	Nik Turner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Nik Turner is a British musician, probably best known as a founder of space rock pioneers Hawkwind.
		Recently his two main bands have been SpaceRitual and Nik Turner's Allstars with flexible and overlapping line-ups (as was the case in the early 1970s with Hawkwind and the Pink Fairies.) At some of his gigs former Hawkwind members guest including Ron Tree and, until his death, Robert Calvert.
		Turner regularly plays with new and experimental musicians and also busks with his roadie Irv near his home in Wales.

	Enterzone: NIK TURNER
		Nik's outfit is backed by ex-HW members Alan Powell on drums and Del Dittmar on synths and axe handle (Del plays an axe hooked up to 70's synths...by pressing on the handle much the way you'd fret a guitar, Del is mysteriously able to generate spacy synth tones).
		Nik took the stage dressed in a white suit that resembled a spacesuit; the space helmet he removed during the first tune certainly lended credence to that resemblance.
		Nik also had painted his face with silver metallic paint; though he seemed to be enjoying himself, there's something a little awkward about a 50 year old musician being that theatrical, especially in front of the paltry crowd of 120 of so rabid HW fans (the Variety Playhouse is WAY too big for this show!).

	MTV Music \| Nik Turner - Profile and Biography
		Turner was an integral part of the band's prime period, contributing not only sax and flute work but also vocals and occasional songwriting (including the band staple "Brainstorm," which appeared on 1972's Doremi Fasol Latido, and the classic "Silver Machine," which he co-wrote with Dave Brock).
		Turner used his newfound freedom to travel to Egypt, where he soaked up the history and culture, and also made a recording of his flute music in the King's Chamber of the Great Pyramid of Cheops.
		The ICU released The President's Tapes that same year, which would prove to be Turner's last album with the group; he left in 1986 to concentrate on a smaller-scale project called the Nik Turner All-Stars, who took the big band swing predilections of the ICU into relatively straightforward territory.

	Reefer Madness...Nik Turner interview 1975
		Nik thought that the band had grown away although he felt that this was to a large extent the fault of the media who have created the 'star' myth.
		Nik reckoned that many of the idolisers envied the way that they supposed that Nik lived which was a myth, because their supposition was so far from the truth.
		Nik said that the success of the single had changed their views on singles and, as he was keen to point out, the single had been put out specifically to succeed in order to provide much needed money for the very expensive Space Ritual.

		Except for Nik and HW, this band was the highlight of the weekend for me. Their live set was dripping with the styles of Ash Ra Temple and the like, with liquid guitar solos, and haunting vocals from the percussionist.
		Nik poured a tremendous amount of energy into his performance and his vocals, and the band turned on a dime right with him.
		Nik had broken his leg earlier in the week (rumor was a motorcycle accident), and arrived on crutches that afternoon.

	Nik Green
		Nik says, "I was taught piano in the uptight, rigid English tradition -- I hated it and completely rejected formal training" but his relationship with music was rescued by his great aunt who encouraged Nik to imrpovise as well as teaching him old Broadway tunes, ragtime and syncopation, "and all things frowned upon".
		Nik quit piano at 17, and soon after was "fired up" by the sounds of the synthesizer: "I re-taught myself pretty much from scratch".
		Nik also worked with Inner City Unit as engineer/co-producer with Nik Turner on the EP "Blood and Bone." Nik also has done time in various studios as sound engineer, programmer, and designing digital audio gear for Dawnhope and AMS.

	Nik Turner (Interview))
		Nik: Forefathers, yeah, ancestors, and so the old people, so the grandfather is in touch with the ancestors, and so was the small boy, he spent a lot of time with his grandfather, who told him lots of traditional stories and wisdom of that tribe.
		Nik: Well, they had lots of bands playing there, they got bands from Amsterdam, 'cause we go around all these sort of provincial towns, but they'd have bands from Amsterdam coming out to play, and Dave's band was one of the bands that were playing in it, you know, The Famous Cure.
		Nik: Well, it's quite interesting that you say that, because, I mean I read this article in Mojo magazine, in which Lemmy said: oh, Hawkwind was not a, we were not a peace and love band, we were always on speed.

	Nik Turner Email Interview May 2002
		Nik Turner offered to do an email interview, and I just got the answers back from him today (29/05/02).
		I have gone out as 'Nik Turner's Hawkwind', in the U.S.A. [I actually consider that everyone that's ever been in the band has the right to do this, some may disagree], this was not attempting to pass my band off as anything other than my band.
		Nik should call his band the Kittyhawks to defuse the issue of xhawkwind being confused with Hawkwind.

		Nik Turner is, at first, seemingly very conscious that this is an interview, an accordingly there is an initial reserve about his replies, although a couple more cups of coffee help dissolve the formality of the situation.

		IS A monumental ‘live’ double of excellent sound quality and production, that features a selection of Turner tracks and a whole stack of Hawkwind classics including 'Silver Machine' as well as a stunning line-up of musicians plus some of the best space-rock playing heard outside of an actual Hawkwind album.
		IS No, not the old album from the mid 1970's, but a studio album that has Turner returning to the Hawkwind style of music for which he is justly most famous and at which he always excels.
		It comes complete with a nod to the past, in the form of one of his solo flute pieces, and it’s a twenty-five minute bonus track that was recorded inside the Great Pyramid.

		Anubian Lights are Nik Turner, members of Pressurehed, and ex-Hawkwind members Del Dettmar and Simon House.
		IS Still regarded as one of his finest albums to date, this is a largely instrumental slice of Hawkwind-esque driving space-rock, with the guitarist on top form as a series of searing licks and steaming riffs storm out of the speakers on a fine selection of surging tracks.
		Complete with great dynamics, care of the synthesizers and rhythm section, plus an exclusive ‘live’ track from the Nik Turner band of the time, for which he was lead guitarist.

		Big Steve was a VERY tall guy who did a lot of the onstage announcements/between-band stuff.
		At some time during the power cut Nik Turner dropped his trousers and mooned at the audience.

		Nik Turner has created a unique ambience with this spoken word voyage thru ancient Egyptian mysteries.
		Drawing heavily on the Egyptian Book of the Dead for content, Nik's almost mantra like intonation evokes powerful imagery from a civilisation more than 2000 years in the past, a civilisation who's belief and reliance on the supernatural powers of the gods extended far beyond what we have discovered today.
		OK it is not Xitintotoday, but if you want Xitintoday then buy Xitintoday, this is great in its own right: spacey, ambient, hypnotic, a great album fitting in with Niks recent (well 94) return.

	Nik Turner - "Transglobal Friends and Relations"
		The rest of the album is comprised mainly of live songs from Nik's Hawkwind-revival tours of '94 and '95, some differing enough from previously-released versions (see "Space Ritual 1994" and "Past or Future"), some not.
		Still, this gets me so pumped and is a good example of Nik and co. doing more than just covering a Hawkwind song, but forcefully altering it into a new piece.
		As it was a Nik show, Len del Rio is also in attendance to add his epic keyboards, and Farflung's love for change-of-pace/build-up drama is as powerful as ever.

		Can't confirm the Nik Turner thing, but EVERYONE in our Urban lot who was there for Zion Train's set, agreed that they were mindblowingly superb!
