PLUS MANY LESSER-KNOWN BUT VITAL PLAYERS IN A MOVEMENT THAT WAS AS MUCH A WAY OF LIFE AND A POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY AS IT WAS A MUSIC SCENE.

40 TRACKS, EACH OF THEM EXPLORING THE OUTER LIMITS OF MIND, BODY AND SPIRIT.

SLEEVENOTES BY IAN ABRAHAMS, AUTHOR OF HAWKWIND: SONIC ASSASINS AND FESTIVALIZED – MUSIC, POLITICS AND ALTERNATIVE CULTURE.

Emeg out of the post-hippy fall-out of the late 1960s, Dave Brock and Hawkwind forged a new, psychedelic rock sound which, as the 1970s progressed, became the focal point of a festival scene that drew together countless alternative and counter-cultural artists, all of whom sought to take their listeners into previously unchartered realms of inner space.

Gathered together here are the p movers in this Brock-inspired scene which subsequently emerged and found focus towards the end of '70s, centred on free festivals, like-minded record labels, self-released cassettes and an anti-authoritarian lifestyle and political position.

From hard rocking psychedelic warriors to expental sonic architects, 'This Was Your Future' captures a and place in danger of being forgotten in the corporate playground of the present. A place where the guitar and the synthesiser proved mightier than the sword, offering an outlet for expression to countless artists for whom mainstream culture was a strange and alien landscape.
