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!
