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]}

The Alchemist (с англ. — «Алхимик») — третий студийный альбом британской рок-группы Home, выпущенный в июле 1973 года на лейбле CBS Records. После распада группы в 1974 году Клифф Уильямс присоединился к Bandit с 1975 по 1977 год, прежде чем он заменил Марка Эванса в австралийской хард-рок-группе AC/DC. Гитарист Лори Уайзфилд добился успеха в британской группе Wishbone Ash с 1974 по 1985 год, барабанщик Мик Кук позже недолговечно был в группе The Groundhogs. На пластинке также играл Джимми Андерсон на клавишных. Хотя альбом был любим критиками, в коммерческом плане он продавался плохо.
