The Magician's Birthday is the fifth album released by British rock band Uriah Heep. The storyline
is "based loosely on a short story" written by Ken Hensley in June and July 1972.

The original vinyl release was a gatefold sleeve, the front of which was designed by Roger Dean.
The innerfold had pictures of the band, with the LP itself housed in a liner on which were printed
the lyrics.

Two songs charted in the United States, "Blind Eye" (#97) and "Sweet Lorraine" (#91). "Spider Woman"
reached #13 in Germany.

The Magician's Birthday was certified Gold by the RIAA on 22 January 1973.
