Sadly I must disagree with you, Space Ritual surely gets 11. There is nothing quite like it.

I wonder if Stormzy is going to do a putdown of Boris Johnson? It's cool that he's headlining the Pyramid Stage tonight. Most of the acts televised by the BBC have been uninspiring. Celeste Dion is okay, but I don't own any of her records and wouldn't buy one.
Look forward to seeing Tame Impala, The Comet Is Coming and Sons of Kemet, because they'e excellent.

One of the best sets I’ve ever watched from Glastonbury. This one will be remembered for a long time.

Took my first acid trip just before Hawkwind played in Canvas City, a very large tent, at The Isle of Wight Festival in 1970. That was a weird night and set a pattern.
Then saw them whenever I could for a few years. Caught Hawkwind at The Greasy Truckers Party at The Roundhouse in 1972 and later that year at Brixton Sundown, where part of The Space Ritual Alive album was recorded. The Sundown didn't last long and became Brixton Academy.
Hawkwind provided a soundtrack for a number of never quite lost nights. The last time I saw them was at Glastonbury in 1990, the year that Happy Mondays headlined the Pyramid Stage and acid house and rave exploded at the Festival.

They just played a The Comet Is Coming track, sounded great, so much energy! I so need to catch that band live at some point, truly amazing stuff. Hopefully the set is on iPlayer somewhere, or will be at some point.
PS Jack, you attended arguably the two most legendary Hawkwind gigs! Greasy Truckers got you a killer Man set too! I know someone who was at the Liverpool Stadium gig, which the other bits of Space Ritual were assembled from.

What a superb musician that fella is.
I was amazed at how much power and energy a trio could generate.
I'll keep an eye out for Sons of Kemet, ta.

I'd love to see that The Comet is Coming set get a physical release, I'm still buzzing after it.

A star is born.
His music may not appeal to many here but his quality has to be admired.
Vossi pop get's me every time I hear it. Best pop rap record for many a year.

We've seen him play twice and he is astonishingly good. Haven't seen the set yet as we are out and about in Brighton, I will watch it when we get back.

I am happy for somone to openly state they dont like the music of an artist or a genre. But to me statements like this undermine cultural diversity, suppress creativity and IMO demonstrate racist leanings.

It was sheer luck, Tony. They were great gigs and Man were excellent. I also caught the other Greasy Truckers Party at Dingwalls. Henry Cow, Gong and Camel performed at that.

Listen & enjoy.
That takes me back - I remember seeing Camel at the Guildford Civic Hall in the mid 70's.
I couldn't get over how brilliant Andy Latimer was.
