In July 1950, Hazel Scott became the first African-American to host their own television program, The Hazel Scott Show. It was an immediate success, and the DuMont Network quickly increased the national broadcasts each week from one to three.
Then came Oprah Winfrey

Farewell to Harpo, who we said goodbye to yesterday. He was an adorable agent of chaos, and the cover star of my band’s album and EP. He’ll be sadly missed and fondly remembered.

Lyrics:
Maybe that I am blind
Maybe that I won't find
The signs within my mind
Maybe that I am blind
Maybe that I am blind
Maybe that I won't find
The signs within my mind
Maybe that I am blind
We'll hope my heart is burning
That's so good I will be learning
The Secrets how to live to take and to give
Temptation's and desire
My world is like a fire
In magic circles
The earth is slowly turning
I'm looking (I'm here looking)
I'm searching (I'm still searching)
I read my horoscope
I'm looking (I'm here looking)
I'm searching (I'm still searching)
I read my horoscope
Maybe that I am blind
Maybe that I won't find
The signs within my mind
There ain't no communication
But I'm trying to make it
There's a world of gloss and I'm trying to break it
With my tiny little hands I'm building castles in the sand
I'm only one of the lost generation
I'm looking (I'm here looking)
I'm searching (I'm still searching)
I read my horoscope
I'm looking (I'm here looking)
I'm searching (I'm still searching)
I read my horoscope
Maybe that I am blind
Maybe that I won't find
The signs within my mind
Maybe that I am blind
I don't know why or if I'm going for
But I look to the sky and I follow my star
I'm looking at the space through my kaleidoscope
And every day I read my horoscope
I'm looking
I'm searching
I read my horoscope
I'm looking (I'm looking)
I'm searching (I'm searching)
I read my horoscope
I'm looking
I'm searching
I read my horoscope
I'm looking (I'm here looking)
I'm searching (I'm still searching)
I read my horoscope
Maybe that I am blind
Maybe that I won't find
The signs within my mind
Maybe that I am blind
Maybe that I won't find
The signs within my mind
Maybe that I am blind
Songwriter: Harpo
Maybe that I am blind
Maybe that I won't find
The signs within my mind
