Customer Reviews

Start Talking LIVE!!!
I went to the Birmingham show, which features on this live CD, and I have to say that I was looking forward to this gig more than the 'Storyteller's Night' shows the band did a few years ago.

As for the show, I felt that the first set was a bit too predictable. It's always great to hear the band play 'Vigilante', 'Kingdom Of Madness' and 'How Far Jerusalem' etc, but they seem to play these songs on just about every tour these days. I would have loved to have heard them play 'Back To Earth', 'The Prize', 'Lonely Night' and 'Stormy Weather' for a change, especially considering these live dates were supposed to be special.
The second set comprised of 'The Wings Of Heaven' album in it's entirety and was a joy to behold. The band played those particular songs with a harder, darker edge, not to be heard on the original recordings. 'Wild Swan' and 'Don't Wake The Lion' were particularly outstanding.
The individual performances on the night were spot on. Bob Catley gave it everything on vocals and Tony Clarkin's guitarwork seems to get better and better. The rhythm section of Al Barrow and Jimy Copley on bass and drums respectively has to be the heaviest and most technically proficient the band has ever had, and Mark Stanway's keyboards gave the whole sound a bit of class.
The venue was packed to the rafters, and the atmosphere was electric. Worth noting was Bob Catley's clear heartbreak when speaking of the plight of original Magnum drummer Kex Gorin, who sadly died recently.
I have to say I'm looking forward to how this live album is going to turn out (as of writing this, it hasn't been released yet) and if the beefy sound on the night transfers to disc effectively.
It was a top gig and a great night, despite the smell of wee.
Now, all Magnum have to do is play the 'Chase The Dragon' and 'Vigilante' albums in their entirety live and we can all die happy.

20 Years on and still Flying High
Went to 3 of these live recordings and they are just fantastic, the new tracks are brilliant live and the Wings of heaven performance in the second half of the concert was just amazing. Bob`s voice is as good as it was at the Manchester Apollo 20 years ago and Tony`s guitar work was superb as usuall. Get this CD in its first week of release and lets get them back in the charts where they belong.

Live Present And Kicking!
Me & my mates were there at birmingham at a live recording!!!
Can't wait for this to arrive!
