Mandalaband - Legacy: The Story of Mandalaband 1975 - 1978

The brainchild of David Rohl, who brought in an array of the best musicians at the time including future Sad Cafe members Vic Emerson, Ashley Mulford, John Stimpson, Tony Cresswell and vocalist Dave Durant as well as the entire Barclay James Harvest, Eric Stewart (10cc), Maddy Prior (Steeleye Span), Justin Hayward (Moody Blues), Graham Gouldman, Lol Creme & Kevin Godley (10cc) and Paul Young. Mandalaband received critical acclaim and gained admirers from tastemakers of the day, with legendary BBC radio DJ John Peel a particularly strong supporter, while sophomore The Eye of Wendor: Propheciestold a Tolkienesque fantasy through different vocalists playing the roles of the leading characters in the story.
