Our Take

Robert Calvert's "Captain Lockheed and the Starfighters" is a wild ride through space-rock insanity, with more twists and turns than a rollercoaster on acid. This album is a sonic journey through the outer reaches of the galaxy, with Calvert's quirky vocals leading the way like a spaced-out tour guide.

From the opening track "Franz Josef Strauss, Defence Minister, Reviews the Luftwaffe in 1958", you know you're in for a weird and wonderful ride. Calvert's lyrics are a mix of science fiction, political satire, and sheer madness, creating a world that is as bizarre as it is captivating.

Musically, the album is a mash-up of prog-rock, punk, and psychedelic influences, with plenty of spacey synths and rockin' guitar riffs to keep your head banging. Tracks like "The Widow Maker" and "The Right Stuff" showcase Calvert's storytelling prowess and knack for creating epic, sprawling rock operas.

Overall, "Captain Lockheed and the Starfighters" is a must-listen for any fan of weird and wacky rock music. Calvert's unique vision and off-the-wall lyrics make this album a true gem in the world of music. Strap in, crank up the volume, and prepare for takeoff – this one's a trip you won't forget.
