Review:

If they are brief, I usually read the acknowledgements at the front of a book. This one was to some dudes, and the members of Hawkwind, and a chap named Lemmy.

Yes.

That.

Lemmy!

Turns out before forming Motörhead Lemmy was in a psychedelic band called Hawkwind. With Michael Moorcock! He was a musician as well as an author. Who knew??

The book itself was visionary, very unique but really a bit of a slot. About 2/3 of the way through something started to happen. And it was hackneyed at that. But I persevered and got through it.

This book made me want to: Read Lemmy’s biography. Yes it exists and it’s called “White Line Fever.”
