Actually I never listened to Hawkwind but always wanted to because... you know they are the fathers of space rock. And these lists would be a great... err... list.
Music is some kind of art.

I would love to do a 1970 - 1974 compilation.

  1. Hurry On Sundown
  2. The Psychedelic Warlords
  3. Brainstorm
  4. Space is Deep
  5. You Shouldn't Do That
  6. Masters of the Universe
  7. We Took the Wrong Step Years Ago
  8. Silver Machine
  9. Seven by Seven
  10. Mirror of Illusion
I am currently digging:

Hawkwind, Rare Bird, Gong, Tangerine Dream, Khan, Iron Butterfly, and all things canterbury and hard-psych. I also love jazz!

Please drop me a message with album suggestions.

All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

As a fan of Hawkwind since 1972,  having heard every album the band has ever released and seeing them perform live 3 times, I would consider Hawkwind's best period would be from 1974 - 1993 (Best albums:  Hall of the mountain grille / Warrior on the edge of time / Quark strangeness & charm / Levitation / Church of Hawkwind / Sonic Attack / Choose you masques / Chronicle of the black sword / Xenon Code X / Space bandits / Electric Teepee).  

There are so many good Hawkwind tracks but here are 10 good "mind blowing"  ones:

(1) Psychedelic Warlords
(2) Assault & Battery/Golden Void
(3) Magnu
(4) Spirit of the age
(5) Levitation
(6) Angels of Death
(7) Waiting for tomorrow
(8) Sword of the east
(9) Images
(10) LSD

I loved how in the 80's & 90's they took some of their old songs and drastically increased the tempo...Since some live versions are very different than their studio counterparts, I also listed the album. 

1) Assault & Battery (Warrior on the Edge of Time)
2) Spirit of the Age (Quark, Strangeness, & Charm)
3) Moonglum (Live Chronicles)
4) Conjuration of Magnu/Magnu (Live Chronicles)
5) TV Suicide (California Brainstorm - Live)
6) Silver Machine (Friday Rock Show - Live [with Lemmy])
7) Back in the Box (Palace Springs - Live)
8) High Rise (Hawklords Live)
9) PSI Power (Hawklords)
10) Motorway City (Levitation)
