An historical document has been revealed. By Grabthar's hammer, ye shall be avenged!

bloody nice find thanks for posting , top stuff.

Bob was a genius and had a very spooky knack for being WAY ahead of his time. I think he was travelling around in some kind of mental TARDIS.

lovely to hear all this stuff, thanks for sharing this!!

This is so awesome. I LOVE Bob Calvert man, forever. Hawkwind LIVES FOREVER!

Very kindly recorded by Mark Patterson. This is the recording of Robert Calvert and Dave Brock’s “revolutionary chit-chat” on Tommy Vance’s Friday Rock Show, June 18, 1977.  In Mark's words "I recorded most of it, only missing Tommy’s endorsement of ‘Quark..’, and reading from the LP liner notes, right at the start.  It’s strange hearing it again after all this time.  As usual Robert is very perceptive and prescient; recognizing HW as a proto-punk band in the middle of the ‘77 ‘New Wave’ music explosion, and wary of uk talents being diluted in the “backwash of American culture.”  Interesting stuff." Many, many thanks to Mark for this.
