Ep 23: Stories From Time And Space, Back To The Nexus
The Hawkbinge Release Day Reaction Pod crew assembles to give the hottest of red-hot hot-takes on the latest from the Hawks, "Stories From Time And Space", which dropped today! A journey in time for us for sure, from 1992 where Hawkbinge was last seen - it's good to give the DeLorean another run out.
Please note: Andy, Matt and Joe have managed to give the album a couple of listens, jumped on a Zoom call and then handed over to Matt to madly edit this together so we can drop it on the day, so it may sound a little rougher than usual. Also remember that this is a pretty instant reaction, not a deep-dive, and it will be very interesting to see how we come back to this when we reach the last few episodes of the canon studio album deep-dive episodes.

Ep 22: Electric Tepee
The Hawkbinge voyage through the 90's continues with the epic "Electric Tepee". An album almost as long as the podcast that covers it, this one features Hawkwind's biggest step into techno and electronics yet. It's a marathon, not a sprint...
As ever, we delve into the big releases of 1992 featuring the big chart hits of the year so we can see what musical environment Electric Tepee was launched into, check out the state the band at the time, and check out the album artwork. Matt will also select his picks for the Hawkbinge Master Playlist on Spotify, and add our turntable picks to what will end up being Vol 6 of the Hawkbinge Sessions Playlist, the first 5 of which you can find here:

New year, new season, new episode! Hawkbinge is back for season 3 covering the 1990's, kicking off with Space Bandits!
Yet another fresh start for Hawkwind with interesting arrivals and departures from the band, so no change there. As ever, we get into the music of the day to set the scene for Space Bandits, going through some of the biggest albums and hit singles of the year, look at the state of the band and check out the album cover artwork as well as get Matt's take on the music.

Ep 20: The Master Playlist So Far... 80's
A Hawkbinge bonus...
Setting the seal on season 2, Matt & Andy look back on Matt's selections from the 80's albums that made the Hawkbinge Master Playlist on Spotify. What leapt out at him, what was he thinking? Did he pick the same tracks you would have done?
Next stop, the 90's...

Ep 19: End of Season Special - The 80's
HAWKWIND: THE THATCHER YEARS
Hawkbinge is back from the dark recesses of our completely unplanned hiatus! And we're casting an eye over 80's Hawkwind to round off season 2 and get our PDA's, pogs and pagers at the ready for season 3 and the 1990's...
However, We couldn't face this daunting task on our own, and so we enlisted the help of an amazingly special guest to talk 80's Hawkwind with us: a man who was there, lived it, breathed it, and documented most of it with his camera - yes, it's all-round renaissance man Oz Hardwick himself - renowned Hawkwind photographer, published poet, Professor of Creative Writing at Leeds Trinity, musician (with an album of space rock out now, no less) and writer. And we get into all of that, because it's fascinating, and then blaze a trail randomly through Hawkwind's 80's releases before choosing some of our favourite orphan tracks that never made it onto those albums, but maybe should have...

Customer Reviews
A review 12 months after my first review!
Greetings from Planet Allan! We’ll, it’s another year into both of our journeys. I appreciate your insights even more. I too find I listen to the subject album excessively before the podcast and again after to consider Andy and Matt’s points of view. Not to mention replaying earlier podcasts. Of yes , I LOVE the LONGER podcasts. I’m so happy you’re not cutting corners to fit into a generic 45 minute box. If you discussed an album for 3 hours I’d still listen! Anyways, thanks again for a wonderful podcast Andy and Matt.
T minus Hawkwind
