“Hawkwind discography”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

The discography of the British space rock group Hawkwind spans from their formation in 1969 through to the present day, with consistent output of live and studio albums, EPs and singles. The group have used aliases to release some albums in an attempt to either redefine themselves, as with the 1978 album 25 Years On released under the name Hawklords, or simply to distinguish the piece of work from their usual output, as with White Zone released under the name Psychedelic Warriors.

From 1970 through to 1975, the group were contracted to Liberty/UA producing their most commercially successful and critically acclaimed work, five studio albums, the UK top 9 live album Space Ritual and five singles, including the UK top 3 single "Silver Machine". This catalogue is now owned by EMI and is in print.^[1]

The mid-late 1970s saw them produce four studio albums under contract to Charisma. In the early 1980s, they produced a studio album and live album under contract to Bronze in 1980, then three studio albums for Rockfield Studios owner Kingsley Ward's Active/RCA. Since then, the band have recorded for numerous independent labels, including Flicknife, their former manager Douglas Smith's label GWR, Essential (through Castle Communications), and from 1994-97 their own label EBS administered by Douglas Smith.

The catalogue from this 1976-97 period has passed through various record companies and seen numerous releases, in North America through Griffin, and some counterfeit copies on the German label Rock Fever. It has currently been secured by Cherry Red in the UK for their Atomhenge imprint, and is undergoing a re-issue programme with the inclusion of previously unreleased bonus tracks.^[2]

Between 1999 and 2007, the band has released both new and archive material through Voiceprint, the catalogue still being in print.^[3]

At the beginning of 1980, Dave Brock started collating material from his archives and issuing cassette tape albums under the imprint Weird Records. He would subsequently license these recordings to various independent record companies, such as Flicknife, former bass player Dave Anderson's American Phonograph, the then band manager Jim White's Samurai and later Voiceprint. This material has been subject to many retitling, repackaging and re-issuing through different labels, leading to multitudes of cheap titles of which the band has no control. To be fair, the band probably doesn't care!

Albums

This section contains official (i.e. contractual and contemporaneous) albums that Hawkwind have recorded live or in the studio for release. It has long been a practice of theirs to incorporate live recordings (albeit with studio overdubs) of previously unreleased tracks on studio albums (for example Hall of the Mountain Grill), and studio recordings of previously unreleased tracks on live albums (for example Palace Springs). Compilation albums listed are those that have been compiled by record labels that had Hawkwind under contract to produce a series of albums.
