Manfred Mann’s Earth Band – Solar Fire: Though not as pagan as the most erotically fiery pagan music in my collection, this rather safe exploration of ritual, mystical themes does what it sets out to do. The first track is the real killer here, drawing me into epic themes the band is about explore. This album veers more toward the hard side, rather than the playful side, of prog rock.
