Merlin's Time was released on 24 Carrots, Al Stewart's ninth album, in the summer of 1980. Since nearly all Al Stewart's albums are strong it's not surprising that this record is so great....I'd say it's one of my favorites (which it is) but in the case of Al Stewart nearly each and every one of his records is a favorite! I remember when it was released thinking that it would be a much greater commercial success, there were at least 3-4 songs with potential to be hit singles (besides Midnight Rocks which stalled out at #24), Rocks In The Ocean , Running Man , this song, and maybe Optical Illusion would have seemed good candidates for release. • I've been working on a video for my favorite song from this album, Murmansk Run/Ellis Island for quite awhile but since it's taking so long I decided to jump into Merlin's Time (I've had several requests for this one). It's such a very short song there wasn't much room for multiple images and I ended up really working with just a few clips and pictures....mainly Bodiam Castle. If it's a late medieval moated castle you're wanting, Bodiam is it! I worked up several pictures of this unbelievably gorgeous place up for the vid, man some places must be impossible to take a bad picture of and this is surely one as there are so many awesome shots of it...but en the end I just used the one.....although I spent the majority of time for this video removing people/signs/cars from another one I really loved...and ended up (although the Photoshop work was pretty clean) not even using it! • Thanks to all who's art created this new art! Including: • Moving Art Channel • / louieschwartzberg • • Owl Productions/Joseph Lodato Channel • / josephlodato • Anyway, as usual I hope you enjoy the effort, in this case for Al Stewart's hauntingly beautiful Merlin's Time . • [Lyrics] • And I think of you now • As a dream that I had long ago • In a kingdom lost in time • In a forest of evening • The archer is bending a bow • And I see you bring him bread and wine • Down the legions of years • The invaders have taken this land • And bent you to their will • And the memories fade of the ancients • And all that they had • Though the magic lingers round you still • Oh, who would walk the stony roads • of Merlin's time? • And keep the watch along the borderline • And who would hear the legends passed • in song and rhyme? • Upon the shepherd pipes of Merlin's time
