Magnum On Track : Every Album, Every Song
Magnum - Book - by Matthew Taylor
(2024)
Celebrating 50 years as a band in 2022, Magnum remain a musical enigma,
much loved by legions of fans despite never fitting easily into the
sub-genres favoured by rock music critics. Formed in the West Midlands
of England around a nucleus of guitarist and songwriter Tony Clarkin and
vocalist Bob Catley, the band dabbled with pomp rock and progressive
sounds in the late 1970s before achieving success in the 1980s with
records like Chase the Dragon, On a Storyteller's Night and their
commercial highpoint, Wings of Heaven. They even had two top thirty
singles in the UK, with 'Start Talking Love' and 'Rockin' Chair'.
The changing musical landscape of the 1990s led to a split, but the
band returned in 2001 and continue to release records of remarkable
consistency while entertaining live audiences across Europe. This
is the first book on the history and music of Magnum. It covers each of
the band's twenty-two studio albums, as well as live recordings,
compilations and the late 1990s Hard Rain project.
Charting the
ups and downs in commercial and artistic achievement, it is an essential
guide to one of Britain's most underappreciated rock bands.
