Hawkwind detail mammoth eleven-disc Space Ritual box set

Hawkwind

Space rock legends Hawkwind have released details of the contents of the mammoth eleven-disc Space Ritual box set, which will be released through Cherry Red/Atomhenge on September 29.

Yesterday we announced that the band would be celebrating the 50th anniversary of their classic 1973 live album with a headline show at London's Royal Albert Hall on the same day, September 29.

The new box set features a new remaster of the original album, along with new mixes of all three complete concerts recorded on the 1972 tour at Liverpool Stadium, Sunderland Locarno and Brixton Sundown, all mixed by Stephen W Tayler. 

The set also includes a 5.1 surround sound mix and a new stereo mix of the album, including the complete unedited versions of Brainstorm and Time We Left This World Today and the encore of You Shouldn’t Do That.

The set is completed with a 68 page illustrated book with new essay and a reproduction of the rare Space Ritual poster format tour programme.

There will also be a double clear vinyl version of the album which has been cut at Abbey Road studios utilising the original master tapes, as well as a 2 CD set featuring a stunning new mix of the album by Stephen W Tayler, from the original 16-track master tapes. This version also includes the complete unedited versions of Brainstorm and Time We Left This World Today and You Shouldn’t Do That along with the illustrated booklet.

You can see the complete tracklist below.
