This expanded 3CD edition has been newly remastered from the original tapes and includes five bonus tracks and two additional discs featuring live performances recorded on the 'Magic Is A Child' tour at Hofstra University, Long Island and The Community Theater, Phoenix, AZ in October and November 1977 which reveal the power of this incarnation of the band on stage. The clamshell box set includes a booklet with a new essay by Mo Moore. Originally issued in September 1977, 'Magic Is A Child' was recorded in the USA following the departure of Nektar's original guitarist and vocalist Roye Albrighton the previous year. Recruiting new guitarist and vocalist Dave Nelson, Nektar entered the House Of Music studio in New Jersey to record their final album of the 1970s. The sessions saw guest appearances from synthesiser wizard Larry Fast (Synergy, Peter Gabriel) and Robert Fripp (credited under the pseudonym Walt Nektroid). Although a slight change of direction for Nektar to shorter compositions, the album has grown in popularity over the years since it's first release and with the passage of time is more popular than ever among aficionados.
