I saw the Enid. It was a four hour gig IIRC, since they played a regular set, then went on to play the whole of their new triple album.
Meanwhile, I nominate Hawkwind. An interesting bunch of folks, but musically....

Not sure they were ever cool though.QuoteMeanwhile, I nominate Hawkwind. An interesting bunch of folks, but musically....I disagree on this one. Hawkwind were really good, fantastic driving beat and influential on other bands. Great live as well. Stonehenge dawn 1984 sticks in my memory.I do admit there records went downhill starting with Choose Your Masques (1982) and I really haven't bothered with anything they have done at all since about 1985. I still listen to the CDs from the 70s and early 80s though, especially the Bob Calvert stuff.
No-one's mentioned Tom Waits yet - but then he gets regular play in the Windy house
Bjork
