Spacemen 3 - Dreamweapon

"An Evening Of Contemporary Sitar Music" from 1988.

This is a 43 minute drone with some sitars on it, which was recorded at Waterman's Art Centre in Hammersmith. Fuck knows what sort of a nick you'd have had to be in to attend such an evening but I'm sure everyone was suitably spaced out.

The reissued version of this had extra tracks but my Fierce UK one only has this one. According to Wikipedia the sleeve notes (not on my version) credit Pat Fish, a.k.a. the Jazz Butcher, with "joint rolling."

Quite nice to stick on if you're lying about doing fuck all and just want to zone out, it's had a full airing on more than one Sunday afternoon round at Moggieboy Towers. Tends to be the sort of thing that girls hate though - definitely a 'guy on his own' kinda thing. "Get that shite off" has been heard on more than one occasion (by more than one girl as well), but I'd be interested to hear of any females who dig the Dreamweapon...

I've got a vague recollection of being at that gig, but needless to say, it is very vague...

I'm a girl, and I think this is awesome. I've participated in jams like this. One chord= guaranteed success, especially when stoned. Thanks so much for this post!
