PRESS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 13th FEBRUARY 2013
HAWKWIND
Warrior on the Edge of Time
Atomhenge, the Cherry Red Records label managed by Esoteric Recordings, the home of the entire HAWKWIND catalogue released between 1975 and 1997, are very pleased to announce that the classic HAWKWIND album "WARRIOR ON THE EDGE OF TIME" will be released in May 2013 as a newly remastered edition from the original stereo master tapes. Atomhenge label manager Mark Powell said, "Contrary to popular myth, the master tapes of this classic album were never lost. They remained in the United Artists vaults. The Atomhenge reissue will be the first ever CD edition to be taken from the original first generation master tapes. All previous editions have been taken from vinyl transfers or inferior copy master tapes".
Aside from a single disc remastered edition, there will be two other expanded editions of the album. Mark Powell adds, "I'm extremely pleased to say that Steven Wilson has mixed the album into a stunning 5.1 Surround Sound mix from the original multi-track master tapes and has also undertaken a new stereo mix of the album which has an amazing depth and clarity whilst remaining faithful to the original release. 'Warrior' is one of THE classic albums of the 1970s and is a land-mark album in Hawkwind's history. The forthcoming reissues will do justice this magnificent record".
Full details of the editions of 'Warrior' will be announced in the coming weeks. Cherry Red managing director, Adam Velasco added, "The album 'Warrior on the Edge of Time' has been unavailable officially on CD for many years and it is our intention to make the forthcoming releases definitive editions in terms of audio remastering (from the original master tapes), content and packaging".

wow! Steve Wilson 5.1?!?
I have been picking up these remasters over the years and Atomhenge has been doing a great job. Now they have to revisit and do 5.1 for all.

I've never owned this one and only own one Hawkwind album (the great Space Ritual). So it will be fun to experience Steven Wilson's remaster of this title in 5.1!!!  I'll ask Steve about these when I see him in April.

I'm in, but I'm still keeping my limited edition box issued by Griffin in 1993.
