Huw Lloyd-Langton

Huw Lloyd-Langton (born Richard Hugh Lloyd-Langton; 6 February 1951) is an English guitarist, best known as the guitarist for Hawkwind.[1] He also had his own band, the Lloyd Langton Group with bass player Kenny Wilson and drummer John Clark (along Ultravox drummer Warren Cann), and is the session lead guitarist for UK band The Meads of Asphodel.

As a member of Hawkwind he appeared on their first album, Hawkwind, before leaving the band.[1] He rejoined the band in 1979, appearing on the Live Seventy Nine album release from that year and the subsequent Levitation album.[1] He continued performing with Hawkwind until 1988. Since then he has made occasional guest appearances, rejoining for a brief spell in 2001/2002 until ill health, Legionnaires' disease, forced him to leave once more.

He sometimes plays solo as a support act for Hawkwind, including at The Brook in Southampton in December 2009.
