Take a look: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawkwind#Discography

Every year from 1970 onwards is either an album release, or a live concert, or staggered album release, all with at maximum a 1-year hiatus.

In 2003 to 2004 something drastic of cosmic and celestial import must have happened.

    That would explain the one year absence in 1973. And also the general funk of the users these days, post christmas

          Well, AFAIK, that’s where Lemmy got the name from. Didn’t he write that one? My memory is about as good as my eyesight these days…

            Lemmy was dismissed from Hawkwind in May 1975 after being arrested in Canada for drug possession; he said “the band dismissed me for doing the wrong drugs”. Now on his own, Lemmy decided to form a new band called Motörhead, the name was inspired by the final song he had written for Hawkwind.
