A deluxe 2 CD digipack set that brings together 26 tracks of musical highlights from over 50 years of the legendary Hawkwind. Hawkwind is one of the most legendary British bands to emerge in the early 1970s. Formed in 1969 in London's Notting Hill district and always led by their visionary leader Dave Brock, the band bridged the genres of psychedelic rock, hard rock and art rock, creating a sound all their own. When Hawkwind signed to Liberty / United Artists in 1970, they shaped their own brand of so-called space rock in the early years with a string of classics including "X In Search Of Space", "Doremi Fasol Latido", "Space Ritual" and "Hall Of The Mountain Grill" and in ever-changing line-ups. Their 1972 hit single "Silver Machine" and their imaginative stage shows firmly entrenched them in the minds of rock audiences. 1975's "Warrior On The Edge Of Time" marked the end of an era for the band, and Hawkwind evolved into a more streamlined art-rock approach in the latter half of the '70s, with singer-lyricist Robert Calvert fronting the stage. On the four albums the band released during this period, they embraced the emerging New Wave of rock. In the 1980s and 1990s, Hawkwind was embraced by followers of heavy metal and later acid house (though the band remained unclassifiable). Throughout the decades, the band has always maintained its influence. Dust Of Time celebrates Hawkwind's 50+ year career and brings together 32 tracks of musical highlights from this incredible legacy. It is the first compilation to feature the most important tracks from every era of this remarkable band's history and pays homage to their legacy.
