Since The Mid 90's Nick Has Released A String Of Superbly Crafted Solo Albums, One Of Which Is 'Inhaling Green'. Originally Issued In 1999, This Timeless Masterpiece Was Nick's Second Album And It Has Now Been Given A Long Overdue And Thoroughly Well Deserved Makeover. Virtually 100% Instrumental, This Album Takes The Listener On A Course Across A Wide Musical Spectrum.

Musically, 'Inhaling Green' Will Appeal To Fans Of Artists Like: STEVE HACKETT Or VANGELIS And Bands Such As GENESIS, YES, KING CRIMSON & The MOODY BLUES - It's Classy, Heartfelt Music From A Multi-Talented Keyboards Craftsman With An Incredible Skill For Both Arranging And Production!This Is Inspired Instrumental Synth And Symphonic Prog-Rock Music All Rolled Up Into One Epic Film Theme Styled Album That Is As Wide Ranging In It's Scope As It Is In It's Variation - One Of THE Finest Keyboard Based Albums You'll Have The Pleasure Of Listening To... That's Why It Warrants This Re-Issue.'Inhaling Green' Has All The Great Instrumental Elements You Could Wish For In An Album Of This Type, And Much More Besides - Often It Is Neo-Classical Symphonic With Grandiose Majestic Themes Multi-Layered In Lavish Keyboard Flourishes. There's A Commercial Edge To The Catchy, Tune-Laden Rhythmic Cut: 'Cantus', Covering An Area Once Occupied By ENIGMA, Then Enters Rock Territory With Magnus's Anthemic Cover Of George Martin's 'Theme One', A Massive Sounding Late 60's Track Made Famous By VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR - Magnus Makes This His Own With Some Very Special Touches! The Keyboard Sounds Come In Many Guises - Mellotron, Moog, Hammond Organ, Piano, String-Synth And More, But The Album Also Boasts Some Of The Finest Melodic Soaring Electric Guitar Work Around, Courtesy Of Geoff Whitehorn (CRAWLER / RAINBOW / PROCOL HARUM)! There's Also Some Beautifully Tasteful Flute Parts Courtesy Of Steve Hackett's Brother John And As Tight A Rhythm Section As You'll Get, Which Is Amazingly All Coming Courtesy Of Nick Magnus Himself!
