HAWKWIND Legend NIK TURNER Returns With New Album And North American Tour
September 20, 2017, 6 years ago
The Return Of The Thunder Rider! Hawkwind co-founder Nik Turner teleports back to Earth with a brand new album, Life In Space, to be released on September 29th via Purple Pyramid Records.
The album features some of Nik’s most mature songs in years including the emotional opener “End Of The World” featuring a special guest performance by former Hawkwind/Pink Fairies member Paul Rudolph. Another Hawkwind alumnus, violinist Simon House, jumps on board for the space trippy “Why Are You?”. Turner also revisits one of the Hawkwind classics that he co-wrote, “Master Of The Universe”, giving the tune a modern twist. Life In Space will be available on both CD and colored vinyl (your choice of blue or white).
Tracklisting:
“End Of The World”
“Why Are You?”
“Back To Earth”
“Secrets Of The Galaxy”
“Universal Mind”
“Approaching The Unknown”
“As You Were”
“Master Of The Universe”
