@Ken- Diamond in the back could be on a Lincoln or Cadillac, the phrase refers to the shape of the rear windows which were reduced in size and reshaped-(as described in the song- like a diamond) by a very thick padded vinyl roof covering. The "TV antas in the back" were the antennae mounted for an actual TV. I've never been quite sure what the gangster lean is, though.

Early Hawkwind turned into Motorhead.

Been a HW fan all me life, & favorite albums are by far the first batch. Everything up to '75/warrior. The '80s were a dodgy time for many.

Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:40am Ken:

I just meant I had never heard the early Hawkwind which is way better than Motorhead or later Hawkwind,

Look what I found the other day in the WFMU YT channel!

WFMU-TV: The Ken Freedman show (April 1992)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJus2kP8N1A

Man, I thought there were no archived shows before 1996. Are there any more that haven't been digitalised yet, Ken ?

Well, that's a switch. I actually haven't investigated too much Hawkwind after 1975/the United Artists' years. I think I unconsciously put the brakes on right around "Warrior at the Edge of Time." Any good comps for '80s material?

_Prove_ that you don't like Satan: play "Chinchilla" by Cub (if you hate it, remember that it's short).

Otherwise, we can only assume that you don't 'like' Satan, but rather that you _love_ him.
