The Alchemist is the third and final album by British rock band Home, released in 1973 on the CBS Records label. After the group disbanded in 1974, Cliff Williams went on to join Bandit from 1975 to 1977 before he replaced Mark Evans in Australian hard rock band AC/DC. Guitarist Laurie Wisefield went on to achieve success with the British band Wishbone Ash from 1974 to 1985. The record also featured Jimmy Anderson on keyboards. Though the album was loved by the critics, it did not sell well commercially.[citation needed]
