At the end..."The fear left as quickly as it came. The air grew clear, the fire burned again. The flames leapt, the organ played, the swan sang to greet the day. And then we knew that love will find love." Good won.

Thank you for reacting to Uriah Heep (U-RYE-A HEAP). Heep was one of the original "Four Pillars Of Heavy Metal" along with Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, and Led Zepplen. Many consider them the Father of Progressive Metal. Much of their music was constructed with a symphonic structure. The lead singer at this time was David Byron, the main writer and keyboardist was Ken Hensley, the drummer was Lee Kerslake, the Bassist was Gary Thain, and the sole surviving member was the guitarist Mick Box. They are still touring and recording new music 51 years after recording their first album, Others to listen to are July Morning, Lady in Black, Stealin', the list goes on and on.

I love the Heep. Grandfather of Prog is a bit of a stretch. The Beatles definitely opened the door to the amazing progression of Rock n Roll and King Crimson were formed in 1968 releasing their first album in 1969. To not acknowledge King Crimson is odd. I'm not trying to be an asshole, although it does come naturally. I co-founded a progrock band, so I'm quite certain I'm not just making stuff up. I've been a musician since 1966.

@@mrnobody3161 You're not being an asshole, I was quoting a couple of critics (probably the closest of us to assholes) that I have read in metal oriented articles. They might have been thinking Prog-Metal, but I did imply they are considered in some peoples' opinions. I dislike labels but fall into using them as descriptors and shouldn't as the can mislead as much as lead.

Adventurous first Uriah Heep selection. The typical first listen is their one US top 30 "Easy Living". The 2nd choice would be "Stealin'". Very big arena band in the US between 1972-76. I saw them 5 times back then and always great drama on stage in their prime. Good won. The final vocal line is "love will find love will find love.....etc".

Their songs blend & morph. Incredible how the band members created sooo many albums. They can NOT be copied & their music inspires & motivates. I crank up this album as I drive & well, they are a TRIP!

This track is from thier Demons and Wizards album which I consider Uriah Heep's best work outside of the Sweet Freedom album. I chose this track for Harri to give him a real feel to what the band was all about. The guitarist narrating the battle was Mick Box, and I consider him in the top 5 of the greats! Harri the band got it's name from a Charles Dickens character, a miserly type like Ebenezer Scrooge. Glad you enjoyed the track, and more to come in my requests. Thanks for the reaction, and stay cool my friend.

This was one of the top 70's bands, very popular in Euriope too Harri, Mick Box had some tasty licks and the keyboards always featured srongly. 'The Wizard' from their album before this was one of my faves. Always one of the best and popular live bands too. Losing Gary Thain was tragic, he was a fine bassist and David Byron a great showman who couldn't ditch the booze sadly. Drummer Lee Kerslake never got credit for song-writing later when helping Ozzy Ozbourne in his solo career with his later wife Sharon said to have been protective of royalties. An underrated talent.
