Hawklords
Formed in 1978, Hawklords were an offshoot from a recently disbanded Hawkwind and originally featured Hawkwind members Robert Calvert, Dave Brock and Simon King with the addition of Harvey Bainbridge, Martin Griffin and ex-Pilot keyboard player Steve Swindells. It is not known what prompted the temporary disbanding of Hawkwind and the use of the name Hawklords, though popular opinion is that this due to legal reasons and that Brock wished to embark on fresh musical ventures. The band remained active between 1978 and 1979, releasing one studio album 25 Years On.
