A Space in Time is the sixth studio album by the British blues rock band Ten Years After. It was released in August 1971 by Chrysalis Records in the United Kingdom and Columbia Records in America. A departure in style from their previous albums, A Space in Time is less 'heavy' than previous albums and includes more acoustic guitar, perhaps influenced by the success of Led Zeppelin who were mixing acoustic songs with heavier numbers It reached number 17 in the Billboard 200.

After the Goldrush
Well, I dreamed I saw the knights
In armor coming,
Saying something about a queen.
There were peasants singing and
Drummers drumming
And the archer split the tree.
There was a fanfare blowing
To the sun
That was floating on the breeze.
Look at Mother Nature on the run
In the nineteen seventies.
Look at Mother Nature on the run
In the nineteen seventies.
I was lying in a burned out basement
With the full moon in my eyes.
I was hoping for replacement
When the sun burst thru the sky.
There was a band playing in my head
And I felt like getting high.
I was thinking about what a
Friend had said
I was hoping it was a lie.
Thinking about what a
Friend had said
I was hoping it was a lie.
Well, I dreamed I saw the silver
Space ships flying
In the yellow haze of the sun,
There were children crying
And colors flying
All around the chosen ones.
All in a dream, all in a dream
The loading had begun.
They were flying Mother Nature's
Silver seed to a new home in the sun.
Flying Mother Nature's
Silver seed to a new home.
The Great Divide van het album Silver & Gpld
"Great Divide"
In the canyons of the great divide
Familiar places
that we can run and hide
Are filled with strangers
Walking in our houses alone
In the great divide
Nothing to decide
No one else to care for or love
In the great divide
You won't fit in too well
On the horses of the carousel
She rides alone with you and me
She rides like she knows
Wherever she goes, we'll be there
On the carousel
Life is going well
Anyone can tell, we're in love
On the Carousel
You're gonna like the way you feel
You and I we got caught down there
In the twisted canyons
of the great divide
We walked the floor
Now we don't go there anymore
In the great divide
Nothing to decide
No one else to care for or love
In the great divide
You don't fit in too well
In the great divide
Nothing to decide
No one else to care for or love
In the great divide
You won't fit in too well

THE sweet sounds of legendary Van Morrison chilled the hot summer
crowd at Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod in a sell out
concert.
One of the most prolific recording artists and live performers in
music history, Sir Van Morrison, took to the Royal International
Pavilion stage on Friday night, captivating the crowd with a myriad of
Irish folk, jazz, blues and country music.
Morrison opened the show with a beautiful rendition of Astral Weeks,
then launched straight into Sweet Thing. Both songs were released from
the album of the same name 50 years ago in 1968, yet still resonate
perfectly today and brought the audience to their feet
