On Friday 26 May this year, Hawkwind returned to Londons legendary Roundhouse venue in Chalk Farm for the first time in 40 years. It was also some 45 years after the band famously performed at the venue (captured for posterity on the Greasy Truckers Party album), where they recorded the hit version of Silver Machine. Six months on, this amazing, historic show is captured for posterity within a deluxe, celebratory box set which boasts audio and audio-visual versions of the entire performance. The set-list blends highlights from Hawkwinds last two acclaimed, Top 40 albums The Machine Stops and Into The Woods with classics from the bands past. Yes, it was really good fun playing back at The Roundhouse, explains Hawkwinds band leader Dave Brock. After not playing there since 1977 (when we had Motorhead support us), it brought back many fine memories for me. Great venue!! The show climaxed with guest guitarist Phil Wizzo Campbell (Motörhead, The Bastard Sons) joining the band for encore performances of Brainbox Pollution and Silver Machine, the hit version of which was recorded at the Roundhouse back in 1972. The concert is captured across two CDs and the event can also be enjoyed via a DVD, which reveals an amazing lightshow by John Moules.

I Wanted To Like This.....
I wanted to like this but the DVD picture is very pixelated and the sound is very quiet. Enough has been said about Mr Dibbs so I won't go there. Like others have said it could have been done so much better.Update: I have read that the DVD was added as an extra after fans asked the band for it. On it's own it would not have been acceptable but as an added extra I can live with it.

IF NOTHING ELSE...GET THIS FOR THE DVD!
One of the best Hawkwind DVDs available. No fancy camera work...no farty effects...no unneeded close ups, just one fixed camera giving a great view of the stage. This DVD shows off the brilliant light show by the ever excellent John Moules to perfection!...Just put on the DVD and turn out the lights .....and be amazed!

Have you seen them? Yes ,or no you have to hear them!
Simply stunning. An aural treat that will lead you out of the shadows, and into the woods via outer space, and your inner mind. Turn on, turn up and drift away.
