Tough choice. I voted for Uriah Heep in the end, one of my all time favourite bands. I like Thin Lizzy a lot but I haven't listened to all their albums yet. But fortunately time is on my side...

Almost any band is better than Heep. So Lizzy, no contest.

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

Yeah Heep for me too. Ivan sums up exactly why I love the band so much. However, I love 'Firefly' and 'Sea Of Light' as much as the earlier albums.

I think it doesn't matter what Thin Lizzy is, anyway they were a Great Band of Hard Rock of all times!!

I prefer Uriah Heep, but I must admit that I don't have much knowledge about Thin Lizzy. I have only an anthology ("Dedication", which is fantastic) and their magnum opus ("Live and Dangerous", simply one of the greatest live albums of all time).

Both are not prog, but Thin Lizzy are so much better - love that band, which I can't say about UH.
