Wake The Sleeper

by: Uriah Heep

Release Date June 09, 2008
Head First was the last Heep album I bought. Not paid any attention to them since then, but reading reviews here at Amazon, I took the plunge and bought Awake The Sleeper.

Good job I took the advice on offer, because this is a good, solid listen and so nearly a 5 star effort.

Good mixture of new and old sounds here, with that great Heep-unique organ accompanying songs throughout. It rocks from start to finish, but a special mention for What Kind of God, which is classic Heep to these ears.

Lads, don't think about drawing your pensions yet : there's obviously life in you all still!

Demons And Wizards

by: Uriah Heep

Release Date February 26, 2008
Every Uriah Heep fan will tell you that this is the groups best at the time of release album. everything slotted together perfectly. a stable line up, great writing plenty of rehearsal before recording and a sense of well being.. the remaster has a fantastic selection of out-takes that other top groups would have begged stole bought rather than gathering dust in some vault..

Very 'Eavy Very 'Umble

by: Uriah Heep

Release Date February 26, 2008
First saw Uriah Heep in the early seventies on the Students' Union circuit when they were promoting this album. Great night, it was. Obviously, I still have the vinyl in pristine condition, but will be getting the cd version to protect the original classic.
To my mind, Mick Box is an outstanding guitarist, who can hold his own in any company, past or present.
So do yourself a favour, and buy it. You won't regret it.

Wonderworld

by: Uriah Heep

Release Date February 26, 2008
I really like this album, it's a natural successor to the brilliant 'Sweet Freedom' which was a hard act to follow but I think that it does it very well.
Just how I like it.. nice and heavy with lots of special moments not least with the title track which is one of my favourite Heep tunes, a great melody which sticks in your mind and I often find myself humming it for no reason at all. 'Suicidal Man', 'So Tired', 'Something or Nothing' and 'We got We' are all great rockers, well played and produced but (agreeing with the previous reviewer) the star of the show has to be 'I Won't Mind' - a fabulous track full of Heep delights like slide guitar, heavy wah wah solo and some great singing from David Byron.
Gary Thain's bass playing really stands ... Read More:

Live 1973

by: Uriah Heep

Release Date February 26, 2008
I bought this album in 1975 when I was at school and loved it and still do.The atmosphere of a live rock concert is captured perfectly complete with guitar and synthesizer tuning, the odd bum note, "chewing gum being stuck on the boot" of the late David Byron and songs which feature the Moog "simplifier" and Organ (?) Brilliant! All the tracks are excellent and indeed some like "July Morning" "Sweet Lorraine" and "Traveller in time" sounding far better than the original rather 'Lack Lustre' studio versions. "Gypsy" is superb with both synth and drum solo's. A real Must-Have album for any fan of 70's rock. "it's going out live tonight so make a lot of noise won't you"! Fantastic.. Play it LOUD!!!

Innocent Victim

by: Uriah Heep

Release Date February 26, 2008
This was the second of three studio albums from Heep with John Lawton fronting the band after the dismisal of former founder member and vocalist David Byron and to be honest, it's difficult to know what to say about this. Compared to Heep's finest albums (Demons and Wizards, 'Sweet freedom' and the latest 'Wake The Sleeper') I think that it's fair to say that it's pretty poor.
However, there are a couple of good tracks here.. 'Free and Easy' hits the spot as a good rocker in the traditional Heep style and I quite like 'The Dance' as a well produced tune ( I've given three stars just for these) but as for the rest.. well it's all a bit lightweight and forgettable really. It's held together well by the tight production and some good strong singing and ... Read More:

Fallen Angel

by: Uriah Heep

Release Date February 26, 2008
As an almost life long fan of Uriah heep, I think that (to be as fair as possible) it's best to review this album track by track. So here goes:-
1. Woman of the Night - Not bad .. can hear some distinct 'Uriah' influence here, rocks along Ok.
2.Falling in Love - Great Song (if you liked the Bay City Rollers!]
3. One More Night - Shakin' Stevens would have been proud of this (is that him doin' the singin'?).
4. Put your Lovin on Me - with the Brilliant Chorus Line 'I Love You'.. about as original as a good fart in the morning.
5. Come Back To me - Sorry Lee , I think you're a great chap but..... AAAARGH!!
6. What d'ya Say - Hello, Ken's got some new toys.. better put them back in the box and go back to sleep..!
7. Save ... Read More:

Head First

by: Uriah Heep

Release Date February 26, 2008
I tried this cd on three different steroes and tried all the settings and the result was the same. Awful. Maybe, just maybe I got a dud. Don't get me wrong, I like the album and have done since its release but this mix is terrible. I had the stereo in my car up to 30 before I could hear the intro to Roll Away The Rock. Four and a half stars for the songs (I know they are good cos I played my old vinyl and that has a much better sound than this cd) but one star for the crappy mix on this release.
