The Eagles-Journey of the Sorcerer ( Long Version)

my favourite song ever produced --- sit back- -chill--enjoy :-)

Waiting for YouTube to allow me to allow me to post the 19min video---apparently i have to let them put adds on it and stuff----waiting on them---sorry for the delay


a scaled down version of Journey of the Sorcerer was used as the theme tune to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

If you have time -- please rate and comment --thankyou

....a towel has immense psychological value. For some reason, if a strag (strag: nonhitchhiker) discovers that a hitchhiker has his towel with him, he will automatically assume that he is also in possession of a toothbrush, washcloth, soap, tin of biscuits, flask, compass, map, ball of string, gnat spray, wet-weather gear, space suit etc., etc. Furthermore, the strag will then happily lend the hitchhiker any of these or a dozen other items that the hitchhiker might accidentally have "lost". What the strag will think is that any man who can hitch the length and breadth of the galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through, and still knows where his towel is, is clearly a man to be reckoned with.....

Well lets look at this logically. This is Youtube. Though there are exceptions at times, most videos are limited to 10 minutes or less. Especially if they hold copyrighted material within them. The version he wants to upload is 19 minutes long, even if he did upload it, it'd be broken into two parts... so either A. He doesn't want to do that. B. He doesn't know how to do that. or C. Tried to do it but it didn't work. My suggestion? Find somewhere other than Youtube to listen to it.

@Pseudodonn7 indeed ---- waiting on getting full videos unlocked :)

We've reached 4K! How much longer until the 19 minute version? Also, are these other versions sections of the long one, or is the 19 minute one a separate recording? Thanks for uploading, I love this song.

@t20i1h5u23 the song in this video is a chopped version of the studio copy

BBC Radio 2... way back in the early 80's... usually late at night.... The first few cords of this tune would make my hair stand on end!... And i'm still waiting for my lemon scented paper napkin.

I first heard this song on National Public Radio in Detroit. it was in appx. '82 when they aired the Hitchhicker's Guide to the Galaxy radio dramas from the BBC. It was the theme song then too. I would rush home to record the episodes on cassette tape!
