Hi everyone. I'm just hoping if any one can help me out? I have the warrior on the edge of time cd on the Hawkdiscs 1992 (DOJO CD 084) pink dojo label, and recently purchased another copy on ebay, but the title says 'Warrior AT the edge of time' not 'ON', and there is no black outline on the Hawkwind band lettering on the cover. Everything else is exactly the same as my other copy, except that the pink cd is a little duller in colour. I just wanted to ask if anyone knows if this is genuine or a fake? Many thanks for any information. Mark.

Thanks for this very much....
My opinion is it doesn't matter, but if questions were to be asked, mine might be: (which is still your question):
Was this pressed back in 1992 by Dojo or is it a more recent pirate? (in which case you must remain the only person to have it )
Either way you're a "hero" now.......

after I posted, I admit I had to dash into my collection for a peak at my (only remaining and still sealed) copy.
the title is rather large on the back , and so I ask you: is the title changed in all places?

Mine says "warrior on" the front and back and "warrior at" on the sides
to further muddy things the liner notes has both!?! purchased many many years ago
Pink disc "Motorhead" sounds like its from a 45

Hi mike and brannert. The title does say 'AT' on the side as well as the front! but everything else is identical to my other copy, apart from, like i say the Hawkwind logo on the front cover being in only pink lettering, not pink with black outline. I emailed the seller on ebay but unfortunately she was selling it on behalf of the owner who had sadly passed away! Wonder if it is just a misprint or maybe an import or something? but google isn't fetching me any answers!

just a slight addition...the title says warrior on the edge of time in large black letters on the back, but says 'at' the edge of time along the spine and on the front cover.

It's great
if it were mine I'd probably have it on display for myself for a while!!!

I have one copy which has warrior on the edge of time on the front and back, but warrior at the edge of time along the spine. The new copy i have acquired has warrior at the edge of time on the front and spine, but warrior on the edge of time on the back. The writing is different on the new copy and the pink not as bright on the cd itself or insert, so i'm just wondering if i'm buying fakes that's all. If no one seems to know then fair enough

I am pretty sure nobody is being rude. I am pretty sure it is because you have got yourself a collector's item whatever the actual origin of it is.
I get embarrassed (repeatedly) mentioning friends of mine with whopping collections, but I do it again here to make the point.
My friend in germany doesn't have this and he is well-known for his vast collection and (one of) my other friends in UK also did not know of this and he is conneted to a few others with huge. collections and I never got word back that anyone besides you have this.
The guy in Austria might, I don't know. but I suspect a few of us, including me, have our eyes open

Ah, prepositions of place-- people never get them right!

funny!!
oh we know where HE is alright!!!

In an attempt to take this rocket-car blazing across the canyon and smashing into a rock with me in it...
I remembered that I thought all the spines I'd seen used "AT" instead of "ON". I had another look at mine, and indeed it is that way.
Using this as a "key", it tells me that further credit might go towards what you might like to hear and what I'd like to tell you:
genuine collectors item!! ???
Just think, somebody might have a totally correct one.

Thanks for the reply's folks. Mike, I am in no doubt that the copy i have which has warrior 'ON' the edge of time on the front cover is collectible and quite rare, because i bought it when it was released, but now i'm not sure if this is, as you say, a 'correct one'! Does yours have black outlining around the actual Hawkwind logo on the front cover can i ask? I was just worried i might have bought a fake with regards to the one with 'AT' on the cover and different lettering/colouring. There are a few of these for sale on ebay and amazon listed as 'new' and after contacting the sellers they don't know seem to know if they are 'new' releases or original old copies. I didn't think there were any 'new' releases of this cd? Cheers again though mike

Little comfused and woke up with something scratchy in my eye (ANNOYING), still not awake, BUT
If you are saying these "@" copies are showing up NOW, and you can see more available, then my opinion changes, even though it might be wrong. I think Dojo label was connected to Doug Smith (I think), and my instinct tells me these would then be NOT official or original copies.
Please note that I do not claim to be right, that is just my opinion. I did look for that black outline you mentioned on my original "ON" copy, and I would say it is there, however faint

Forgiive me for asking what might be a silly question, but did you compare the source music on both these versions to make SURE they used the same old vinyl masters???

Also, sounds to me like the mosquitos are fiilling a void. Again
