HAWKWIND – Hawkwind – 3CD / 1 x Blu-Ray Deluxe Edition [FEB 27]

Description

3CD / 1 x Blu-Ray – Limited-Edition Box Set Of The Classic 1970 Debut Album By Hawkwind

The original album mix newly remastered from the original master tapes.

With new 5.1 surround sound & stereo mixes of the album from the original 8-track master tapes by Stephen W. Tayler.

Also includes an additional CD of rare live recordings from 1970 and a further seven bonus tracks drawn from a demo session, a rare single and a studio out-take.

Released in August 1970 on the Liberty label, the album was recorded in March and April of that year and established Hawkwind as one of the most exciting and original bands to emerge from the UK underground scene. Tracks such as Hurry On Sundown, Mirror of Illusion, Be Yourself, Seeing It As You Really Are and Paranoia set the scene for the legendary space rock style that HAWKWIND would explore to great acclaim and success in the 1970s and beyond.

This limited-edition deluxe boxed set comprises three CDs and a Blu-ray disc and features a brand new remaster of the original album, an additional CD of rare live recordings from 1970 from Dave Brocks archives, along with seven bonus tracks drawn from a 1969 demo session, both sides of the Hurry On Sundown single and a studio out-take, and new stereo and 5.1 surround sound mixes of the album by Stephen W Tayler.
