Cherry Red label managed by Esoteric Recordings and established in 2008 as the home of the recorded work of the [a69719] between 1976-1997 and of solo projects by various band members, reissuing remastered versions of previously out-of-print releases from that time, many including bonus material.

Formed in 1969, Hawkwind are a prolific and pioneering space-rock group from the UK. Known for their science fiction themed music and theatrical concerts, they gained fame for their exhibitions of pulsing electronics, dazzling light shows, and LSD consumption. Founder member Dave Brock has been the sole mainstay of the band since its inception, steering them through various musical genres including heavy metal, new wave, ambient and techno. Notable contributors have included Lemmy (of Motörhead), Ginger Baker (of Cream) and science fiction writer Michael Moorcock.
Hawkwind quickly made a name for themselves on the free festival circuit after forming in 1969. They would perform live without fee wherever possible.
Their 1971 album 'In Search of Space' solidified Hawkwind's reputation as pioneers of space-rock music. The album showcased their unique blend of science fiction themes with psychedelic rock sounds.

Box Sets

These recordings saw Hawkwind move into the 1990s with a trio of excellent albums recorded by slightly fluctuating line-ups. Alongside Hawkwind Captain Dave Brock and long-time member Harvey Bainbridge, ‘The Xenon Codex’ would be the last album of the 1980s to feature Huw Lloyd Langton on guitar, while bass guitarist Alan Davey would come more to the fore within the band. For ‘Space Bandits’, Richard Chadwick would join Hawkwind on drums, while former member Simon House would guest on the album, along with vocalist Bridget Wishart. ‘Palace Springs’ was Hawkwind’s final album for GWR Records and featured excellent new tracks such as ‘Treadmill’ and ‘Back in the Box’, alongside some live recordings of classic material. This official 3CD clamshell boxed set features each album in a replica card-sleeve wallet and includes an illustrated poster.
