See previous post (below) photo of 'The Wall'. Because today's track ties in to one of the bands who appeared at the Hastings Pier on Saturday 1st September, 1973 - tickets 99p !  
The band with bassist Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister on vocals are 'In Search of Space' psychedelic rock outfit Hawkwind. Anyone ever see them live ?
Their best known number is 'Silver Machine' - joss sticks lit, then away we go >


Science fiction author Michael Moorcock and dancer Stacia (Blake) also contributed to the band.

  1. I saw Hawkwind about that era with Lemmy. I pretty sure it was at The Three Fishes Kingston, I will check the diaries! D

    1. They played loads of gigs. At Hobbits Garden, Croydon Greyhound and Fairfield Halls. Also the Toby Jug and curiously Wandsworth Prison !
