Procol Harum - Something Magic (Live, BBC Radio 1 In Concert, Golders Green Hippodrome, 12 March 1977)

Hello, and welcome to Radio 1 sight and sound in concert Which you can hear not only on the radio one, 247 metres in the medium wave band But also in glorious stereo, on the Radio 2 VHF network between 88 and 91 megahertz Or if you prefer you can watch it on BBC 2 in glorious colour if you got a coloured TV that is on BBC 2 Well, tonight's concert promises to be a magical occasion And I say that not only because our guest this evenin' are one of the world's finest bands But they've just produced their 10th album Which is entitled "Something Magic" And here, with the title track from that album, are the one and only 'Procol Harum' One, two, three, four It's the centre of the storm Somethin' magic being born When the world is torn apart By the beatin' of a heart Like a dam about to burst Like a drunkard's crazy thirst In the centre of the storm Somethin' magic being born It's the dark hours of the soul When the nightmares take their toll When the shadows come to mock Against the tickin' of the clock When the demons of the night Come like vultures for their bite In the dark hours of the soul When the nightmares take their toll It's the dawnin' of the day Nighttime's panic swept away When the clouds which seemed so dark Are exchanged for morning's light When the stars which burnt so bright Are exchanged for morning's light In the dawnin' of the day Nighttime's panic swept away Nighttime's panic swept away Thank you very much and good evenin'
