2951 Hawklords (Hawkwind) - (Only) The Dead Dreams of the Cold War Kid

From: 25 Years On; Year: 1978; Genre: Progressive Rock/Space Rock

I spent much of last night listening to Hawkwind; this often overlooked album from the band was one that I focused on a lot.
Anyway, for this album alone for some reason, (but widely thought of from a legal battle over ownership of the band's name), they decided to release it as the Hawklords instead; the next album, PXR5, they went back to the original band name of Hawkwind. All in all despite all of this the album is just as good as their other material from this time period. This one has a bit of a Crosby, Stills, and Nash feel to it, but with a definite heavy British Progressive Rock edge to it.
