What you are bidding on is a beautiful copy of HAWKWIND: IN SEARCH OF SPACE. This is a classic space rock record, on UNITED ARTISTS RECORDS, UK pressing. It's like shopping in a time warp! Where are you gonna find this? No bar code, probably the rarest of all Hawkwind releases, this is the very first edition and comes with a flight log. We've never had one this nice before, the record looks unplayed and the sleeve near perfect. It won't get any better unless it's sealed and I don't think any of the imports ever were. Scarce!
UK 1st press (A1U/B1U)
This release has an innovative 8-page, 3-fold die-cut heavy card sleeve. Opened out, it forms a 'T' shape. This shape is printed black & white on inside and full-color on reverse.
When the lower page is folded up (to contain the liner) the sleeve then takes the form of a 6-page triptych - with the die-cut tab & slot linking together at the center. When locked 'closed' the liner/vinyl can still be inserted via the top opening.
The back cover has a blurred shot of Stacia dancing on-stage, with text that encapsulates the essence of the work:
"Technicians of Space Ship Earth
This is Your Captain Speaking
Your Captain is Dead"
"Printed and made by the E. J. Day Group, London and Bedford".
[The inside spread photos include members of The Pink Fairies].
The package also contains an A4, 24-page 'Log Book', packed with the minutiae of the band's 'flight' through space & time. This 'Log' is printed black on white 'newspaper-quality' paper.
Produced at Olympic Studios, Barnes. Track B2 first recorded at Air Studios.

About the used lps. We visually grade these, we don't have the time to play all we sell, we sell hundreds a week. In most cases we grade NM lps as VG+ to be safe. If I put "It looks unplayed" then it is probably unplayed....If I put NM, someone will find a piece of dust and complain....
Be sure to read the description carefully, sometimes we will sell reissues that are sealed. We will try our best to denote, the year of release and label and number. You are welcome to email any questions prior to bidding. We cannot be held responsible if you do not read and fully understand the descriptive notes. We will put in the description if it is a first pressing. If not it will be an early pressing. Thanks.
