WARRIOR ON THE EDGE OF TIME

The enjoyment of this record comes from the sonic attack that Hawkwind had. A little bit of the 60s living on in the 70s. The songs stripped bare are very simple and it's the dressing of them which are superb. Why 'Magnu's' riff hasn't gone into the iconic riffs for all guitarists alongside Smoke on the Water is a mystery. The other more serious problem is the inbetween tracks. They are just too noodly jam fillers to last serious listening and they get a bit tiresome like Floyd's 'On the Run' or 'Any Colour You Like'. Still, this CD is overdue a re-release for the treasures it does contain. We can't all afford ebay prices for this rarity.
