Played with such a delightful touch, this is guitar playing of the highest quality and beautifully recorded.

I think this is his best album, a selection of numbers from his previous three. The re-recording and better production on here is a marked improvement giving a fuller, richer sound. Guests include Jon Lord on organ.

A cross between Carly Simon and James Taylor....unsurprisingly.

Hawkwind - anthology 1967-1982 ('93) bonus tracks  2 c.d. 

 

Quite a nice selection of material, not as nice as the 1992 3 disc anthology on Emergency Broadcast label.

Wild Ones

"Keep It Safe"    (2014)

 

I agree with PatK, a very enjoyable album

Why? Because it's such a great album, such a great voice and such a great hat.

Took a bit of a punt with this three album set from Music on Vinyl. It say on the cover digital remasters (p) 1990 so no disguising the source material. However, its not bad SQ wise the music is absolutely brilliant. Therefore no recommendation from me other than its nice to have if you would like the complete Mickie Most animals productions.

This one remastered in 2004 and sounding all the better for it.
