Reviews5 stars out of 5 -- "An inventive Eastern-tinged affair....It marked the band's evolution into a lyrically deft outfit that meshed perfectly with the impending new wave."
Often overlooked but a great moment in the Hawkwind canon. Sounds crisp and lively in the remastered audio version.. Has suffered from wrongly being suspected of jazz-rock leanings ('The Aubergine That Ate Rangoon') but don't forget this is the home to those absolute classics 'Steppenwolf' and 'Reefer Madness'. I especially like the trippy coda/outro of 'Kadu Flyer'. Bonus tracks are good fun and well worth getting this version for.
I went to see Hawkwind twice in 1976, and heard some of the tracks on this album, which was released in the same year. This is a great album by an excellent band, Hawkwind were at their best in the mid '70s, and made their mark on the decade.
I recommend this album to all fans of progressive and space rock!!
Not always thought to be one their best albums, but with top tunes as Steppenwolf, Kerb Crawler & one of my all time favourites Chronoglide Skyway its a must in my opinion..!
