Recorded Live at Liverpool Stadium & Brixton Sundown .

The double live album Space Ritual, which celebrates its 40th anniversary this year, was recorded at Liverpool Stadium and the Brixton Sundown in December 1972. Lasting a shade under two hours with bonus tracks, Space Ritual is relentless in its sci-fi metaphor and unflinching in its execution. As one thrilling riff gives way to another – with disembodied voices echoing from the stage – the primitive music induces trance-like pleasure while electronic whooshes create the feeling of unstoppable flight. Brock, Lemmy and King, a rhythm section with not an ounce of virtuosity between them, pilot the vessel like crazed joyriders. It sometimes sounds like Krautrock made by Brits. (Hawkwind, indeed, had links to Neu! and Amon Düül II.) There’s none of that quintessentially English approach to space travel that we find in The Moody Blues or the 1968–9 Floyd. Space Ritual informs us that we’re flying at bewildering speed with no realistic chance of returning home, tells us not to panic, tells us we’re going to die, and takes us on a juddering journey into the psychedelic unknown. As a Hawkwind song title would put it in 1977, we like to be frightened. Read more at http://www.uncut.co.uk/hawkwind-space-ritual-review#QuoDFZmTXt1Zjroo.99
