The compositions on Space Shanty are 6-10 minutes, and in these minutes much happens. There are both some of the meanest hard rock riffs I have ever heard, great rock/ jazzy instrumental passages, nice vocal melodies and an overall feel that these musicians are having fun. Too bad they only made this one album.
- Nick Greenwood - bass, vocals
- Steve Hillage - guitars, vocals
- Eric Peachy - drums
- Dave Stewart - organ, piano, skyceleste, marimbas
1. Space shanty (8:59)2. Stranded (6:35)
3. Mixed up man of the mountains(7:14)
4. Driving to Amsterdam (9:22)
5. Stargazers (5:32)
6. Hollow stone (8:16)
Best known as the album that first brought the guitar playing talents of guitarist Steve Hillage to public prominence, Khan’s sole album is a splendid example of a fusion of Canterbury flavoured rock combined with jazz and space rock influences. Originally released in 1972 by Deram Records, the Eclectic Discs reissue is the album’s first appearance on CD in Britain for over ten years and has been remastered from the original master tapes. This expanded edition includes two previously unreleased bonus tracks and extensive liner notes and is sure to appeal to all fans of Steve Hillage.

Agree this is a great album,Steve Hillage is a very underrated guitarist, even the strange Gong albums had some nice guitar work from him, but the solo stuff is even better.
Thanks for sharing(hope u understand my English)

Hola error404, en mi recorrido por los blogs, siempre me detengo en el tuyo y compruebo, las magníficas grabaciones de que dispones. A la vez, trato en lo posible de contribuir, con pequeños granitos de arena, pero que finalmente nos sumergen en la gloria de las grabaciones buscadas. Particularmente "Khan", entre sus reediciones, está la del sello "Eclectic" que has posteado, pero faltan los dos tracks adicionales (y en honor a la verdad son unas verdaderas "gemas"), te doy el "link" de los dos tracks,
Los nombres:
Khan-Space Shanty (Bonus Tracks)
7 - Break The Chains (Bonus Track)
8 - Mixed Up Man Of The Mountains (First version)

Hi erro404, in my journey through the blogs, I always pause in yours, and I note, the magnificent recordings that you have. At the same time, I try as much as possible to contribute, "small grains of sand", but finally we plunge in the glory of the recordings wanted. Particularly "Khan", among its reissues, is the label of "Eclectic" with two additional tracks, but those tracks are missing (and in truth there are some true "gems"), I give you the link of the two tracks,
The names:
Khan-Space Shanty (Bonus Tracks)
7 - Break The Chains (Bonus Track)
8 - Mixed Up Man Of The Mountains (First version)
And the link:

Well error404, enjoy it, along with the readers of your great blog.
A big hug,
Fran Solo
