Of course!  Hawkwind is the best underground psychedelic space-rock
heavy metal new wave SF (oops, I should say Sci-Fi) punk band ever to
exist!

	Hawkwind possess one of the strongest cult followings in the
	entire history of Brit heavy rock.  Sheer fanatacism is the
	hallmark of the band's faithful.  -- Kerrang! (A truly reputable
	rag...)

Also, Nik Turner's album "Sphinx" is probably the best space music I've
ever heard.  Robert Calvert's albums "Freq" and "Captain Lockheed and
the Starfighters" are also quite good.  Anyone have anything to say
about any other Hawkwind related albums?  (Motorhead need not be
mentioned...)  They're pretty damned difficult to find in the U.S.  It's
too bad I don't live in England so I could follow them all over the
country and be a HawkHead!  Anyone have any good ideas on how to
convince them to come here?
