Robert Calvert "The Right Stuff"

[Artognou]

Why anyone would click dislike to this is beyond me. May their ears be purged with a 15mm drill piece, in rotation.

Patrick Lynch?

Wasn't he the inspiration for the Comic Strip episode 'The Yob'.?

Silver machine is just apop song compared to this!

[MrCriticOfAll]

@mccon59 Nah silver machine should go with downhill bike riding.

[cuppateadee]

[Milanderkoszeg]

[WizzSpell]

Great video for a fantastic song. Thanks :)

[kaioxygen]

I personally prefer Hawkwind's version of this, but Bob will always be a hero of mine.

[sidensvans54]

Listen to Lemmy hammering that Bass..

Fabulous Album.

Great Video,, Thank you :)

[smithpm81]

excellent video and song

[badmev]

dood gr8 choice of tune....why choose this tune just curious man....catch a falling star fighter put it in your pocket lol

[CAP381470]

i chose it because 1 i didn't have catch a falling star fighter (which in my opinion is better) and 2 i am going to be a fighter pilot

[HeidiLandRover]

@CAP381470 ...not just a fighter pilot, Sir: a STARFIGHTER pilot. ;¬)

[GaragePunkSkanker]

@CAP381470 May I say (and this as a lifelong Hawkwind / Calvert fan) that I think Robert would have appreciated the (minimal) extra noise added to the song by the cockpit chatter and engine noise. It's well within the spirit of the original.

[CAP381470]

@GaragePunkSkanker Thanks for saying that! It was actually totally accidental, I removed the audio from nearly all of the clips but a few slipped through into the final product and I didn't notice until I had already uploaded it. I truly appreciate you saying that.

[BigPuschlerX]

Well I expected to see some F-104s in action, but this video is pretty cool too. Thanks for posting.

[CAP381470]

i was trying to but i couldn't find any good ones that hadn't already been used for videos like this

[Heuri1]

@CAP381470 Aw damn...run out of Revlon I see!

[MrCrapakaEliRoth]

As with nearly all genuises, they leave this planet too soon. He was way ahead of his time, such a shame.

[bah324]
