Well that was an experience! Near enough to 2 hours of almost unrelenting noisy psychedelic space rock, synthesizer noodling, and poetry readings.
It's a live album, but in a way it only gives you only a taste of how mind-blowing their live show must have been (you're missing the art, the lights, the naked trancey dancer)
The rhythm section are frenetic and fantastic. As most people will know, the album features Lemmy Kilmister before he formed Motörhead. You'd think that with his acrimonious split and the creation of Motörhead just on the horizon that Lemmy might seem at odds with, or out of place in the music but he plays with and against it nicely.
This is a sprawling mess of sound that manages to be engaging and cohesive.
