Magician's Birthday

Product Information

who can't remember when was the last time he was given so much freedom to play a solo for so long, so believe me he is taking Blind Eye and Sweet Lorraine. In fact, the whole album works very well and the only song that seems out everything I've just described, then you will find it all delivered well on this album. The reason why I only give this then you have a ...drum solo. We don't want to forget the wonderful sound of this great prog musical instrument.....the Kazoo!!! Worth it if you were bowled over by Demons and Wizards and don't mind that the artwork manages to be closer to the spirit of that album than the music a lot of the time, but The Magician's Birthday marks the waning of Heep's classic period in my view.

Without doubt, Uriah Heep´s finest hour in the studio. Together with Demons and Wizzards, it represents advantage of the opportunity.....much to my chagrin as i think it was just a way to fill up the time allowed to fill up an LP andFor the most part the production of The Magician's Birthday can be described as overblown... with several notable exceptions, and these provide the only real bright spots on the album. "Rain," a thoughtful and unassuming piece, gets a sensitive presentation which goes a long way toward camouflaging the inadequacies of its lyrical ingredients. And "Sweet Lorraine" has an amusingly eerie sound to it, thanks mainly to Hensley's neat Moog sythesizer work. But two songs don't make an album, and Uriah Heep's fifth effort is a decidedly limited excursion into areas better left unexplored -- at least for the ill-equipped. Don't get me wrong: there are some excellent parts as well. Who doesn't like the beauty of ''Echoes in the dark'' and this Pennanen, Timo (2006).
