Yes this thread brings back golden memories. I saw UH in the convention center in Louisville, KY, USA, in 1972. At that time my brother had Demons and Wizards and I had The Magician's Birthday (on 8-track unfortunately). After the concert I picked up Uriah Heep, and later Look At Yourself, both on LP. I eventually got Salisbury, Sweet Freedom and Wonderworld, all LPs fortunately. Of the choices listed, my vote goes for July Morning. Other fav's include Gypsy ( I damn near wore out the grooves on side A of the Uriah Heep LP), The Wizard, Circle of Hands (swiped Demons and Wizards from brother so frequently it seemed like part of my collection) and the title cut from Wonderword (even though Wonderworld is clearly not as good as earlier works).

Five-smile memories for sure.

The Wizard or July Morning, although  sometimes i prefer Circle of Hands. Of course Paradise/The Spell is great. Easy livin' is a short but sweet masterpiece. Its a tough question that leads me to another question....why is Poet's Justice so overlooked????It has pretty much every Heep trademark in it. Well anyways they're ll great!

One more thing i must address. Although Mr. box didn't have the chops of other guitarists, he had the best wah-wah sound ever and was great at composing simple yet epic solos. Check out the harmonies on Circle of Hands, and the solos in Salisbury(you can actually him turn on the wah-wah) Keep On Trying, and the amazing solos in Time To Live.

Keep on proggin everyone!!!!

I voted for July Morning because Easy Living is like a trademark for Uriah heep. And just imagine if I were to vote for "it's gotta be love..lalala" lol
