Yeah, it's 16 minutes long, but that may very well be too short. ![]() This is all capped with some great breathless vocal 'harmonies' making the song's title a mantra. The album opens with the punk rock stomp of "You Shouldn't Do That." It's an absolutely essential track with plenty of wah-wah acid guitar, wild saxophone madness, and some electronic tones to penetrate into the deepest recesses of your brain. The band has no problem entering a full on psychedelic heavy metal groove, and there are plenty of wild early synth sounds to keep my attention. I dig the slightly more focused, and better recorded intergalactic musings found here. The live "Space Ritual" typically gets the love, but I find the sound on that one a little muddy, and Lemmy's bass seems to be out of tune for most of the album (not that this detracts from the awesomeness of Lemmy). ![]() ![]() I do know that I dig this album quite well. Hawkwind has a giant, intimidating discography, and I have to admit that I haven't delved too deeply into it (well, maybe now I have).
