Corich.\u003cbr\u003eRecording information: Lansdowne Studios, Holland Park (1972).\u003cbr\u003eUriah Heep's 1972 release, THE MAGICIAN'S BIRTHDAY, followed in the same direction as its predecessor one year earlier, DEMONS AND WIZARDS--mystical lyrical themes are merged with heavy guitar riffs and prog-rock organ\/synth explorations. Sonically, THE MAGICIAN'S BIRTHDAY is a tad more rough around the edges than DEMONS (keyboardist Ken Hensley is given more of a free reign on this album as well), but it's still unmistakably Uriah Heep. The album closing, ten and a half-minute title track is a bona fide Heep epic (with many mood shifts), while \"Sweet Lorraine\" catches the band at their most rough and rocking.","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45935262302495,"sku":"4050538187526","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/19a55766e8ca1dab4aeb4d807284d884.jpg?v=1781787114","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/magicians-birthday-1","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
