LAST LISTENED TO a while ago
CHANCE OF WAKING TO IT small
RATING
I first heard this on the above compilation, Future Sound Of The UK Vol.2, which was mixed by The Freestylers. I think this was the first time that i knew i was listening to Alan Hawkshaw. I have since come to realise that i had been hearing him since i had first watched tv, but had not been aware of it. The Hawk has been a lynchpin of British library for a long time and as such his music has been placed in more (and varied) tv programmes than you can imagine. This here is one of the best and that's because it's one of the ones to feature his mighty organ most prominently. There's also a fantastic brass intro.
Hawkshaw recorded much more music like this. Some of it was even given a proper release, under the name of The Mohawks. Look out for it.
