Mandalaband began life in the early 1970s, gaining cult status as one of the most forward-thinking prog outfits of the time. The brainchild of David Rohl, who brought in an array of the best musicians at the time including future Sad Café members Vic Emerson, Ashley Mulford, John Stimpson, Tony Cresswell, and vocalist Dave Durant as well as the entire Barclay James Harvest, Eric Stewart (10cc), Maddy Prior (Steeleye Span), Justin Hayward (Moody Blues), Graham Gouldman, Lol Creme & Kevin Godley (10cc) and Paul Young.
Their debut album "Mandalaband" received critical acclaim and gained admirers from tastemakers of the day, with legendary BBC radio DJ John Peel a particularly strong supporter, while sophomore "The Eye of Wendor: Prophecies" told a Tolkienesque fantasy through different vocalists playing the roles of the leading characters in the story. "Legacy: The Story Of Mandalaband" features the original as well as the newly remixed versions of both the albums along with many rarities from the archives.
