Cosmic Wheels (album) : ウィキペディア英語版
Cosmic Wheels


''Cosmic Wheels'' is the tenth studio album, and eleventh album overall, from British singer-songwriter Donovan. It was released in both the UK (Epic SEPC 65450) and the US (Epic KE 32156) in March 1973.
== History ==
After the introspection of fatherhood and family life contained in the songs of ''H.M.S. Donovan'', Donovan turned his attention to popular music again in 1972. It had been three years since "Atlantis" entered the top 10. Since that time, Donovan had released a mildly successful album with band Open Road and a solo children's album that failed to make the charts in the UK and did not even see a release in the US.
In hopes of fomenting success, Donovan brought in Mickie Most to share the producer duties on his next album. The ''Cosmic Wheels'' sessions were recorded in Morgan Studios in London, England. In the UK at that time, glam rock ruled the top of the charts, defined by bands and artists such as T. Rex, Alice Cooper, and David Bowie among others. Several of these bands and artists claimed Donovan as a key influence in their music. This praise coupled with the chart success of the genre likely had great influence on the musical direction ''Cosmic Wheels'' would take.
While Donovan was recording ''Cosmic Wheels'', Alice Cooper was recording their 1973 album ''Billion Dollar Babies'' in the same studio. Alice Cooper guitarist Michael Bruce suggested asking Donovan to sing co-lead on the title track with Alice Cooper himself. Donovan agreed, and the resulting song helped propel ''Billion Dollar Babies'' to #1 in the US.
''Cosmic Wheels'' reached the top 20 in both the US and UK, enjoying the same chart success as many of Donovan's previous albums. By 1973 the music business had shifted to promoting album-oriented rock, relegating singles to less promotion and fewer sales. An edited form of "I Like You" reached #66 in the U.S. and became the last charting single Donovan would have.
