The Business Trip is a 1994 live album by the English space rock group Hawkwind. It was recorded at the Slough gig of the group's 1993 tour to promote the It Is the Business of the Future to Be Dangerous album.
Although credited as being live, some of the tracks are studio recorded backing tapes, to which the band mimed, such as "Quark, Strangeness and Charm" and "Berlin Axis". "Terra Mystica". was a bonus on the original vinyl-only release, and has never been performed live. The version of "Quark, Strangeness and Charm" here has a new slower musical backing than the version that appeared on the group's 1977 album Quark, Strangeness and Charm, and this new version was released as an EP without the overdubbed crowd noise. "The Right Stuff" is a cover version from Robert Calvert's 1974 album Captain Lockheed and the Starfighters.
Although banded as a separate track, "The Camera That Could Lie" forms the middle section of "L.S.D."
The notable tracks omitted from the album, recorded at the gig are:
Letting In the Past (Living in the Past), Tibet Is Not China, Psychedelic Warlords, Sputnik Stan, Assassins of Allah (Hassan-i-Sahba) / Space Is Their Palestine.
Davey's original vocals on Golden Void were overdubbed with Brock's.
A good quality video of the entire Slough gig is known to exist.
