Various- Hawkwind Triad (2010)

So there was a moment I had in high school, at a friends house, lets say there were substances involved. Anywhoo, at some point in the evening my buddy Billy throws a record on. I start to notice that every note is syncing up with the television, every note screams as if it is a journey unto itself. Next thing I know I'm cruise at a million miles an hour through the universe and back. Mind blown. That was my first foray into the genre known as Psychedelia and the band was Hawkwind.  Love 'em or hate 'em, you can deny the impact Hawkwind have had on music and musicians alike. They gave us Lemmy for christ sake! Had he done the right kind of drugs Motorhead may never have happen! Hawkwind Triad is a three part tribute from Neurot Records. Oh, and it rules pretty freakin' hard. Featuring Steve Von Till's folk rock space odyssey Harvestman, North Carolina's own U.S. Christmas, and the Sanford Parker lead Minsk, ...Triad offers some rather beefy, and incredible, versions of Hawkwind classics. Personal favorite added below! Had this been what I heard oh so many years ago I may have had a slightly different experience! Turn down the lights, throw on Planet Earth on Blu-Ray, and turn this sucker up loud!
