Chris Hawkins presents archive tracks from 1970s jazz-fusion outfit Light of the World, plus there's parts one and two of the Seven Ages of Rock - the Birth of Rock and Art Rock.

Staying up all night? Or a freakishly early riser? Let The Hawk keep you company with great music, documentaries, and daft ramblings.

Tonight live music, lovingly hand-picked from the 成人快手 archives, comes courtesy of jazz fusion outfit Light Of The World, who were the original forerunners of the British jazz-funk movement in the late 1970s (the band took their name from the 1974 Kool and the Gang album Light of Worlds). Plus there's another chance to play Chris's daft early morning quiz Play Your Birthday Cards Right.
