Magic Is a Child
Magic Is A Child is the seventh album from English progressive rock band Nektar. This album is one of only two studio albums released by Nektar without Roye Albrighton on guitar and lead vocals; the other is The Other Side (2020). In addition, founding member Mick Brockett was no longer credited as a member of Nektar, only as one of their four stage and lighting designers. Dave Nelson took Albrighton's place on guitar, while lead vocal duties were now divided among drummer Ron Howden, bassist Mo Moore, and Nelson.
Brooke Shields, 12 years old at the time, is the model on the cover.
The track "Train from Nowhere", on the 2005 remastered edition, features Robert Fripp of King Crimson on lead guitar (under the pseudonym “Walt Nektroid") that was left out of the original version.[citation needed]
AllMusic gave the album a positive retrospective review, praising Nektar's switching to "shorter, punchier songs", "swelling" keyboards, "symphonic" guitars, and "breezy pop".
