"This collection of the "Best of Hawkwind" is the finest around. For the long-time follower of the band and for the "newbie", this collection is a must. It clearly showcases the band's musical journey, one which varied with every album/CD produced by Hawkwind. This is what makes Hawkwind unique. You never know what to expect from album to album, but it is almost always worth the expectation. This release is well produced, sonically clear, and the box-set is a clear plus. Do you like Pink Floyd? Then you'll like Hawkwind. Hawkwind currently has over 30 albums cut and 4 or 5 music videos as well. An Independent band that follows it's own path, refusing to be defined or molded to the record companies' idea of a "hit band". (How many bands do you know have lasted for 30 years?) Get This Collection! You won't regret it."

"A super-nice compilation of Hawkwind's repertoire,1969-1994.Good luck at actually finding a copy of this box set,UNLESS you're willing to put out some major $$.Although I didn't get to see it,I've heard this 4-disc offering came with an awfully nicely assembled book.No trouble believing that,as with most Hawkwind reissues/compilations that came out on the Griffin label were no less than top rate anyway.Most of the great tunes you remember are here,like "Hurry On Sundown",a live version of "Silver Machine","Golden Void",the adventurous "Magnu" and simply too many more to name at the moment.Most highly recommended."

"I have never heard this, but judging by the track list, this is easily five stars. This is out of print, and, as I write this, is not available anywhere on Amazon. Get "Epoch Eclipse" 3cd anthology as a substitute. That one I own, and have played to no end!"
