117.0. "What no track?" by SUBURB::DANCEA (Hacking is my business...) Fri Jun 17 1988 16:57

I have recently bought the new Hawkwind album "The Xenon CodeX" on CD.

On the  back it lists 10 tracks, but when I put the little round disc in the
player onlt 9 come up.

I don't  know  which  one it is that is missing, but I know for sure that on
the record there is deffinately 10 tracks.

I didn't actually notice this, untill I mentioned to a friend that I got the
whole album on one side of a C90.

He then  said I must have a track missing as he tried to get the record onto
tape and it didn't fit on one side of the same tape.

Well theres the background,

Any help  in finding out whether I have a duff CD or if it's the same on all
CD's is much appreciated.

117.1Was it that long ago ?AYOU11::S_GOUDIEGonna cry 96 tearsSat Jun 18 1988 10:4415
    
    
    Hello /Andy ,
    
    	Sorry don't know anything about this CD ,infact I don't know
    anything about Hawkwind these days . Which brings me to my question
    ..  Have they changed at all in recent years ?
    
    	I used to listen often to Hawkwind ( +Gong ,Here&Now ,Hillage
    Etc etc ) around mid-to-late 70's .I did get to see them once at
    Glasgow Apollo . Still have strong affection for them but the last
    time I sat down to listen it just wasn't the same as yesteryear,
    maybe I just didn't get the right 'atmosphere' :-)

    re .0 and .1
    
    I came across an article on Hawkwind in a magazine a couple
    of weeks back. It covers the history of the band from '69(?)
    till the present. It gives a discography and some very,very
    interesting 'stories' about the line up!!!
    
    If any of you are interested give me your mailstop and I'll
    sent a photocopy.

Re: 117.1 By S_GOUDIE -=Was it that long ago ?=-

Stuart,

In answer to your question:-

>    ..  Have they changed at all in recent years ?

Well, I would say most definately "YES". And I think that the music they are
producing  these  day's is a lot different from thier earlier stuff. I won't
go  as far to say that it's actually better than the old stuff as I like all
of  it,  but  the  new album "The Xenon CodeX" is very good and just goes to
show what they can still do. Recently I haven't had much chance to listen to
it  much,  but  as you suggest the #atmosphere# (:-)) is very important for a 
good listen of this album.

I also  heard  that  Hawkwind played at Stonehenge this year, but I was in a
different part of site ;-)

Well that's  it  from  me, highest recomendation for all to go out "now" and
buy "the Xenon CodeX".
