I saw Hawkwind live in 1975 at the Reading Festival.
They topped the bill on the Friday night and there was a lot of magic in the air.
This is my favourite track taken from Warriors On The Edge Of Time and is called Magnu.
With the mighty Magnu all things remain possible .. .. until we diminish by the reign of night.
Magnu horse with golden mane
I want your help yet once again
Walk not the Earth but fly through space
As lightning flash or thunder's race
Swift as the arrow from the bow
Come to me so that no one can know,
Sunbeams are my shafts to kill,
All men who dare imagine ill
Deceit that fears the light of day
Fly from the glory of my ray
Good minds open and take new light
Until we diminish by the reign of night
Until we diminish by the reign of night
Until we diminish by the reign of night
Until we diminish by the reign of night
