The wings of heaven

"Wings Of Heaven" was released in 1988. The cast was again Bob Catley (vocals), Tony Clarkin (guitars), Wally Lowe (bass), Mark Stanway (keyboards) and Mickey Barker (drums). The style and tone of the predecessor "On A Storyteller`s Night" and "Vigil Duck" was continued, overall, the production but something `polierter`.

Days of no trust: Beautiful melody, beautiful song, typical Magnum.
Wild swan: One of the highlights of the album. Great Hymn and very bombastic.
Start talking love: nice, a little too pop.
One Step Away: Quiet start, then harder. Good song.
It Must Have Been Love: Nice ballad, a bit too pop.
Different Worlds: A pop song, not one of the highlights.
Pray for the day: The same applies here as with `Different worlds`.
Don`t wake the lion: T he song on the album, even before `Wild swan`. Incredibly epic and anthemic. The play increases gradually huge and is 10 1/2 minutes.

"Wings Of Heaven" is a good album. But it's a bit too slick produced by the same producers and several mixers. The two predecessors were better off, so 4 stars for the present piece of Melodic Hard Rock.
