The song reached number three in the UK singles charts and Hawkwind appeared on the BBC’s Top of the Pops a fortnight before the Caird Hall concert. Silver Machine was released as a single on June 9 1972, after the original vocals from the band’s Bob Calvert were re-recorded with Lemmy’s legendary growl! With Lenny at the helm the band enjoyed a meteoric rise over the next 12 months.

Lemmy then auditioned for Hawkwind in August 1971 as a guitar player but they didn’t need one so he was persuaded to pick up the bass and the rest is history. Stacia joined the band for the first time on stage in 1971. Stacia agreed and immediately became an integral part of the live show and her routine included a mime of a robot who was given a pill and becomes human for a spell. She hitched down to the Flamingo Ballroom in Redruth and asked if she could dance and they said: “Yes, if you take all your clothes off and paint your body.” Stacia met the band’s Nik Turner at the Isle Of Wight Festival in 1970 but she first appeared on stage with Hawkwind in Redruth on April 15 1971. The band was formed in 1969 and by the time of their 1971 album In Search Of Space, Hawkwind were infamous for their sci-fi themed music and theatrical concerts. The fact dancer Stacia liked to perform naked as the prog-rock giants played was more of a problem for the powers that be. He was the hard-drinking, hard-smoking, leather-clad wild man who was one of rock’s greatest icons as the leader of Motörhead.īut it wasn’t front-man Lemmy’s antics that saw his first band, Hawkwind, banned from the Caird Hall after a wild Dundee gig 50 years ago.

When the time comes that you have to betray their trust and take part in their undoing, there is a real sense of betrayal. Spend enough time with people who like and trust you, doing what they do, and you're likely to develop some affection for them, even though what they do goes against your moral principles. If the officer is later called to testify in court, an episode of narcotics use can reduce or destroy his credibility as a witness.Īn ideal UC is an amiable type who makes friends easily. Narcotics use must be strictly avoided, not only because of its illegality, but because the officer is as subject to becoming addicted as is anyone else. If he anticipates having to take part in a crime, the activity has to be approved in advance. The UC constantly walks a fine line because he is not supposed to break the law while working in the UC role. This can happen anywhere, of course, but the closer you are to home, the more likely it is to happen to you. Imagine sitting at a bar, talking with a criminal who believes you are a crook just like him, when a former high school classmate walks up and addresses you in your real name, asking if you are still with the cops.

This saves money, but it invites special risk. Some agencies use UC officers in the same communities where they've grown up or worked as regular officers. He may have a complete criminal history, credit report and other background data established in the UC persona.
