SPIRITS BURNING & BRIDGET WISHART – Make Believe It Real

& BRIDGET WISHART -
Make Believe It Real
A new bout of cosmic unconsciousness from the spaceball dancefloor.
Since 1996, when American multi-instrumentalist Don Falcone resurrected his old band, this loose collective of kindred minds has been having a romance with the Old World purveyors of psychedelia. Usually with a HAWKWIND member on board of such an interstellar ship, Falcone’s most productive collaboration is one with Bridget Wishart, the voice of "Space Bandits", and “Make Believe It Real” forms the third instalment of their journey into the pounding heart of the Universe. Its beat ranges from disco groove to serious rocking so stardust pieces come in various forms and sizes here.
The most touching one is the delicately hypnotic “Journey Past The Stars” where Wishart’s voice is sprinkled with the legendary Twink’s tambourine, yet there’s a gentle strain in opener “Make Believe (It Acoustic)” as well that reimagines the title track – issued before on a HAWKLORDS compilation, with Simon House’s violin, to take a pride of place on this package’s second disc alongside other relevant material, remixes and all – featuring another veteran, GONG’s Daevid Allen.

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
