FIREFLY

With the recording of Firefly,Uriah Heep enter a new era with John Lawton as vocalist,the first album without David Byron.And I think this album is the best without David Byron on vocals,until the releasing of Wake the Sleeper in 2008!Firefly contains the classic Uriah Heep sound,but with some new rock & roll elements added by John Lawton.He is more oriented to that kind of music.The album mixes some progressive/hard rock songs fron the previous era of the band like - The Hanging Tree,Been Away Too Long,the famous one Wise Man,the magnificent song Firefly.But it is full of light rock & roll songs like Who Needs Me,Do You Know,Rollin On and the cult one - Sympathy.The mixture between two kind of songs is well enough for every high quality collection!
