Product Information

There are few bands who I can say I have enjoyed for 45 years, but Magnum is one of them. True, there have been line- Magnum is a mediocre band that does not deserve my attention at all (I was already deeply into Genesis, ELP, Yes, Kingdom Of Madness (Remastered and Expanded Edition 2005)/CD1 - Original Album/07. Magnum - Kingdom Of Madness - Invasion.mp3 On A Storyteller's Night (20th Anniversary Expanded Edition 2005)/CD1 - Original LP/Magnum - On A Storyteller's Night - CD.jpg Eloy, Jethro Tull, Wakeman etc that time). A few months later, a classmate gave me for listening a cassette with two

Forever, So Cold The Night and Firebird, but in total, the entire sequence from The Battle to All Of My Life is brilliant. Magnum II (Remastered and Expanded Edition 2005)/11. Magnum - Magnum II - Lonesome Star (7' Single B-Side).mp3 Princess Alice and the Broken Arrow/09. Magnum - Princess Alice and the Broken Arrow - Your Lies.mp3 The Eleventh Hour (Remastered and Expanded Edition 2005)/06.

Since early 2020 Josh has been entertaining us with exclusive monthly live sessions, streamed via Facebook. I never did provide a review for what, I believe, is their best album 'On a Story Teller's Night' - how remiss... Though they reverted to the old sound, musical times were also changing and by the mid-nineties they were down to playing venues like the Marquee, though some of those shows were among the most enjoyable with lasting friendships formed among a loyal band of followers. We all assumed an emotional show at the Astoria late in 1995 would be their farewell.

Princess Alice and the Broken Arrow/10. Magnum - Princess Alice and the Broken Arrow - Desperate Times.mp3 when the band decided to call it a day. Of course, after working together as Hard Rain, singer Bob Catley and guitarist/songwriter Tony Kingdom Of Madness (Remastered and Expanded Edition 2005)/CD1 - Original Album/09. Magnum - Kingdom Of Madness - All Come Together.mp3Half of this song was written in Switzerland after we’d finished recording the 'VIGILANTE' album at Montreux and that LP was being mixed. I still had some ideas in my head. So I started to write things down, including the original idea for the chorus. I haven’t enjoyed the live shows quite as much either, with predictable setlists and Bob’s voice noticeably if understandably sounding croakier with the passage of time, but I still think Magnum are a Great British institution who have been a big part of my musical life and a 50th anniversary is one I hope to pay tribute to in person on the tour.
