The Alchemist

Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this 1973 Prog-Rock gem including two bonus tracks. The band featured a line up of Mick Stubbs (guitar, piano, lead vocals), Laurie Wise field (lead guitar, vocals), Cliff Williams (bass, vocals) and Mick Cook (drums) and had recorded two previous albums in a more conventional style before recording an album cited by many as a "lost classic" of the Progressive genre. Although critically acclaimed, the album failed to sell in quantities it deserved and Home disbanded the following year. With the addition of guest Jimmy Anderson on Mellotron and synthesizer, the conceptual work also brought the guitar playing of Laurie Wise field to the fore, eventually leading to his joining Wishbone Ash soon after the demise of Home. This edition includes both sides of Home's 1974 single as bonus tracks. 14 tracks. Esoteric. 2010.
