My most played album #1080. Uriah Heep - Head First. The 15th studio album released in 1983. In the 70’s Uriah Heep was a fantasy standard rock band but in the 80’s they turned into a great hard rock band. An amazing band Bob Daisley and Lee Kerslake from Ozzy’s Osbourne band, John Sinclair from “The Baby’s”, Mick Box the only original member of 52 years with the band and Singer Peter Goalby sounds great. This record sounds more like Ozzy than Uriah Heep. It's a great record! Lots of great songs; "The Other Side of Midnight", "Stay on Top", "Lonely Nights" and "Red Lights". Peaked at #19 in Norway!

찰스 디킨스의 소설 '데이비드 커퍼필드'의 등장인물 이름에서 유래한 Uriah Heep은 Hard Rock 양식에 Art Rock 성분을 주입하여 록 마니아들로부터 사랑을 받아왔다. 그들의 명반은 주로 초기 작품들에 몰려있는데, 본작 The Magician's Birthday은 그 중에서도 명작 중의 명작에 속한다. 앨범은 Ken Hensle... Read More

유라이어 힙을 처음알게된것은(지금도 잘 모르지만...) 감마레이가 리마스터 앨범을 발매하며 보너스 트랙으로 넣은곡이 이 앨범의 Look at Yourself였기 때문이다. 익살스러운 곡이 감마레이와 참 어울렸다고 생각했는데 어느샌가 세월이 흘러 이 앨범 저 앨범 찾아보다 유라이어 힙의 음반이... Read More

70년대 전성기 Uriah Heep 의 가장 큰 음악적 특징이라면 애수어린 아름다운 멜로디와 켄헨슬리의 현란한 키보드 플레이라고 할수있다. 이들의 대표작 July Morning 이나 Gypsy 가 이를 잘 웅변하고 있다. 이를 보면 이들이 동시대 딮퍼플이나 레드제플린과는 사뭇 다른 음악적 방향을 추구한다는것... Read More

July Morning 한 곡만으로도 유라이어 힙은 소명을 다했다고 할 수 있다. David Byron의 애수 어린 목소리와 Mick Box가 솔로잉을 현란하게 펼치는 이 곡은 장엄하고도 비극적이며 또한 화려하다. 마치 Deep Purple류의 건반 주도의 브리티시 하드락의 노선을 충실히 계승하는 것으로 타이틀곡 Look at Yo... Read More
