I've just started getting into Uriah heep. Have listen to Deamons and wizards through several times. I want to buy a few more albums from E bay, any good suggestions???
i love uriah heep. they had a concert in my country a couple of days ago. and i didnt go. *kills herself*
Their first album.............. Very ‘eavy ... Very ‘umble is their fuckin best and one of the best of 1970. Bought it back then cause of that cobweb cover and was sure glad i did.
Most round here don't appear to be interested in music discussions. They're more into drama/ their own lil peyton places... *g* Myself? Have a soft spot for the British...
I like a few of their songs...Stealin,easy livin',the intro to july morning(i think thats the song)...
Oh the problem with Uriah Heep is that you've got never enough good songs to make a good album... 90 % of their discography don't had much interest... 1, 2 or 3 good songs ...don't make a good album I've recently buy Conquest(80) & Sweet Freedom(late73) with his beautiful cover...but both were deceptions... i've not heard all their albums but if you want good Uriah heep tried maybe (more or less by order of quality) - "Demons & Wizzard" (72) is probably their pick, nearly a classic album. - Recently "Look at yourself" (71) surprised me...and this is probably one of their 3 best record ever... - Then "Very Heavy very humble" & "Salisbury" (69 & 70) are quite interesting And 2 finish i never heard "The Magician Birthday"(73) but it's often considered has one of their best album.... probably their last interesting album... Then the band will slowly loose his way ...the lack of musical vision & originality ...with members addict on opposite drugs...can maybe explain the decline of those prog monsters Oh i forgot their last "not-so-shit" album is maybe their comeback "Abominog" (82 maybe the last respectable hard rock year)...i never heard it but it's a reaction to the fresh new wave of hard rock bands of the late 70's-early 80's ...and some said that it was their last tiny return to form...
