Fun fact, David Brock in the late 50's was an acoustic busker and electric blues guitarist who took in a young Eric Clapton as a partner and taught him how to play. Eric recently played on their album and did a couple of shows with Dave.
They provided the stage for Stonehenge Festival for many many years. Awesome people. Listening to them play as the sun goes down before the dawn with Stonehenge in background is something that will never be repeated. I am actually a huge reggae fan and one year they were joined by Misty in Roots on stage. Truly amazing night.
Kel's reaction to this is exactly the reaction you should have to Hawkwind. Fantastic!
She was really getting it, loved her reaction :)
Awesome reaction! Lift off!🎶🤯
O agree, great reaction. She GETS it
Yeah, man ... Just into it! Now try it with acid.
That woman is sizzling hot! Nice one mate!
I am a big Hawkwind fan, pay no heed to the idiots , you both are great people , and I love your appreciation of songs. Terry in London
"Light a match across the world"
Still sends shivers down my spine.
For this era, early 1970's, you need the whole Space Ritual album and a fistful of acid. It really helps when you're flying through space.
Fistful? Microdots are micro for a reason.
@@nealbeard1 A Fistful of Microdots - that would be a Flying Spaghettti Monster Western?
If they were to do that, they might come to believe they're Legendary Pink Dots.
Your lass has got it spot on ...close your eyes and enjoy the flight...❤
Ex-Hawkwind member Del Dettmar who played keyboards on this song emigrated to British Columbia in 1974. Try "Robot" from the album "PXR5" as no one else has mentioned it!
You queue for the paper you queue for the bus
This has always been my favourite Hawkwind song. You go for it girl. That is the way to enjoy These guys.
I saw Hawkwind many times from 1982 many times and through the 90s. I was a drummer in many rock bands and managed to give a demo tape of a band I was in to Dave Brock backstage at one of there gigs. Great man and a great band 👍. Thanks for the reaction.
Lemmy's up front bass on this track is just exemplary. Made me go and buy a bass and learn to play.
Thanks for the name check, and tnx even more for your reaction to Lord Of light. The version on The Space Ritual is even heavier . The whole live album needs to be played as loud as your ears (and next door) will allow to get the proper effect of the distortion and down tuned guitar and bass. Very glad to see new folks listening to Hawkwind.
Fancy seeing you in here Auntie! 😉✌️👽♠️
Yes, we had The Man From Uncle in Canada. Did you know that it was David McCallum's father, a session violinist, who suggested using a violin bow on the guitar to Jimmy Page ?
I went to many Hawkwind concerts in Liverpool, UK in the 90's when they sounded so dynamic and heavy with the main core of Dave Brock, Alan Davey and Richard Chadwick along with various fleeting appearances of other members (Ron Tree, Bridget Wisheart and Harvey Bainbridge). They really did have a huge sound and great show.
Electric Tepee is one of my favourite Hawk albums. Saw the tour at Hammersmith, remember the stick man going round and round. So simple but effective when you're out of it!
Motorhead was originally recorded by Hawkwind and was released as a single with the track Valium Ten. Give Valium Ten a listen :).
Kel's reaction made me smile, I always find myself grinning like a Cheshire cat at exactly the point she started laughing. The sensation of being propelled through dimensions at breakneck speer. Ripper Kel.
Try Motorway City next (Hawkwind). Stunning piece of work by anybodies standards. I guarantee you'l be singing it all day.
Amen to that, brother. Huw's guitar playing is... beyond beautiful. Motor Way City is my absolute favorite Hawkwind song, from my favorite Hawkwind era.
@Spencer Rees Dust of Time!Great riff great solo amazing song!
listen to the live album Space Ritual one of the best live albums ever
Agreed. Just do the entire double live 1972 album. Here's a tidbit. I bought this double live album in 1980 at the local import record shop in Canada for $C35. Inflation adjusted, that's about $C320 in todays dollars.
@@cobrax2439 I payed $50 in 1988.... On an auction... still have it!
Rich n kel,love the second reaction to hawkind,keep the journey space bound.respect 2 u both.
Lemmy reckoned it was THE best live album ever.
@@Spaceshiptechnician totally agree. best live album ever. a moment captured in time never to be forgotten. especially on acid. man what a trip.
I am totally in love with Lemmys bass on this track at the moment, 2020, I'm not new to Hawkwind I bought this album when it came out.
Loved hearing that track again. Hawkwind were/are a band I adored because they weren't about the money playing loads of gigs for free. I remember after the vicious attack by the police on a group of 'New age travelers' in 1985 which became known as the 'Battle of the Beanfield' and can be found on Y.T -if you have not seen it you must as it shows you the police brutality that even the mainstream press found sick-seeing is believing!! Hawkwind played just off a lay-by in 1988 as we were trying to get to Stonehenge and managed to get two songs off before the police managed to unplug them. I remember one of the songs was Brainstorm and can be found on an album called the Traveler's Aid Trust where all the proceeds went to the travelers who tried to live a life free from social norms on the road. Unfortunately the government brought in draconian laws under the guise of the 'Public Order Acts' and changes to the benefit system which broke up the groups of people who wanted to live an alternative life on the road. Anyway hearing Brainstorm which is track 1 on the Travelers Aid Trust album captures a moment for free people as Hawkwind drown out the police helicopters. YESS!!
Thanks for reading my post great reaction to this song. I discovered them accidentally, found "The Xenon Codex" in a cut-out bin and loved it. Then I bought the 4-disc compilation box set "25 Years On" which comes with a 100 page graphic novel featuring the band.
That b-side 'Born to Go' is great too. I also like 'Brainstorm,' 'Space Is Deep,' 'Orgone Accumulator,' 'Sonic Attack' (a spoken word piece that instructs you what to watch out for in case of imminent sonic destruction and what to do), 'Psychedelic Warlords,' 'Angels of Death,' 'Shot Down in the Night,' 'The War I Survived' and 'Quark, Strangeness and Charm.'
Hawkwind are seminal, original, essential, and defy pigeon-holing. They're still pretty prolific - most recent proper album was into the woods 2 years ago, plus the 4 before (Blood of the Earth,
Onward, Stellar Variations and The Machine Stops) all released within 7 years. Style changes are plenty - its good that you're into metal, prog, and some classic rock like Supertramp, as you should be able to appreciate most of it.
Love the Marvel reference. I can see the raccoon definitely being into some Hawkwind! I wanna ski on space-water too. About this track - its part of a sublime sequence on the album which starts off with Brainstorm, goes into Space is Deep, then a short piano piece, then launches into the Hendrix protopunk of Lord of Light. It ain't for the feint-hearted that's for sure. What I want to know is how they managed a violin solo when there's no violins on this record!...
Flying is trying is dying
.
It may be the single version
@@schwinglow No, the length they're listening to is the Doremi version and the solo section is there. The question is: how do sound like a violin when there isn't any on the record.
Finally, Hawkwind reactions. Thank you so much. You will get many,many requests for Hawkwind tracks. For me, Paradox, D-Rider, The Golden Void, Psychadelic Warlords all would be much appreciated, and, I am sure, enjoyed by you both.
Hawkwind, to my knowledge, is the only group to ever reference Orgone Energy, and the Orgone Accumulator
The song cloudbusting by Kate Bush is about Wilhelm Reach the inventor of the orgone accumulator who was arrested and had all his orgone devices destroyed.
The Man from UNCLE is one of my favorite TV shows. It was really popular in the UK.
Hawkwind! Woah, this is unexpected. In case of sonic attack in your district....
DO NOT PANIC
Love the reactions guys. Kel totally gets it.Don't ever change 'cause you lighten my day.
Going to see hawkwind in September can’t wait seen live twice before 👍
Lord of Light is the name of a Sci-Fi novel by Roger Zelasny which came out about '72. If there is a direct connection, IDK, it could just be a cool title that Hawkwind borrowed.
My only Hawkwind album was Live Chronicals, songs taken from a series of fantasy novels by Michael Moorcock, it was recorded at Stonehenge, yes The Stonehenge. I heard that bands couldn't record there anymore for fear of toppling the stones. BOC also was inspired by Moorcock, most famously Black Blade and Veteran of the Psychic Wars, which Moorcock gets writing credits on.
You are correct. Damnation Valley and Jack of Shadows are a couple of other book to song titles.
Er no, 'This is Hawkwind Do No Panic' was recorded at Stonehenge, Live Chronicles was recorded at Ipswich Gaumont and somewhere else in Leeds i think, I was there at Ipswich and after Zarozania you can hear my mate shout. It was a fantastic gig.
@@cmharb3 Most of This is Hawkwind DNP wasn't recorded at Stonehenge either......
I discovered Hawkwind around 1979 when I was 17 and I've seen them live twice, once in 1980 at the Lyceum in London and then again in Cambridge in 2006. Both gigs blew me away and would love to see them again. I'm a bit late to this RUclips 'Reaction' party that's going on, I didn't even know it was 'a thing' until about a week ago! Hawkwind are on my list of bands to suggest as I hadn't seen any reactions to them, that was until I came across your 'Master of the Universe' reaction quickly followed by this one. Anyway, there are plenty more tracks from them to suggest so I'll be heading to your website!! By the way, did anyone notice the misspelled cover?
Wow !! The Greasy Truckers' party! I had forgotten all about that. That night there was also a Welsh good time stoner band called Man on stage. I remember them playing a long number called Spunk Rock. Maybe you might play something live of theirs, like the Banana song from their reunon at the Roundhouse. Their major members have since passed to the gig in the sky but their sons still tour as 'Son of Man'.
The WATCHER on this album is sung by Lemmy, he also plays the acoustic gtr on said track...
Good to see some people enjoying classic Hawkwind as much as I do! Space rock!
Songs and bands that take me back to my childhood, superb viewing! Having already given you five songs to check out, I'm sure you'll get loads more. As of now I've decided to have myself a Hawkwind week and listen to songs I haven't played in a long time.
It is a pleasure to see others catching the 'high' that Hawkwind can evoke.
Quark, Strangeness and Charm's: Hassan I Sabbah (aka Assassins of Allah/Hashish) is superb!
Controversial lyrics, cleverly written, heavy and one of those timeless grooves; They could have easily made it 2 or 3 minutes longer.
Love your reactions!! This music is out of this world!😂 👏👏👍
Love you back!
KnR 😎🌹🙏🏽💕
Brilliant song. The whole album is class. I've listened to it a thousand times over the years. I know every bit, absolutely brilliant.
Again, I have seen Hawkwind several times between 1973 and 1978. I also saw Motorhead when Lemmy first formed them with Filthy Animal Taylor and Fast Eddy Clark. All of whom I have met. Many years later I saw Pinkwing formed from members of Hawkwind and The Pink Fairies. I might suggest you have a listen to The Pink Fairies 'The Snake'.
My favourite band of all time :)
Watching this reaction was a challenge cause I can't listen to Hawkwind with my eyes open. Loved it guys :)
You need to see them live, you're only getting 75% of what seeing Hawkwind is like.
Haha, I used to have Lord of the Hornets as my youtube name between 2005 and 2012/13 when I had my original youtube account banned for copyright strikes.
The fuckers, I loved that username and the account being an original account from the start of youtube.
My favorite Hawkwind album would be In search of space,awesome album.favorite song would be We took the wrong step years ago,fantastically relevant now
Listen to Steppenwolf from astounding sounds amazing music. Totally different totally great.
Hawkwind - still got my Silver Machine !!
Still got my Urban Guerilla single tucked away safe.
How did I miss these guys for all these years? They are indeed very good! Thanks, my friends, for turning us on to them.
You bet, RA!
The Silver Surfer in the sky. I always surf through space when I hear classic Hawks.
There's sounds on this that you have never heard before ❤❤❤❤
Hawkwind are great I got into their music in the early 70s different from other rock bands there's the magic there space rock lives on
Growing up Hawkwind was known as a band always playing live. They were biggest band back in the Free Festival era and had a following from people dropping acid.
Thanks so much for this reaction. Hawkwind has been in my life since "74, a soundtrack running mind blowingly along in the background. Their words, especially the more socially conscious ones, actually set my mind set and influenced my thinking in many positive ways.
Thank you for putting them on, I think you two are great for doing so. From the 70's stuff to Tool, what a musical feast is laid down before us!!
And you did Wishbone Ash' The King Will Come as well!!
Hawkwind needs to be on a Guardians of the Galaxy mix tape!
Check out their Live Videos at Stonehenge celebrating Summer Solstice together with the true Druids of Today.....the only Band allowed to play there at this Place....
Like the second reaction to hawkind rich n kel,keep the journey space bound,space is deep,seven by seven.Banbury, Oxfordshire, England.
Love, love, LOOOOOVE watching Kel’s reactions to Hawkwind tunes!
If you haven’t already done this, i fully recommend blazing one and THEN listening to some!
Welcome to the crew of Starship Hawkwind! 😉👽❤️♠️✌️🤘
Lay on your back in a dark room with phones on full blast ❤
Definitely Dave Brock singing, Lemmy on cosmic bass
I don't think so. It was Calvert singing. Brock was the lead guitarist, and probably the most influential member of the band.
@@martinperry5072no, it’s Brock.
The Silver Surfer flies through space listening to Hawkwind
Astounding sounds amazing music is an album well worth checking out.
Hawkwind ..so underestimated..this is your captain speaking your captain is dead ❤
Just a heads up, Hawkwind is a proper can of worms right now, the fanbase has gone through a schism, no matter what you do you will piss a group of fans off so sod the giving a toss and just get on with being you and enjoy what you enjoy about it.
As for your video? I have to commend you for playing it right through without pausing to talk and without nudging it back, best way to listen for the first time, Hawkwind is really a journey to experience, just next time you listen to the early stuff drop some frigging acid folks!
And one last thing, "Welcome to the Future"!
It's absolutely fantastic music and Lammy's bass playing is a masterpiece
You may want to check something out on the Levitation or Quark, Strangeness and Charm albums or maybe wait for the new album out later this year just in time for the 50th anniversary tour.
The video footage for Silver Machine was recorded at Queensway Hall, Dunstable, which I went to as a kid. It's an Asda now.
YES!!!!! HAWKWIND!!!!!!
Glad these guys are checking out Hawkwind, but beware cos space is deep !! :)

went to see them live in November, Leeds town hall, yup best British band I'd say 👽👍
This was so, so weird for me... but please carry on! ('Time We Left this World Today', for ultimate Lemmy).
Space Ritual the Live album !!!! Trust me, be a Hawkwind fan from the beginning : D
Kelly really tripping without drugs
Kel you got it just right..... :) Don't you just love Hawkwind
The original "Doremi" album ( -Barney bubbles black cover ) is he HEAVIEST rock album ever recorded. Glad you gave it a listen.
Thanks for doing the hawks again ive asked for quark on your webby site thingy hope you do it.🎧👍
Please do Hawkind's 'Assault and Battery' from Warrior on the Edge of Time. That's their best song, in my opinion.
I recommend adding the song that follows, "Golden Void" when doing this review. The songs flow into each other and together are quite incredible!!!
"The Golden Void" is a must
One of my favourites. I mean, a great album all round. Closely followed by Hall of the Mountain Grill. However Space Ritual Live beats them both for that Hawkwind experience.
There is something very English about you guys and your musical tastes. Love it.
Great selection, you should hear Warrior on The Edge of Time or Steppenwolf.
Hawkwind is not just considered "Space Rock", but they are acknowledged as the originators of "Space Rock"!
You have yet to see a live show... with Stacia 😉..... you'll find out.
Check out orgone accumulator or psi power..
I think 'Brainstorm' from Doremi Fasol Latido is better, but both are storming space rock head bangers providing you just turn up the volume and go with the music rather than be technically analytical, but none of their stuff will stand much of that. I was a huge Hawkwind fan fron 1971 until they lost me with the Quark album and saw them live many times around the West Midlands, even chatting to the band before the show and the roadies after it. Great memories of teen years in a lost time.
Personally i discovered them on the masters of the universe album..but chronicle of the black sword is my fave album.
They played the Stonehenge free festival a few times ... Those where the days
The thing with hawkwind is that they are the the drug..but still nice to have a doob while listening mmmm❤
you got to react to them playing live when Lemmy was with them
here you go try this one ruclips.net/video/HdTFeW8FCto/видео.html
Try 'Brainstorm' from the 1972 BBC In Concert cd. The band are right on the edge of losing control but keep it together. The sound of that song as well as the opener, 'Born To Go' is like a herd of wildebeest stampeding down a oak staircase and across a parquet floor. Sheer madness.
You guys should do Silver Machine - by Hawkwind
Loads more HW to hear - so much great stuff
Speaking as the Lord of Darkness this brightened up my day. Best band in the galaxy.
Levitation and electric teepee are great records. Choose your Masques. The songs from Bob Calvert are Great!
as a lifelong Hawkwind fan keep it up guys, great review, try the song Computer Cowards from the Onward album
HAHAHAHAHA... Rich is confused, but Kel totally gets it!! A bit more like the "Silver Surfer" rather than the water skis! But she's right on it... ;--)
Oh my god... i can't believe you listening to hawkwind....this is your captain speaking your captain is dead ❤..hello hawk family if you here ..see you at the next gig ..we know what i talking about....there is no better fanbase than the hawk family..this is your captain speaking your captain is dead ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Funny you should mention water ski-ing ,I always think of the silver surfer
classic hawkwind 🤩
Dave Brock would love your reaction in my opinion..... could you do ORGONE ACCUMULATOR and/or WE TOOK THE WRONG STEP YEARS AGO
I just noticed that Light is misspelled on that album cover.
You flew the spaceship hawkwind so well kel 🚀👽🖖
Space ritual is great but am I the only one who loves Astounding Sounds Amazing Music the most?
I love astounding sounds, 👍😀
Did anyone else notice that it says 'LORD OF LIHGT' on the inset screen?
Great stuff, LEMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I remember seeing Hawkwind do the Space Ritual live whilst tripping on acid, that was some journey.
Hang on...can you keep all your hands visible at all times ...😂 love the wife's reacting...brilliant
In my opinion,Hawkwind are one of the few bands that sound better live than on a studio album.
I saw Hawkwind when Stella was dancing onstage with them back in the early seventies...
Stacia
