★★★
THE various incarnations of Hawkwind, plying their trade onstage since the 1960s, have never placed too great an emphasis on technical expertise as they’ve gone about their business.
But this hasn’t been too much of a hindrance to the band, as their unique sound has lost little of its appeal along the way.
