Notes:

In late 1973 Hawkwind undertook a their first tour of the U.S. taking in six venues. This was the first time on which a British group, appearing for the very first time in America, had topped its own tour. The Detroit show was the fourth date on the tour and the proceedings were captured on a cheap Memorex tape by an enterprising member of the audience. For many years the recording was forgotten about until a transfer was finally made to another cassette. The master tape is no longer in existence. Some copies of that first generation tape were made and have been in circulation for some time but it was not until 2002 that the first generation tape was properly transferred to digital form and transferred to CDR. Here is the band at it's best from start to finish and the recording boasts a better than the average sound quality for a Hawkwind audience recording of this era.
