Hawkwind - PXR5 (1979) [UK 1st Press, 1989]

PXR5 is the ninth studio album by Hawkwind, released in 1979. It reached No. 59 on the UK album charts. Hawkwind's end-of-the-'70s incarnation heard on PXR5 was the last to feature vocalist/poet Bob Calvert alongside fellow veterans Simon House, Simon King, and, of course, Dave Brock. It is also the last in the sequence of brittle, pop-inflected records the band launched with Astounding Sounds, Amazing Music.
