The album is his first for the Loog label and was written, produced and arranged by Wolf. 'The Magic Position' was recorded in both Vienna and London.
The release of 'Bluebells' – which is also featured on 'The Magic Position' – comes immediately after Wolf's special one-off show at London's Union Chapel in Islington on Tuesday 19th December.
'The Magic Position' follows the enormous critical success of Wolf's two previous albums, his 2003 debut 'Lycanthropy' and 2005's 'Wind in the Wires', both of which were released on independent labels.document.write(unescape("
