Hawkwind

In April 1984, during the performance captured in the live recording "PSI Power" at the Gaumont Theatre in Ipswich, Hawkwind was experiencing a dynamic phase in their career. They had recently released the album "Church of Hawkwind" in 1982, which was emblematic of their evolving sound and experimentation. This period was marked by significant lineup changes and a creative resurgence, with Nik Turner providing an eccentric presence as the frontman, reflecting the band's unique blend of space rock and performance art. The live show showcased their continuing influence in the genre, blending intricate musical compositions with theatrical visuals. Notably, "PSI Power" is one of their signature tracks from the album "Quark, Strangeness and Charm," further illustrating their longstanding commitment to exploring science fiction themes in their music.
