I read the logbook too before dawn & have never been the same since. Still love my weed & shoom's but I've mostly always used psychedelics for spiritual development.

Disappointed he didn't mention meeting John Lewis who became Jona Lewie later on. I was Jona's girlfriend at the time, we had been busking in the Leicester Square area and had ended up in a pub by the square. There was a piano and Jona gravitated towards it and played a mean boogie-woogie on it. Then this busker asked if he could join in and a jam session took place. They got on so well they decided to do some gigs together. A while later they stopped gigging because the other guy said that he was putting a band together and couldn't gig any more. That band was Hawkwind ... and he was Dave Brock.

I almost crashed into Dave when he was leaving a benefit gig for paraplegics at Gillies in Manchester (1994). I'd taken my daughter for her 18th birthday (on my XJ900) and we were leaving the venue. I used to park my bike outside the main entrance as the bouncers used to look after the bikes. I was dismounting the pavement when Dave's taxi pulled out and I ended up leaning against the taxi window looking directly into Dave's face. Saw most off Hawkwind's concerts from Space Ritual to that gig. in '94

deepinder cheema If it's true it makes him a bit of a paranoid control freak but I was always told it was simply down to Nik being involved. I was Hawkwind a couple of weeks ago in Warrington, it was ok but nothing like previous gigs I've seen. There's a member, Mr Dibs, and he sings most of the set, I don't like the guy, if he just played bass and shut up I could handle him. Dave Brock is now in his 70s and taking much more of a backseat, I don't think he'll be touring for much longer.

Just been reading what people have said about Dave Brock. First thing he started Hawkwind in the 60s hes the only person who has stayed in the band and has tryed to run it as a bissness. Hes not rich as he has always put others first ie fans before family how many people would tour for 40+ years. If you look at most rock bands you will see the same sort of thing ie kiss black Sabbath so on so. No one has said shit this is one of the only real space rock bands going they should be like led zeppelin in the eyes of the public media maybe this will happen soon as my father is in his 70s. Hope this was to the point I get on with Nik turner but he did cause shit.

He's the only person to stay in the band because he got rid of everyone else. If you think the turgid regurgitation that Hawkwind have been producing since 1982 is great then fair enough, but compared to the 70s when greats like Nik Turner and Bob Calvert were in the band it's a pale imitation.

First Hawk album bought was Hall of the Mountain Grill, then went backwards to get the back catalogue and forward to Warrior etc. Kind of lost then urge after Warrior, but still bought the albums! Damn those formative years!! In late 50's now and starting to get into later stuff, Chronicles, Xenon and actually think Blood of the Earth is trippy - the instrumentals are total trips under the influence! Space Ritual is the best album I have ever heard. Great interview, and good backup to the written history. Would you believe the only guy ever to agree with me is the guy my wife hooked up with after I left! Poor lady - possibly the only woman to marry two Hawk freaks without ever realising it!!

When I almost got fleeced out of a weeks wage, to go to a festival, that was headlined by Hawkwindx not Hawkwind C.O. Nick Turner making the flyer look like Hawkwind (the x was tiny and mixed up with other symbols and letters), It was my business. The real Hawkwind sued Guilford Festival and won. I guess a lot of people were conned. Dave has worked hard with Hawkwind for 40 odd years. Nick needs to stop ruining it for people. Call his band something else, Dave suggested Hawkestra at the reunion gig?

The problem was with Nik turner using Hawkwind as his bands name when he had not been in them for years sort of fraud ripping people off in the U.S.A.

That's certainly not how my friends and i viewed "Space Ritual." They blew our minds, Dettmar was on electronics, it was better than anything Brock has done since the 80s (and i am a fan).

Question from non-English speaking: What is "Gasbo"? Dave said he work at 7:50

The interview was going really well....then when the interviewer got to some of the most interesting of all Hawkwind times...namely the 3 main Bob Calvert driven albums Quark, PXR5 & 25 Years On , he skipped right over that period, then also managed to skip over most of the period from after Levitation to 'Stonehenge 84' too.....Totally baffled why no questions were asked of Dave during those important times.......Those were some of the most amazing albums ever.......The interviewer totally missed the boat.

Yeah I did wonder why some of that stuff was skipped over.
