5.0 out of 5 stars Oh for the wings of any bird...., 23 Aug 2005
By A Customer
"Spirit of the Age", written by Dave Brock and the late Bob Calvert, was originally recorded for Hawkwind's space-punk album "Quark, Strangeness and Charm" in 1977. The lyrics are from two Calvert poems from the early 70s. The fact that they remain relevant is tribute to Calvert's much-missed genius.

The story behind this version goes thus: Dave Brock was being interviewed by TV/Radio personality Matthew Wright, when Wright mentioned that he was a big Hawkwind fan. Brock challenged him to recite the lyrics to Hawkwind classic "Spirit of the Age"... and he did. This new version features vocals from Matthew Wright, and is a significant re-working of the original. Hawkwind have played this live throughout their recent tour, and it has been brilliant. Like the very best of Hawkwind, this is both timeless and timely; here is the spirit of the age.
