Description

HAWKWIND - HURRY ON SUNDOWN

  • CATALOGUE: LBF 15382
  • MATRIX: LBF15382 A-1 / B-1
  • MOTHERS/STAMPERS 1G / 1G

THIS RARE SINGLE WAS RELEASED ON 31ST JULY 1970, AS A SINGLE TRACK TAKEN FROM THE SOON TO BE RELEASED HAWKWIND DEBUT ALBUM ON AUGUST 14TH 1970

IT IS VERY VERY SCARCE AND ONLY THE SECOND COPY I HAVE EVER SEEN.

THIS IS THE RARER DEMO PRESSING, WITH THE LETTER A ON SIDE ONE, AND THE "DEMO RECORD NOT FOR SALE" OVER THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE A SIDE IS HURRY ON SUNDOWN, AND THE B SIDE ARGUABLY THE SECOND BEST TRACK ON THE ALBUM "MIRROR OF ILLUSION"

THE RECORD

VISUALLY THIS LOOKS A VERY VERY NICE EXAMPLE. IT HAS RETAINED MOST OF THE ORIGINAL SHEEN AND ONLY SHOWS VERY VERY WISPY AND LIGHT SURFACE LINES. NO SCRATCHES NOR SCUFFS.SIDE B HAS ONE NON SOUNDING LIGHT SCUFF LINE AS WELL

HURRY ON SUNDOWN

LOWERING THE STYLUS THE RUN IN IS NEAR SILENT, JUST A VERY SLIGHT BIT OF BACKGROUND WHICH LASTS FOR AROUND 7 SECONDS OR SO, AS SOON AS THE HARMONICA KICKS IN ALL YOU HEAR IS THE SUPERB STEREO SOUND OF HAWKWIND. ACTUALLY THE STEREO SPLIT IS PRETTY GOOD ON THIS SINGLE, AND I HAVE NO HESITATION IN STATING THAT THERE IS NO GROOVE WEAR, WHICH INDICATES THAT THE SINGLE HAS NOT SUFFERED ANY WEAR CAUSED BY A WORN OR TOO HEAVY STYLUS. THE SINGLE PLAYS MAGNIFICENTLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH.  AS THE SINGLE ENDS AND THERE IS JUST THE STRUMMING OF THE ACOUSTIC GUITAR THERE IS STILL NO BACKGROUND EXCEPT FOR TWO REALLY LIGHT POPS RIGHT AS THE SOUND ENDS

MIRROR OF ILLUSION

AGAIN THE RUN IN IS NEAR SILENT WITH JUST THAT VERY VERY LIGHT BACKGROUND. THIS IS A VERY BASSY TRACK AND ONCE AGAIN THERE IS NO GROOVE WEAR. IT WOULD HAVE SOUNDED AWFUL WITH THIS DEEP BASS HAD THERE BEEN ANY WEAR TO THE GROOVE. THE SOUND IS REALLY POWERFUL AND THROBS ALONG WITH THE BROCK ELECTRIC GUITAR PLAYING A NEAT SOLO, AND THE ELECTRONICS OF DIK MIK CREATING THE WEIRDNESS. THE TRACK IS ONLY AN EDIT OF THE FULL ALBUM TRACK AND FADES OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF IT JUST AS ITS GETTING GOING, BUT WHAT IS DID NOTICE IS THAT AS IT FADED OUT THERE IS STILL NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES.

THE LABELS

ORIGINAL BLUE LIBERTY LABELS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. THERE IS ALITTLE WEAR TO SIDE A IN THE SHAPE OF A LIGHT RING, WHICH MAY COME OFF WITH SOME CLEANER. THERE IS ALSO 7/8 PENNED IN AND I WOULDN'T MIND BETTENG THAT IT MEANS 7TH AUGUST WHEN THIS SINGLE WAS AQUIRED. SIDE 2 HAS  NO ADDITIONS WHATSOEVER

THE FACTORY SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, NO SPLITS , JUST ONE SMALL LABEL MARK TOP RIGHT

I AM PERFECTLY HAPPY TO GRADE THIS INCREDIBLE SINGLE AS EXCELLENT
