sense.Lemmy apparently returns to the studio on a few of these thirteen tracks.Tunes that I thought most likely achieved the goal are "Night Of The Hawks",Nik Turner's "Watching The Grass Grow","Kiss Of The Velvet Whip" and the memorable rocker "Kings OF Speed".Pretty much aimed at die hard fans."
