I was down the local HMV, and saw that they had quite a selection. Are there any that would be recommended, or should I run and hide from them all?
1971 In Search of Space
1972 Doremi Fasol Latido
1973 Space Ritual
1974 Hall of the Mountain Grill
1975 Warrior on the Edge of Time
1976 Roadhawks (compilation)
1977 Quark, Strangeness and Charm
1990 Stasis: The U.A. Years
If you see any of these buy them, they are very good.
Do note that there are literally hundreds of compilations/live albums that have been released down the years that are seriously naff and should be avoided at all costs.
Obviously if you like these then you might wanna delve deeper, there is plenty of other good stuff but these are the "core" albums that seem to keep the Hawkwind flame alive.
The above albums have all been repackaged for CD and do come with extra tracks etc and are good value for money...obviously vinyl complete with sleeves that fold out into shields etc are preferable.
This list will give you an idea of the amount of product available

These are by no means complete lists...Collecting Hawkwind records is slightly harder than collecting Sisters records
