Synopsis

Magic Lanterns - 'Shame Shame' (BR Music)
Mike Reed | USA | 10/29/2004
(3 out of 5 stars)

"Of all the various sources that I've been informed that this was Ozzy's pre-Sabbath band,I've heard it DIRECT from a rep. at the label,BR Music that Ozzy was never with the Lanterns.The Magic Lanterns existed only from 1968-71 and put out three decent lp's that combined elements of soul and innocent-sounding pop.The Manchester,UK band managed to score a decently received hit,"Shame Shame",but the tune really isn't their best,by any means.With a total of twenty-four tracks,the ones that I dug the most were "Another Place Another Time","Frisco Annie",the soulful "Let The Sunshine In","Carolina Brown","Country Woman","Never Gonna Trust My Heart Again" and their should've-been-a-hit "Highway Dreams".The disc gets better as it progresses.Two similar classic lp's:Beach Boys-'Today' and the Buckinghams-'Kind Of A Drag'."
