   Hey, what are everyone's opinions on "America's Oldest Spacerock Band"? 
I have heard (but do not own) the Life On Earth album which is a masterpiece of spacerock and should please any Hawkwind fan. It features hard driving (punk influence perhaps?) space rock with some elements of avant-garde jazz.
I own the 1/13/83 cd-r of a radio show they did. It just have Doug "Dr. Synth" Walker and Louis Boone on synths doing a Tangerine Dream/Klaus Schulze kind of thing. Very interesting.

There must be other fans of this excellent band here, speak up for yourselves!

EDIT: Oh, and RIP Doug Walker
