A few more classic albums from the multitude that have become firm favourites of mine ...










Just now looking at the covers makes me want to spin 'em.

 

[Nololob]

^ Massive approval on Uriah Heep!

Looking back at my list it seems I need to update it.

[Jake T]

for Demons and Wizards. I also really like The Magician's Birthday.



Uriah Heep - Sunrise

 

[Aero]

Spandau Ballet - Through the Barricades

Wow...I didn't think I'd ever see anyone on here list a Spandeau record as one of their favorites. I've never had one of my buddies get into my car and say, "Dude, put on some Spandeau Ballet."

Anyway, I used to be a pretty big fan...well, I had their greatest hits record but I liked almost every song on it. However, I now think that most of their old hits like 'Communication', 'Instinction', 'Paint Me Down', and some others now sound really dated. I will say though...after listening to their stuff again recently, the one song that sounds really good now is 'I'll Fly For You.'

I have never heard Through The Barricades so I'll have to go take a listen. I'd be interested in hearing why you think it's a better album than True and Parade.
