i always loved robert calverts words, and his sense of humour, he was an original and he was australian and steve kilbey saw him once in hampstead and said he was amazing. imagine that!
i saw robert with hawkwind once on the marc bolan show, he was off his tree but calvert was the most amazing front man, he wore a first world war fighter pilot outfit with goggles and a stuffed hawk sat on his shoulders while he sang spirit of the age, wow, mind blowing stuff for an impressionable young captain mission. space rock!
