Thanks to Klemen and It's Psychedelic Baby for this really thoughtful interview with Marion Lloyd-Langton on her 'A Wandering Minstrel' memoir of her life with Hawkwind legend Huw Lloyd-Langton ... it was a joy to work on the book with Marion. www.psychedelicbabymag.com/2025/10/huw-...

There's a new issue of Prog magazine out, and guess what? They kindly asked me to write about Hawkwind again 😊, a relatively short but hopefully interesting piece about Hall Of The Mountain Grill ahead of the upcoming box, inc some words from remix king Stephen W Tayler... 1/2

My reviews of In Your Area and SpaceBrock weren't THAT bad, surely?

I haven’t seen him for ages, but I’m still impressed for his total dedication to Hawkwind. Love it. #believeinfilm #analogphotography

HAWKWIND doing Hawkwind things in Worthing last night. Brilliant set. First time I've heard the acoustic/spoken "Days of the Underground" - beautiful. Captain on great form 🚀🚀🚀

The first gig of the Space Rock Invasion tour happened today in 2011. B.B. King Blues Club & Grill, New York NY. Hawkwind's Huw Lloyd-Langton acoustic support for Nektar and Brainticket; Huw & Marion's last great adventure, as she relates in A Wandering Minstrel.

"There are too many kings in the land..." The first trilogy I ever read. These have come with me ever since. Fifty years now.

Though it has its sad moments, and its tragic ones as well, when I was helping Marion Lloyd-Langton with her memoir of the great Hawkwind guitarist Huw Lloyd-Langton what quickly became clear was that the book, 'A Wandering Minstrel' was to be a celebration.

RIP the legendary Biddy Baxter, formidable and pioneering Editor of Blue Peter during its heyday...😥

One for my Hawkwind fandom friends who've been enjoying watching Cornish band Hanterhir supporting at some recent gigs... a few bits of interview and review that I did back in 2018/19... fills in the backstory a bit! ianabrahams.substack.com/p/hanterhir-...

"See you on the other side" - godspeed to Jim Lovell: www.nasa.gov/news-release...

So enjoyed reading Marion L-L's account of Hawkwind Huw's - and her - last great adventure together, travelling across America with Nektar and Brainticket... and discovering how Huw enjoyed a last meet-up with his old friend, Lemmy. 'A Wandering Minstrel' on Amazon now.

'A Wandering Minstrel', Marion LL's memoir of Hawkwind's Huw Lloyd-Langton is now on Goodreads so if you're there and enjoyed it please give the book a rating - and if you plan to read, please add.

Another lovely review for Marion Lloyd-Langton's memoir of her life with Hawkwind ClassicRock LeadGuitarist legend Huw! Thanks Ron!

Looking forward to giving this one a read 🚀 @ianabrahams.bsky.social

So thrilled with the first Amazon review for Marion Lloyd Langton's memoir of Hawkwind legend Huw!

Were any of you at the 'gig of the year' in Scarborough? I'm guessing this was 1988 as it seems to refer also to the aborted Hawkwind USA tour around that time? Did you have a liaison with a Joli Joka Kissagram? (Don't write in if so...)!

@ianabrahams.bsky.social , look what’s arrived in Venice!

Thrilled with the amount of love for Hawkwind legend Huw Lloyd-Langton on socials following the memoir his wife and soulmate Marion has written (which I've been privileged to work on with her) arriving this weekend. www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0FJS4F5NB

Oz Hardwick's iconic photo of Huw Lloyd-Langton from Margate 1986 with Hawkwind; Oz has kindly allowed this photo for promotional use with Marion's memoir of life with Huw, 'A Wandering Minstrel', as he did when I wrote Huw's obituary for The Independent back in 2012.

And now live on UK and European Amazon sites amzn.eu/d/7vhHcwB

US and Canadian friends I have news! Marion's memoir of #Hawkwind legend Huw Lloyd-Langton is now available to order in North America. UK Links soon! A Wandering Minstrel: My Memoir of Huw Lloyd-Langton a.co/d/4lWG8M6

One of the great things about helping Marion LL with her memoir of life with Huw Lloyd-Langton, has been finding out a bit more about the many bands he was associated with over the years that have become a bit mythical in his legend... such as Amon Din.

For all the (several, honest!) people who've been asking what I've been working on over the last six months or so, here's the news... I've been helping Marion Lloyd-Langton with her memoir of the great Hawkwind and classic rock guitarist, the much-missed Huw. A Wandering Minstrel. Links to follow!

Holiday reading. The Lost Folk. Lally Macbeth.

Before and after

Absolutely joyous Waterboys @mickpuck.bsky.social Fisherman's Blues at Hall for Cornwall tonight. Stage full of musicians enjoying the moment in our wonderful theatre. New album material sounded great as the middle of the set focus. Brilliant night.

Seeing a little post tour flurry of sales for my 2017 edition of Hawkwind: Sonic Assassins... amzn.eu/d/9bOhfjJ

spread the word - Trelawny’s Cornwall is out in paperback tomorrow. Order now from your local bookshop. @wnbooks.bsky.social

Please could you help me to spread the word about my swashbuckling adventure story with a pirate protagonist, sapphic romance, with a dash of werewolves and vampires? My latest novel THE VENGEANCE is available in all formats geni.us/thevengeance Perfect for escaping the horrors of our time.

Hawkwind at the Barbican. Epic. Nice mention of Simon House by Dave before Golden Void as well. 🚀🚀🚀 #Hawkwind #BarbicanCentre

Quite possibly my favouritist original fiction book wot I haz wroted in many years. Probably more of “me” in this than I’d like to admit. Huge thanks to @scifibulletin.bsky.social for lovely editing and @roberthammond.bsky.social for this perfect cover

And awesome to see Ian and Phillip.. Hawkwind gigs are great meeting-up occasions 🚀🙂✌️ @Abrahams_Ian @PGJonesVenice

One of the brightest moments of Hawkbinge was recording the Quark episode, and in particular Matt's description of the "absolutely glorious" instrumental section in Damnation Alley. Listened to the track and the chat again this morning. RIP Simon House. 🚀🚀🚀 #Hawkwind

Hailing some Ale! @andylaneauthor.bsky.social don't suppose you're in that there London today?

RIP Simon House. Not just Hawkwind but Bowie, High Tide, played on the soundtrack to Polanski's film of Macbeth with Third Ear Band... huge legacy.

Sad news for Hawkwind fans - Simon House, whose amazing keyboard and violin playing was a defining part of the band's post-Space Ritual sound, has died. Let's also remember his first band, the terrific High Tide, and his time in David Bowie's live band (pic - Yuji Kaida)

Hawkwind in Portsmouth last night.

Fede Brignone waving the F1 chequered flag... Good to see...

Doctor Who doing what Doctor Who... and science fiction generally... does well. Looking at modern issues and creating parables from them.
