Κάτι “uncool” από τα ’70s… Δεν είμαι μεγάλος φαν των Uriah Heep, αλλά λατρεύω κάποια τραγούδια τους, όπως αυτό. Τραγουδιστής – αντικαταστάτης του David Byron, ο φοβερός και τρομερός John Lawton, πρώην Lucifer’s Friend. Το άλμπουμ θα ήταν η τρίτη και τελευταία ηχογράφηση που έκανε μαζί τους Heep, δίνοντάς τους μια πιο straight-forward, χωρίς progressive-ισμούς κατεύθυνση.
Something “uncool” from the ’70s… I’m not a big fan of Uriah Heep, but I love some of their songs, like this one. The singer, David Byron’s replacement, is the amazing John Lawton, ex – Lucifer’s Friend. The album would be the third and final recording he made with Heep, giving them a more straight-forward, progressive-free direction.

Never was a fan, either, but this song is pretty good. Perhaps the only one I can think of.
Of course I couldn’t stand Aerosmith, back in the day, now I ADORE them. A second listen can be worthwhile.
There are some others too, including exceptional songs like ‘Stealin” or ‘July Morning’.
I just never thought they deserved the success they had, being something like “pure man’s Purple”. Thanks!
Another song that’s been a long time since I heard it. John Lawton is amazing. I never paid much attention the Uriah Heep, but I have to agree they had some really good songs. I’m opposite Resa. I loved Aerosmith back in the day. Now they’re “meh!” I can leave them more than take them these days. It’s good to go back and give classic groups another listen. Taste change and you mature. I do have to say that I still love Black sabbath and Pink Floyd.
Me too.
