Robert Calvert - Captain Lockheed..(w. Lemmy UK 1974 @224Vbr)

Robert Calvert - Captain Lockheed And The Starfighters An album with Robert Calvert (vocalist/poet in Uk spacerock legends Hawkwind), Lemmy Kilmister (of Hawkwind & Motorhead fame), Brian Eno on synthesizers(yepp, thats THE Brian Eno), Arthur Brown (from the crazy world of A.B.) - what kind of album would that make? The worlds first heavy metal space rock concept album, thats what ! and a seriously good album too, songs with a "silvermachine-era Hawkwind"/Lemmy kinda feel to it, mixed with seriously funny Monty Pythonesque vignettes between the killer songs. The songs/story revolves around true story of Germany's purchase of the Lockheed Starfighter jet..but I wont give away the whole story here :D imho: tHis is the best album Hawkwind never made. 224Vbr Tracklist: 1.-Franz Joseph Strauss, Defense Minister, Reviews The Luftwaffe In 1958: Finding It Somewhat Lacking In Image Potential 1:50 2.-The Aerospaceage Inferno 4:05 3.-Aircraft Salesman (A Door In The Foot) 2:00 4.-The Widow Maker 2:40 5.-Two Test Pilots Discuss The Starfighter's Performance 0:45 6.-The Right Stuff 4:20 7.-Board Meeting (Seen Through A Control Lense) 1:00 8.-The Song Of The Gremlins (Part One) 3:15 9.-Ground Crew (Last Minute Reassembly Before Take Off) 2:50 10.-Hero With A Wing 3:40 11.-Ground Control To Pilot 0:45 12.-Ejection 3:30 13.-Interview / The Widow's Song 3:45 14.-I Resign 0:40 15.-The Song Of The Gremlins (Part Two) 3:15 16.-Bier Garten 0:35 17.-Catch A Falling Starfighter 2:50 Enjoy !
