Description
Recorded Live at Brixton Sundown on December 30th 1972, this the last show on the "Space Ritual" UK tour which consisted of 28 totally sold out shows. NASA was still firing men at the moon when space guerrillas Hawkwind conceived the Space Ritual, a two hour touring extravaganza that took its cue from Science fiction, but travelled quickly to a universe unlike any other. From the opening static of "Space" to the alien foreboding of "Welcome To The Future" through poems, riffs and electronic mayhem, the Space Ritual was alternately terrifying, invigorating and utterly believable. Indeed, as vocalist Robert Calvert warned as the journey took another sudden twist, "this is reality...however grim".
