There's two I like on here including Nik's debut with help from some of the Gong guys and Warrior On The Edge Of Time which I picked.

All are excellent, but Warrior of the Edge of Time gets my vote.

I'll remember to include Nik Turner's "I Do What I Like" album in the Ultimate Hawkwind 2020-2022 poll. Thumbs Up

Astounding for sure. Cool tunes on this.
Warrior is pretty average. Sounds like a band from 1970 with some promise. Doesn’t sound like a 1975 album. It’s better than anything they did before it though
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.

This poll is a little bit easier for me. 

"Warrior on the Edge of Time" is the stand out album here IMHO, and the end of an era.

I'd love to have included that album too but I couldn't find a link for it on YouTube - only a brief album trailer and the title track. Confused

Warrior was the last lp on UA and the last lp with Lemmy so really belongs with Hall of the mountain grill and the preceding UA lps. Their time at Charisma heralded a very different sound but equally edgy feel (with the sacking of Nik Turner and the return of Robert Calvert).

So i've got to pick Warrior as its a stone cold classic. But ive also got to pick Quark as the herald of the new sound.. i also really really love Astounding too.. and Hawklords 25 years.. and even PXR5 (i know it was cobbled together to fulfill the Charisma contract but, c'mon, its got Robot, High rise, Uncle Sam's on Mars, Death Trap....!!)
