HAWKWIND In Search of Space UA 1971 LP with fold out sleeve and 'Hawklog' booklet
Condition on visual inspection is Vinyl: EX - Booklet: VG - Sleeve: VG+ Some general shelf wear, minor marks and nibbles to the edges and corners of the sleeves. Booklet has one small tear of about 3mm and a little creasing to the back page but is otherwise in great condition for something that is printed on thin paper and is 51 years old.
The 2nd album by Hawkwind, released in the UK 8th October 1971 is a timeless and essential 1971 masterpiece of space rock. Recording began briefly at Air Studios [Master Of The Universe], then moved to Olympic Studios. The innovative sleeve design was by Barney Bubbles [Colin Fulcher]. An 8-page fly-out (unlaminated card) printed full-color on the front and black & white half-tone on reverse. When opened out, the die-cut sleeve forms a bird shape with outstretched wings - rather like a hawk. When folded, the die-cuts interlock at the front centre, the shapes and print forming an 'X', per the initial character of the title. The folded form thus creates an open-top wallet for the disc. The disc is accompanied by a 24-page 'Hawkwind Log Book' (printed black & white) detailing the band's'flight' through space & time. This was not present in subsequent issues.
