- Thank you to John W for his donation and request! You rock bro :D
This was awesome!! So many different genres that I have not heard yet in the 70s sense... I heard like proto punk and trance and psychedelia and even desert rock! I can't believe it worked. But it fucking sure as hell did man. Wow.

Simon King- The greatest drummer no one has heard of.
Totally agree.
Long after Simon left Hawkwind they needed a new drummer, Simon turned up and they said he had to pass an audition. He told them to piss off, and never drummed again..
@@powerdavid6235 NOT ENTIRELY TRUE! His heroin habit was frowned upon and votes against him defined the leaving of Simon. (see BBC doc of the band) Im a drummer of 43 years and it was the "Warrior" album that inspired me to advance my Head Banging in 1975..ish.
The Space Ritual, one of the best live albums of all time. Hawkwind were a London band. Most people refer to them as Space Rock. Lemmy is the bass player on this album.
Space rock... I dig it. That's a much better title than what I called it. That's so cool he is the bass player I had no idea.
Not one of the best, THE best. Don't bother with the new re-mix as Lemmy has been mixed down too much. The Sunderland Lorano Ritual show is cool though !
I like both versions, the new mix/master separates the instruments more so i really enjoy being able to hear things that I hadn't heard before.@@hawkboy451
And. Please remember that these guys had their roadies nail 4x2 timbers to the front of the stage so that they didn’t fall on top of us. Not because they couldn’t stay upright, but because they were so out of it! Seriously, some of the best gigs I’ve ever seen. Glastonbury 1981, for example. The then drummer was one Ginger Baker, who you may have heard of, threw his sticks into the crowd and stormed off stage. Only to return for a blistering ‘Masters of the Universe. Just as that second microdot kicked.
I saw Ginger Baker at Guildford (Surrey University) being grabbed from behind and pulled off his kit by a crazed audience member. The stage was only a plinth there.@@graemem111
"Without Hawkwinds song Brainstorm there would have been no sex pistols" john Lydon (Johnny Rotten)
It's worth mentioning that Hawkwind are still gigging and recording - their last album came out a few months ago and is fantastic. So glad you liked it - it's the best live album of all time, in lots of people's opinion (mine included!)
Saw their April 4th 2024 gig at Manchester's academy; the first since I took my daughter to a benefit gig of theirs at Jillies Rock World in Manchester, almost 30 years to the day for her then 18th birthday. Prior to that I used to see them every year from their Space Ritual gig (Blackburn Kings Hall) Xmas 1972 (that blew my mind and sealed them as my all time favourite band) up to their Chronicles of the Black Sword tour (Apollo Theatre Manchester), then life got in the way.
@@stephenbrown318 Chronicles was a brilliant show saw it at the Liverpool Empire the same week. Only thing I missed was the original ritual at the stadium. Some of the best and most memorable nights of my life.
"that bass player"' was Lemmy, an exceptional bass player by anyones standards
He was a lead guitarist for sam gopal..check that album out its mint ..the bassist never turned up for a gig one night ..dave brock said grab that bass and play something in e ❤
@@lemmy9809that wasn't Dave. It was Nik Turner who said that
This song is the perfect example of “the power of the groove.” It ain’t hyper-technical, it isn’t super showy. It locks into that motorik groove and just carries ya!
"it was like star trek, with long hair and drugs" Lemmy
Considered by many the best live album of all time and by far the best album cover of all time, what you're seeing is one of six panels, the backside is full of cosmic wisdom from the ages. The cover was done by the late great Barney bubbles as were the covers for their albums in search of space and warrior on the edge of time. P. S. If you stare at the goddess on the covers third eye long enough you will come to realize that the outlines on each side of her form a hawk's beak and wing.
The Leeds date on this tour was my first ever music gig as a 17 year old. My mind was truly blown, particularly when the entire concert was released on the double album Space Ritual. 50 years and many thousands of minutes of music later it remains the best live album I have ever heard.
The Blackburn leg of this tour was also my first ever live gig at the age of 16. :)
I bought my first Hawkwind album (Masters of the Universe compilation album) ) purely on the cover art and track names - I'd never heard of them before.
They're still may favourite band now - 45 years later!
Exactly the same story for me !!!
It was the only way to choose a record in those days.
Welcome to Space Rock. Hawkwind, along with Gong and Here & Now played loads of free gigs (sometimes outside festivals) and worked with Science Fiction writer Michael Moorcock as The Hawklords. They also features a 6ft topless Amazonian lady called Stacia who danced on stage throughout their gigs. As mentioned below, Lemmy Kilminster wa son bass and went on to form Motorhead.
Stacia went totally nude with paint
Let's not forget the mighty Pink Fairies
Must do Orgone Accumulator!!
My favorite!!
ditto@@Raiderblack
@@Raiderblack and mine
Lemmy talking about taking up playing bass with Hawkwind " I just don't play like a bass player. There are complaints about me from time to time. It's not like having a bass player; it's like having a deep guitarist". In Search of Space and Space Ritual were among my favourite albums at the time.
Welcome to the world of Simon King on drums. Together with Lemmy and Dave Brock, they were unstoppable back in the day. Simon retired in 1980, aged 33 or thereabouts!
This whole album is amazing
I definitely want to hear more from this album. I might just keep going track by track...
Hawkwind with Huw Lloyd Langton is my fav era...79-88 Rip Huw
This is your captain speaking your captain is dead ❤
A space ritual alive in Liverpool and London was an 18-month long LSD fueled tour of psychedelic madness that featured dancers strobes and all kinds of lighting effects from their own lighting company that to toured with them called liquid Len and the lensmen, along with the album it's been called the best tour of all time.
the whole (double) album & the live show were a concept piece - each track following seamlessly with spoken interludes & poems performed by Bob Calvert - - there is not a bad track on the whole thing, its a masterpiece by a band at the height of their powers after several years playing extended LSD fuelled jams at festivals & free shows. Yes highly influential - cited by both Johnny Rotten & Jello Biafra amongst others.
Try their second album album " In search of Space " - The standout tracks are "You shouldn't do that," and "Master of the Universe". It is not Lemmy of Motorhead fame on bass this time though. Their first album "Hawkwind" is a bit patchy tbh, and their third album "Doremi Faso Latido" is a slightly mixed bag, but it has the wonderful Brainstorm on it.
Space Ritual is by far their best work, and there are roughly similar live versions of it - Greasy Truckers Party, and Live at the BBC 1972. The BBC show is exceptionally weird, and a little "frightening" for want of a better word. The stereo version is on UA-cam now. The other early album to look out for is "Warrior on the edge of time". It is more of a prog sound than the previous "grungy space punk stuff," but it is VERY entertaining and weird . The killer song for me is "Dying Seas", but Magnu is also excellent.
Magnu horse with golden mane, I need your help yet once again!
Many modern artists were influenced or were fans of Hawkwind, this and Slade alive by slade are the two best live albums ever, been to many many Hawkwind concerts since 1974 to this day, and they never disappoint
Stacia was a goddess. This was so far out for its time. Lemmy was born to play bass.
Hawkwind are still going more than 50 years after the Mothership first lifted off. They have changed their line up so many times as wellas their sound.
Noted Members and Guests over the years are Nik Turner (RIP), Bob Calvert (RIP), Lemmy (RIP), Ginger Baker and Micheal Moorcock (the Sci Fi Author).
A syou are a Drummer, you may appreciate the Levitation LP with Ginger Baker on Drums.
Stoner rock sums it up nicely. I first saw them in 1971 age 15. Changed my life. Wait until you hear Brainstorm and Shouldn't do that from In Search of Space. Still a favourite album after all these years. You'll have fun with this. Nice one mate.
Excellent band. Hurry on Sundown is a classic.
Man, another band with 50 years of back catalogue to explore. Most of it amazing. Try Chronicles of the Black Sword, Levitation, and Live 79 albums and Space is Deep (the song). Those were my hazy trippy go-to songs back in the day ❤
YES, hardly ever see Man reactions. Many are called but few get up is an all time classic
I've fallen into so many damn rabbit holes lately... and I'm allergic to rabbits in real life so I'm getting a little red eyed... wait that was the edible nvm 🙂
Probably best to stay off the edibles when listening to Hawkwind, the music’s freaky enough.
Just listening now. Used to listen to them after “consuming” back in the late 80s with joss sticks and shrouded lights. Space is deep indeed 🎶🎶😍🤪 😂🎉❤ Their contemporaries, Gong and Steve Hillage, were the godfathers of trance. Later, Hillage formed System 7, still putting out very hard techno ❤❤❤
One of my top Hawkwind tunes, "Spirit of the Age". Space rock pinnacle.
another fave band of mine, this whole LP is astounding
The whole album (Space Ritual) is probably the best Live Album ever! I've been into Hawkweed since 1972 (In Search of Space).
Orgone Accumulator is amazing.
There isn't a bad song on the two vinyl discs recorded in 1972 and released in 1973. And that's Lemmy on bass.
Hawkwind til I die!
You don’t headbang to Hawkwind.
You Dance. ❤
saw Hawkwind at the Royal Albert Hall back in September with the Crazy World of Arthur Brown, great gig.
During their performances back then they had a dancer on stage with them, her name was stacia, she was 6'2 smoking hot with gigantic....tracks of land
Hawkwind were huge in the UK in the 70s while still remaining underground. Basically they were the UK equivalent of the Grateful Dead, although much heavier musically. Going to a Hawkwind show was a rite of passage for any kid wanting to run off with the circus so to speak 😂
This is the greatest live album of all time imho
Its about time the next generation discovered Hawkwind. They are still going, well the surviving members are all in different Hawkbands. But they won't last forever. the 70's albums are all good, the 80's had highs and lows, the 90's had some real treats with newer members. My personal fave is Distant Horizons. Lately its all been a bit formulaic but the hardcore fans still love it all.
Time We Left This World Today is my favorite one on this live set... better than the studio version imo
monster magnet basically a hawkwind tribute band as they admit
Best version of ‘Born to Go ‘ is the version off Greasy Truckers … Mind blowing
You should hear the remastered versions from the box set of 12 disks all dedicated to this amazing album, that includes the full set from the three gigs that were recorded. The original Space Ritual album was a mix of the London and Liverpool Gigs, with Space Ritual Volume 2 released twelve years later with other mixes from the same two gigs. The third gig played at Sunderland was never released until the box set in 2022. Each gig has slight difference for each of the tracks (obviously as it was live). Brilliant album.
Nice to see you enjoying the great bands of the 70s, it was a very creative time.
Definitely a big influence on stoner and grunge, they were included in the official Nirvana Tribute album. One of the QOTSA members is a big fan.
Got to see them 4 times over the years.
You Shouldn’t Do That, from In Search Of Space and well really the whole album… and Warrior on the Edge of Time.. both glorious albums
Favourite live album of all time. The singer/lyricist Robert Calvert... his story is amazing. I think there's a cool documentary about him online too.
This is by far their best album. Studio record wise: X In Search Of Space, DoremiFasolLatido, Hall of the Mountain Grill and Warrior on the Edge of Time are all really great.
Still going strong
I was at the space ritual concert with my then girlfriend December 1972 liverpool stadium
My first Hawkwind album was Doremi Fasol Latido, with time we left and lord of light and more great stuff I call the genre “heavy metal space punk”
1973 - Welcome to 'Spacerock'
Good one. I also highly recommend this album, especially the tracks Orgone Accumulator and Master of the Universe
Master of the Universe is a force from beyond ❤
Check out Hawkwind's live album "Live Seventy Nine" if you want to hear Hawkwind go off! It's ballistic.
This sprawling double live album acted as a testament to all things riff-laden and unutterably heavy. - The Rough Guide to Rock
Sticking just to the 70's for now:
In Search of Space (1971) is one of the greatest Space Rock albums EVER.
"Stasis: The U.A. Years" and "Parallel Universe" collect essentials, including non-album cuts and whatnot, from this era. "Seven By Seven" is one of my favorites.
Afterwards, "Warrior on the Edge of Time", "Quark, Strangeness and Charm", "PXR5", and "Live 79" are key albums. The conceptual "Warrior" features sci-fi/fantasy writer Michael Moorcock. The band's own mercurial visionary Robert Calvert is on the next two.
Good to see you getting into it, soundtrack to my misspent youth…. Line up of the band has never been set in stone, but this was considered by many to be their most powerful incarnation. Dave Brock on guitar and vocals, Simon King on drums, Del Dettmar on synth, Dik Mik on audio sqibbly bits, Lemmy on bass, Nik Turner on sax and vocals and though not appearing on this track was Bob Calvert too, who did spoken word stuff and some vocals. There was also Stacia, the famously buxom and occasionally naked dancer and visual artist to help set the scene. Lots of pot, acid, speed and associated chemicals were part of the scene, a hugely influential but often overlooked band from back in the day.
Recently picked up the double vinyl album while visiting Belfast and off to see them again later in the year although rumors this might be the last year of touring.
My brother and me both had out of body experiences listening to this; oh yes, we were also smoking some temple ball
In my top 10 albums is space ritual,,#1 live album
Ya man.. the late Lemmy of Motorhead fame was in Hawkwind. I was turned on to Hawkwind, indirectly by Monstermagnet. Wyndorf, the lead singer in an interview for the magazine Hit Parader, Circus...or whatever was citing Hawkwind as his main influence, and that his brother used to smoke weed in his room listening to Space Ritual and it was the 'coolest shit'. Monstermagnet did a cover of 'Brainstorm'...so like you, had to jump in that rabbit hole.. but I had to special order most if not all the albums because you couldnt find them in record stores and the internet/yt was not yet a thing.
HW don’t get the kudos they deserve for their consistently ahead of the game proto metal/punk/new wave output
check out ‘The Psychedelic Warlords (Disappear in Smoke)’
Yep, this is live. The band were out of their heads on drugs. The audience were out of their heads on drugs. Just imagine the blend of weird energies in the venue, and this recording was the result.
There's some great stuff on Warrior on the Edge of Time. Pretty much everything except the Michael Moorcock spoken tracks are amazing on that one. Also some good stuff on Quark, Strangeness and Charm, which feels at times like a different genre (Hawkwind constantly experimented and reinvented their sound). From the Hawkwind Anthology (I think) is a wonderful live version of Spirit of the Age. And (I know this is a minority opinion) I really like a bunch of the stuff from The Xenon Codex.
Also, if you're a fan of the Elric books at all, the Chronicle of the Black Sword is a must.
saw them in 1980 levitation tour hammersmith odeon, new dik mik r.i.p ended up a painter and decorator
I was there too, upstairs in the circle. A friend invited them to come play at our local pub, they accepted, but the floor space was the size of a double garage. They managed to squeeze in and play -we were treated to our own gig -less than 50 people (mostly standing in the car park) - good times!
"90 minutes of brain damage" Lemmy
2 drummers on this album i think dude . . .
no the two drummers were on warrior and astounding few yrs later this is simon king on drums
John Lydon said Punk Rock officially started with Hawkwind- Brainstorm, nuff said 😂 They remastered the Space Ritual this year on the 50th Anniversary!!!
Not to take anything away from Simon King, but the drumming was inspired by Klaus Dinger of Kraftwerk and Neu! The style is called "motorik." Dave Brock himself has stated that they were influenced by Neu! and probably Kraftwerk, as well. If you are unaware, Kraftwerk was a much different band in the beginning.
No studio version of Born to Go has been released by Hawkwind... check out Monster Magnet's cover for that.
HAWKWIND 50 YRS TOUR HAPPENED 4 YRS AGO. THEY HAVE SO MANY GREAT TRACKS ITS HARD TO LIST. But please "react" on air live to PARADOX..(I Wanna see if you get the philosophical meaning!) Ill drop few more at end. But as a fellow drummer you MUST see/hear my fav drum solos growing up in 70's. 1) Don Brewer (the triplet king) in 1975. called T.N.U.C. by Grand Funk. 2) TOAD by CREME (Ginger Baker) 1968. 3) "MOBY DICK" by LED ZEP. 4) "THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN ARM" by THE SWEET. Now then.................................................................................................(eye space).....................................................................................................................................................................HAWKWIND tracks that "stand out....1) ITS SO EASY. 2) SPIRAL GALAXY 25968. 3) SPIRIT OF THE AGE. 4) LEVITATION. 5) HASSIN I SABA (for the pot heads in the audience in 1977!) 6) NIGHT OF THE HAWKS. (A true song about the WHOLE band tripping on LSD when the huge tent they were playing a gig in SLOWLYcollapsed..leading to poor guitarist so freaked out thinking "we are all gonna die" so he dropped to knees and prayed...as the earth below swallowed up the 300 ppl crowd! (shown in a great watch BBC doc of the band) I have many more great songs...but ASK and I shall educate you! Like my fav song to cover bash out live...."PSYCHOTIC REACTION...by COUNT 5". Ahh...such good times!
Celebrating their 50th year in 2022, this is Born To Go still in their set and watch the spectacular light show. I managed a couple of shows on the tour and it was fantastic. Founder member Dave Brock is now 82 and I believe he was 79 on the tour. Legend. ua-cam.com/video/bMGbZvULPJo/v-deo.html&pp=ygUpSGF3a3dpbmQgbGl2ZSA1MHloIGFubml2ZXJzYXJ5IEJvcm4gVG8gR28%3D
I used to boom Born To Go in my apartment every morning before I went off to college. I even had speakers in the bathroom...but the real question I ask people is, what's the lead instrument on this cut? because LEMMY kills it on lead/bass. I guess our listener never heard him before.
Other tracks by Hawkwind? Pick any at random from the first 5 albums (4 studio and live double). They are all 'out of this world'.
Sometimes it's a good idea to research a band and their discography before reviewing and commenting. This album was in the works before Space Ritual came into this, it's final form. Some of it was recorded earlier on another album. To say it's got some riffs by such and such band is rather funny. Especially when it predates said band. But what do I know. Many punk bands and artists have given due credit to Hawkwind for influencing them. Check out Nik Turner's spinoff band Inner City Unit sometime.
✌️ from inner, and outer space.
Bro, you misheard whatever you heard 😅 this was a request from a Patron who filled me in on some details. He said this band was a huge influence on MULTIPLE genres and was a huge inspiration for punk and other genres.
Loved how much you enjoyed this.
As Lemmy once said. 'It's a bit like Bach, but a lot more violent'.
For me, this album represents the pinnacle of human musical achievement, it's all been downhill since.
Best heard, extremely loud via some TDL TL speakers. Lemmy's bass will actually play up and down your ribcage :).
Try 'You shouldn't do that', same album if you haven't already :).
As I said in chat, I saw Hawkwind at the Parr Hall Warrington, Cheshire, UK some years ago, What a totally whacky bunch there were, almost as weird as the Bonzo dog doo dah band. Also used a theremin,,,,,,, weird.
Lemmy on bass mate ;)))
Check out The Psychadelic Warlords
This is Hawkwind genre.
mate thats LEMMY on the bass as in motorhead .......
Best H album ever bought. Try Space is deep
Loving what you do... please start on the Album Sonic attack.
Sus out orgone accumulator on that same live album
Welcome to 1972
Hawkwind is a deep and fruitful rabbit hole to travel, a very influential sound. The bassist from this iteration of the band went on to form Motorhead.
I had no idea that was lemmy. That's awesome! This was innovative as hell. I can already tell.
@@L33ReactsSo much more awaits ❤❤❤
Don't go looking for the studio version, it doesn't exist. LOL
They were on acid. For drummer can be specially difficult.
Those tracking visuals would be mad 😂
Think it was recorded in 1973
Craziness... so ahead of its time
Go listen to silver machine now that you’re dipping into Hawkwind. Lemmy of Motörhead doing his only vocal turn with Hawkwind.
not his only vocal turn , he sang on the watcher , lost johnny and the hawkwind version of motorhead
It's not Punk at all this is 1972' and crappy Punk started in 1978'.
This is Classic Space Prog and Hawkwind invented it Lee, and the Spacy sounds are from the Glorious "Audio Generator" by Dik Mik 👍🎹⌨🎶
And "Space Ritual" is of the greatest Top 5 Live albums of the 1970s, one of Classic Progs Best ! 🎼✌
The original punk scene started in 75-76 and was pretty much dead by 78. Wind had some strong proto-punk elements to them - I remember seeing Nik Turner's Inner City Unit that was basically his own punk band.
Just gonna go ahead and say it, the *insert random stuff here* reacts is boring. Its like a half assed try to create something on your own. Maybe try and be creative and do something :)
Just gonna go ahead and say it, the dumb ass comments that's accomplish nothing and take up space on some server somewhere for no reason. Maybe go ahead and create your own channel? Maybe you'll be successful? Maybe don't be a cocksandwich. I don't know. That's just me though.
@@L33Reacts Maybe you can make a reaction video to my comment?
@Guitarninjaruy are you just mad you only have 4 subs? It's OK man. Just work hard every day and you'll get where I am ❤️
@@L33Reacts What is this cringe you keep typing? 😂
Hawkwind is a late 60s band like pink Floyd, these were space trippers first album ir hawkwind mirror of illustrations, seven seconds of forever ,space ritual is a double album , there's masters of the universe, levitation, earth calling,ep valuim 10, silvermachine lemmy from motor head was In them for a while but got locked up n missed the tour 💙, edge of reality, big list but they are a old band older then u think check them out you be best getting there box cds
That's space ritual cover
Lemmy
What he thinks is a theremin is DikMik's audio generator. The punk movement was heavily influenced by Hawkwind as both Johnny Rotten and the Clash were big fans. Nearly all the bands he mentions came much later and were to a greater or lesser extent influenced by them. They were never hippies and really the only thing 'punk' about them was their attitude to pretty much everything especially the music press. It was recorded live with virtually NO studio overdubs. They had rehearsed this for many, many months before taking it on the road an dit gives lie to the belief then and now that they were a bunch of stumbling, bumbling stoned, untogether hippies. Totally professional.
very well rehearsed was that tour. Have you seen the BBC doc on them? Funny and informative although Brock (our Captain) didnt take part as Nik Turner was in it during the legal rift when Nik tried touring with ex members called "EX HAWKWIND". BROCK HAD COPY RIGHTED THE NAME HAWKWIND...SO SUED NIK!
A very underrated band. Late 60s early 70s. Innovative. Creative. Some of the best rock EVER.
Still going strong!
Current lineup is very powerful
I saw them during this tour in 72 and did an interview for our uni radio station with the bassist who was none other than Lemmy, later of Motorhead. We drank a bottle of wine together and I met the whole band. Amazing band and amazing concert. You need to listen to the whole album.
Are you serious?? That's fucking awesome dude. Having a drink with lemmy. I can only imagine haha good on you bro.
@@L33Reacts Totally serious. A couple of us from the radio station also went to interview an almost unknown band playing at our uni. They'd made their first TV appearance the evening before. Turned out to be Queen and we interviewed Roger Taylor and John Deacon but also chatted with Freddy and Brian. Great times.
Hawkwind...trip to space,every album is gold,love this band
Do some more research into the band dude..... btw that was Lemmy from Motorhead on bass. It was 1972 and way before all the bands that you name checked .....
Also, the this was the first track on the album and it only got better from here. If you want one morerecommendation from this album I suggest Orgone Accumulator. But I really recommend listening to the whole album from start to finish. The way the music flows with intermittent ‘poetry’ by Bob Calvert providing the odd break, it is a work of genius.
This is the lineup for the band on this album…
Hawkwind
edit
Dave Brock - guitar; vocals (tracks 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 13, 15)
Nik Turner - saxophone, flute; vocals (tracks 2, 19, 20)
Lemmy (Ian Kilmister) - bass guitar; vocals (tracks 6, 7, 13, 15)
Dik Mik (Michael Davies) - audio generator, electronics
Del Dettmar - synthesizer
Simon King - drums
Robert "Bob" Calvert - poetry, vocals ("poet and swazzle" on the album credits) (tracks 4, 6, 9, 11, 14)
Stacia - dancer and visual artist (often danced in the nude! - this was the early seventies in England!)
Stacia! ❤❤
Stacia ❤️ eh I mean... wow so many members! That's awesome. They have quite the original and unique sound. I definitely want to hear more!
Yes, saw her ‘in all her glory’ at Hammersmith Ocean in the mid seventies.
A great live album from 1973. "Brainstorm" and "Seven by Seven" are personal favourites. Of the 2 venues used Brixton Sundown is still there I think, now the Brixton Academy, but Liverpool Stadium is long gone.
Brainstorm is a monster, especially live. When those chords cut in 🔥
Try Orgone Accumulator from the same album. Lemmy's bass is fantastic
