1. Starfarer's "Hawkwind Trivia" has this to say, among many
   other bits and pieces: "The lyrics to Magnu are based upon the
   3rd verse of Song of Apollo by Percy Bysshe Shelley".

   OK, so I Googled for the poem.  Realized I needed the song
   lyrics to compare, googled "Magnu"...

   and found this:

   This guy was trying to figure out a name for a stray cat
   they'd just taken in, and "For some unknown reason, I blurted
   out the name Magnu. Don't ask me what it means, I still don't
   know."

   Odd enough, but just above that quote is a link "Back to the
   Apollo Page".  Now this is getting spooky.

It must be said that they would have sounded better if the singer
wouldn't throw his fellow band members to the ground and toss the
drum kit around during songs.
