This is the first studio album from Gandalf since bad diagnosis in 1983. Gandalf was a flawless and timeless record. Not surprising from Gandalf and Magic Theatre together. Magic Theatre isn’t so much a record, as a great effort at dragging you into another world. Unappreciated gift to New Age
This is one of those tracks that should not be judged after the first hearing. It’s very catchy and easy to get into which is what you want in a song. After few listenings I started to like 3rd door/Loss of identity in the labyrinth of delusions more and more. 4th door/The magic mirror is nothing short of a modern masterpiece. This song is dynamic and dramatic. 6th door/Peace of mind - For me, this is the best of the album. Song 7th door/The fountain of real joy is actually a funny song. Exit is exquisite work of Gandalf.
