Hawkwind - Love In Space
02 Death Trap

Inventors of Space Rock, Hawkwind are quite possibly the ultimate British cult band of all time. Formed in the late sixties in the hippie enclave around London's Ladbroke Grove the band really came to the fore during the early seventies and have maintained a large and faithful following to this day. Despite countless line-up changes, Hawkwind have always maintained a solid, distinctive stage presence, their live shows becoming events in their own right. Never ones to shy away from showmanship the stage shows have been augmented by incredible lighting displays, dancers and guest performances. The heavy mix of fantasy, sci-fi and psychedelia is never anything less than breathtaking.

Love in Space was shot during Hawkwind's Alien 4 tour in 1995 and is comprised of the highlights taken from four venues -- Liverpool Royal Court, Manchester Academy, Bristol Colston Hall and Brixton Academy London. It shows the band at there most creative and over the top, with then frontman Ron Tree wearing a vast array of bizarre costumes designed specially for the tour alongside various performance artists. The band are paired down to a four piece but have lost non of the raw power one associates with archetypal Hawkwind as they rip through numbers both old and new, including some true classics. With the advantage of digitally re-mastered sound you not only get to see Hawkwind at there most outrageous you also get to hear them exactly as they should be heard - loud and proud!
