Steve Took's solo career and musical ventures with HAWKWIND musicians has been overlooked in musical history. Took remains best known as MARC BOLAN's original partner in TYRANNOSAURUS REX (T.REX).
1977 saw the death of Marc Bolan but the formation of a new band for Steve Took. The Horns, included former STEVE GIBBONS BAND guitar virtuoso JUDGE TREV and DINO FERARI, both of whom would go on to a solid following with HAWKWIND founder NIK TURNER as INNER CITY UNIT (ICU). The Horns recorded a session at the now legendary Pathway Studios. This multi-track master tape has never been released or Bootlegged in any format!
As well as the original versions, this CD also includes remixes where Judge Trev added AMAZING guitar overlays and ICU/NIK TURNER'S ALLSTARS member RICK WELSH put the horns into The Horns. Also two Horns set list Took-penned songs have been recorded with original members JUDGE TREV & DINO FERARI and continuing Steve Took's association with HAWKWIND musicians RON TREE, Hawkwind's bass player/frontman from 1995-2002, recorded bass & vocals for these two new songs.
