As stated. I picked up Space Ritual and Warrior on the Edge of Time. Haven't yet heard the former; currently listening to the latter, and think I could be missing something – relevant context or backstory, maybe – that's central to really "getting" it.
I'm coming at this from a position of complete ignorance, other than the constant urging from a friend long ago that I "really needed to get into it". (He was a Hawkwind purist at the time, who subsequently became a Dead Can Dance purist. He was also an Olympic-caliber fencer, if that helps explain anything.)
I'm not saying I don't like it, but I get the feeling it's trying to take me somewhere that I can't quite visualize. I've read a few threads here, but mostly they seem like appreciation posts from those already in the know.
(While you're at it, if you could explain Ozric Tentacles, that would be great. I have Afterswish and find it impenetrable.)
