Hawkwind - Masters of the Universe free for downloading

This song was played at Sound, Berlin in memory of LEMMY, gone but not forgotten

That bass section is honkin'. For some reason, the part where the pyschedelic breakdown ends and it's just the bass, I get teary eyed. It just sounds so triumphant.

In 1972 I took my new and very beautiful 16 year old girlfriend to a Hawkwind gig in Brighton. She turned up in a perfect clean light blue dress, looking like a blonde angel. The gig was full of long haired tripping scruffy hippies, choking joss stick and hash smoke. There was a naked woman throwing herself around on stage and this earsplitting noise, well you couldnt call it music. She made me leave after 15 minutes and take her home. Never saw her again but I have seen Hawkwind many times since.

Can still remember the night at a mates place when we all went out looking for gold top mushrooms on a full moon,. We found them and then went back to their place and listened to Hawkwind. It was one of those nights that became part of who you are.

Prog/space rock at it's absolute best, I've been listening to Hawkwind for over 20 years, never tire of them:)

this track never gets old, it is insanely wonderful

Was listening to a public radio station in Houston TX one day in the early 70s. I am as 14 or 15. On that they played this and a Genesis song called Attack of the Giant Hogweed. Had never heard of either band before. Bought both albums, which I still have. What a great day.

They always sounded as if they lived next door and never got a record deal. This is what imagination and fun in playing together is all about.

TECHNICIANS OF SPACESHIP EARTH. THIS IS YOUR CAPTAIN SPEAKING. YOUR CAPTAIN IS DEAD.

This track reminds me of Black Sabbath. I mean, in theory they're very different bands, but there's something about the recording process, riffs and lyrics on this song which has the same feel as Sabbath.

Sweet to see everyone speaking so well of Lemmy and thanking him, despite the fact he wasn't on this album! A great loss nevertheless.

After listening to Hawkwind for 30 plus years, I have come to the conclusion that they are on drugs.

I am 67 and have followed this band since their beginning. They don't get NEAR the credit they deserve for their work. It's a shame really....

I wasn't born in the 70s but man it feels like I was reborn in an age where everything was so simple and the music was something you can call art.

MEMORIZE THESE LYRICS - THEY MIGHT SAVE YOUR LIFE ONE DAY! I am the centre of this universe The wind of time is blowing through me And it's all moving relative to me It's all a figment of my mind In a world that I've designed I'm charged with cosmic energy Has the world gone mad or is it me? I'm the creator of this universe And all that is was ment to be So that we might learn to see The foolishness that lives in us And stupidity that we must suss How to banish from our minds If you call this living I must be blind

My experience brought me here. Also, just found this music. Life changing.

A classic! The riff is like "whole lotta..." from Led Zep. Perfect! We listenend to them with LSD, and you never forget...

I am the centre of this universe The wind of time is blowing through me And it's all moving relative to me It's all a figment of my mind In a world that I've designed I'm charged with cosmic energy Has the world gone mad or is it me? I am the creator of this universe And all that it was meant to be So that we might learn to see The foolishness that lives in us And stupidity that we must suss How to banish from our minds And if you call this living I must be blind

I am 75 years old. in my youth I used to listen to this shit. Still sounds crazy good to me because it is still Rock and Roll.
