  • Harvey Frederick Bainbridge (born 24 September 1949, in Dorset) is a British bass and keyboard player. He is best known as the bass player and keyboard player in Hawkwind. He initially joined Hawkwind members Dave Brock and Robert Calvert in 1977 in a band called Sonic Assassins in which he played bass guitar. Sonic Assassins was formed by Brock to exist alongside Hawkwind, but to focus on playing local concerts around the South West of England. When Hawkwind split up after the 1978 tour of the USA, Bainbridge was asked to play for the new band Hawklords. By 1979, the Hawklords had largely disintegrated and although the legal ownership of the name "Hawkwind" was still in doubt, Brock and Bainbridge re-created Hawkwind. Prior to joining the Hawklords in July 1978, Harvey Bainbridge had been involved in a number of performing groups. Harvey's first musical group was when he was at school. A group of friends formed a band called Fredsfuzz with Martin Bland on vocals, brother Lawrence on drums, Gary Tinson on lead, Harvey, having just purchased a bass guitar and amplifier, took the bass position and of course 'Fred' on organ. The group was a rhythm and blues band, playing Chuck Berry numbers and the like. Bainbridge continued to play bass with the band until late 1984. He then became the band's primary keyboard player, as Brock recruited the 20-year old Alan Davey into the band to play bass. Bainbridge continued in this role until 1991. Since leaving Hawkwind, he has worked mainly as a solo performer but has also performed with Lancashire space rockers Earthling Society at a number of their shows. Harvey Bainbridge with Spaceseed released a new record on Zeta Reticuli Records called The Empire of Night in 2006.
  • Harvey Frederick Bainbridge on brittiläinen muusikko, joka parhaiten muistetaan Hawkwindin pitkäaikaisena basistina ja kosketinsoittajana. Vuonna 1977 Hawkwindin laulaja Robert Calvert ja kitaristi Dave Brock kasasivat sivuprojektiyhtyeen Sonic Assassins, johon he pyysivät soittajiksi Devonilaisen Ark-yhtyeen jäseniä. Mukaan pääsivät kosketinsoittaja Paul Hayles, rumpali Martin Griffin ja basisti Harvey Bainbridge. Sonic Assassins soitti keikan 23. joulukuuta 1977 Barnstaplessa. Keikka nauhoitettiin ja siitä on julkaistu kappaleita erilaisilla kokoelmilla. Vuoden 1978 keväällä Hawkwind hajosi vaikean Yhdysvaltain kiertueen jälkeen ja Calvert ja Brock pyysivät Bainbridgeä basistiksi uuteen kokoonpanoon, jonka nimi olisi laillisista syistä Hawklords. Vuotta myöhemmin Hawklordsinkin hajottua Brock ja Bainbridge kasasivat Hawkwindin uudelleen ja Bainbridge pysyikin yhtyeessä aina vuoteen 1991 asti. Hän toimi basistina vuoteen 1984 asti ja sen jälkeen päätoimisena kosketinsoittajana. Yhtyeestä lähdön jälkeen Bainbridge on ollut pääsääntöisesti soolouralla.
