Re: Uriah Heep
One 0f the best bands around today, I have seen them many times. I even went to see them in London with all the old members on stage with them. That was a very good night, they played all the classics, the latest album is very good, first track is back to the old days!!

Re: Uriah Heep
It was, I used to subscribe to the Heep's web site and went to see them do an acoustic set in London to celebrate 30 years in rock, Ian Anderson cam on stage and presented them with a disc for record sales of Sonic Origami and he played flute for them most of the night, met all the band afterwards for beers. When I saw then with all the members, Thijs van Leer played flute for them, was a very good night.
I did see them in Amsterdam once and also with Stray and Nazareth for £12, now that was good value. Sorry if I make you jealous!!!!

Re: Uriah Heep
I also have been waiting for this thread! I'm not sure where to begin with this exceptional band, as Uriah Heep is both one of my favorite bands and for many years ongoing!
Uriah Heep is a very unique band in numerous, cool ways, imo! Although some of the bands' earlier releases aren't quite as popular as the more widely known albums (i.e. Demons and Wizards, Look at Yourself, Underworld) I believe this band is very versital, more so with the different styles, beats and songwriting featured throughout the bands career! I've enjoyed their music almost from the beginning.
"Gypsy" was the first song that I remember hearing from their first album, which if I remember correctly had one title and artwork for the other parts of the world release and different for the US released edition.
Very 'eavy....Very 'umble
Uriah Heep (US)
Although the band had various personal changes throughout the years, I've felt that each album has been both excellent, solid and also has songs for varying musical tastes, too. With some blues style, slower ballads, somber style songwriting (perhaps not to some peoples liking) and excellent uptempo rocker songs on each album. There were many interesting things, music and combinations ongoing within this band. The early 1970's were great for many bands, Uriah Heep was and continues to be a very interesting, prolific solid band that continues to add great music and performances to this day!
I will be back to this thread both often and as much as possible!

Re: Uriah Heep
I liked them well enough to have two of their albums back when I was in college (Demons and Wizards and The Magician's Birthday), but for some reason I lost interest in them in later years. In fact, I don't listen much to that kind of music any more at all. I guess my tastes have changed over the years. Songs with lyrics like "Sweet Lorraine, let the party carry on" don't exactly speak to me anymore. I'm more of a Nat Cole "Sweet Lorraine" kind of guy now, for better or worse.
If I still had those LPs I'd probably give them a spin again after reading this thread, but I don't, so I can't.

Uriah Heep - great 70's hard rock.
Favorite albums:
Look At Yourself (My Favorite Uriah Heep album)
Demons and Wizards
Very 'eavy...Very 'umble
Uriah Heep have one of the coolest album covers ever. The ''Look At Yourself'' album used to come with a mirror on it, so you can ''Look At Yourself"!
ok, it wasn't an actual mirror, but it was a reflective material, but you get the point.
Look At Yourself
I Wanna Be Free

Re: Uriah Heep
Wow...is that you in here Craig? I know your taste has mellowed over the years but it's good to know you used to enjoy the old Heep back in the day.
Nice to see Rocker440 and GM show up too, we have a good group of fans of this often overlooked band.
