DESCRIPTION:

This is an original (sealed with hype sticker) 1973 2-LP gatefold vinyl LP record of Hawkwind Space Ritual. Hawkwind was the band in which Lemmy (Motorhead) played bass. The record is still sealed, though there are corner tears in the shrinkwrap. It is also hole punched, which was done by the record store. Please see photos for exact condition. I would be happy to send more photos and answer any questions you may have.

The Space Ritual was recorded live at Liverpool Stadium 12/22/1972 and Brixton Sundown, London 12/31/1972.

From Discogs:

“Formed in 1969, Hawkwind are a prolific and pioneering space-rock group from the UK. Within weeks of their formation, the band had made a name for themselves on the free festival circuit and would perform live without fee wherever they were able. By the time of their 1971 album 'X In Search Of Space', Hawkwind were infamous for their science fiction themed music and theatrical concerts, the latter renowned as exhibitions of pulsing electronics, dazzling light shows, LSD consumption and (from 1971-75) a nude dancer in the form of Stacia Blake .

Despite a near-constant revolving door of members, Founder member Dave Brock has been the sole mainstay and the core of the band since its inception and has steered the band from its psychedelic rock roots into flirtations with heavy metal, new wave, ambient and techno. Notable contributors have included "accidental" bassist Lemmy (who would go on to greater fame with MOTÖRHEAD), Cream's Ginger Baker and science fiction writer Michael Moorcock.”
