About Wings of Heaven

Wings of Heaven is the seventh studio album by the English rock band Magnum, released in 1988. The original choice of producers for Wings of Heaven was Roger Taylor and Dave Richards, who had produced Vigilante. This was not realised because of conflicting schedules. Albert Boekholt was suggested at Wisseloord Studios, the Netherlands. The album was mixed at Sarm West Studios in London in January 1988. One song was announced, "That's How The Blues Must Start", but was dropped from the album. Wings of Heaven was their first studio album to gain both critical and commercial success and the first to achieve a top 10 placing, which it did in Sweden #2, the UK #5, Switzerland #7 and Norway #8. It also made the Top 20 in Germany hitting #19. . The album is certified Silver in the United Kingdom, meaning it has shipped over 60,000 copies. In November 2007, Magnum toured the UK celebrating the 20th anniversary of the album. These shows were recorded for the Wings of Heaven Live album in 2008. The entire album was played live including the song "Different Worlds", never performed by the band on the original Wings of Heaven tour in 1988
