2004 remastered reissue of 1977 album features eight tracks & includes original artwork with updated sleeve notes. The second Pat Travers album MAKIN' MAGIC is, to many, the best of the man's early albums. It's easy to see why people feel this way. It's a harder rocking release than the debut album - witness the thunderous title track and the classic Rock N' Roll Susie. The album is also memorable for the appearance of one Nicko McBrain on drums alongside long time bassist Pete ''Mars'' Cowling. The album's highlight is, though, perhaps Pat's heartfelt message to his own brother ''Stevie''. MAKIN' MAGIC is where the Pat Travers story really starts.
PERSONNEL: Nicko McBrain, Roy Dyke - drums; Patrick Henry Travers - guitar, keyboards, vocals; Pete “Mars” Cowling - bass; Peter Solley - ARP synthesizer, farfisa organ, fender rhodes, piano; Glenn Hughes - vocals; Brian Robertson - guitar, drums.
The project's second album, 1977's MAKIN' MAGIC, is a clone of his debut and contemporary Thin Lizzy (dual harmonized guitars). MAKIN' MAGIC is the second album from Pat Travers in 1977 when this was released. It’s notable for featuring a young Nicko McBrain who would go on to join Iron Maiden a few years later. Travers had introduced his funky hard rock style on his eponymous debut but here he really establishes it from the off with the driving title track. He shows what a great guitar player he is and McBrain drives things along with tight but loose drumming. Of special mention is Mars Cowling’s busy and to the front bass work was integral to the Travers sound. ''Rock ‘N’ Roll Suzie'' is pretty much what you’d expect from the title, Rock ‘N’ Roll being something Travers dipped into from time to time. ''You Don’t Love Me'' was the first Travers song which featured on a Sounds Magazine freebie album. It’s not one of the best tracks here though being a somewhat ordinary rocker. ''Stevie'' is a ballad and would become a live favourite. On his debut Travers had overdone the cover versions with four in total. Here there’s only one and it’s well chosen - the Blues classic ''Statesboro Blues''. Perhaps the definitive version of this song was made by The Allman Brothers Band but Travers does it justice with a pacey and lively version making it a very worthy inclusion. ''Need Love'' is excellent – an understated piece of syncopated funk rock. ''Hooked On Music'' is a Travers classic – more funk and perhaps the best song here and a quick listen will say all you need to know why it was a live staple and often opened his set. The album closes with ''What You Mean To Me'', an instrumental with Travers tasteful guitar work augmented by fender rhodes piano, a keyboard enjoyed the sound of but overall its less than essential though pleasant enough. To this day MAKIN' MAGIC remains one of best Pat Travers albums, only equalled by Heat In The Street which may just have the edge. This would make a great place to start exploring his extensive back catalogue for sure.
