Yeah, I like their version of the Beatles "Cry Baby Cry" much more because it sounds like a fresh interpretation. This is kind of awkward, because it sounds like a very different band trying to recreate the Hawkwind track note for note and instrument for instrument.

No. I very rarely use it either, I just found the link through the Trensmat records website.

If anyone's interested enough, they're releasing three 7"s of bands covering Hawkwind. From memory, there's also Kinski, AMT, Mudhoney, White Hills and, erm, someone else. They're all on last in full.

I'd rather listen to Hawkwind play Hawkwind more than any other band playing Hawkwind simply because as good as the band covering them is (and bardo pond has been great in the past, amanita) they are never gonna rock like Hawkwind. Ever.

Again, it's all about interpretation. A space rock band covering Hawkwind in absolute reverence will always have the results you mention. However, if the Dead C were to cover Hawkwind, I think that would sound completely awesome.
