They've influenced a number of other bands, but their contribution to the evolution of the genre is in general underrated. Just one example: the first two Eloy's albums are full of Uriah Heep IMO
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Byron was a great singer and Thain a wonderful bass player.
And so are successors like Lawton, Goalby, Wetton and Bolder.
Slowman wasn't bad on Conquest, With Gary Moore on the Rockin' every night(live inJapan)record, his voice is getting worse.
Hensley/Box/Kerslake are good musicians.
The best album is Look at yourself. Some great songs are: Pilgrim, The dance, Tales, Come away Melinda, The park, Cross that line, Free'n'easy, Red lights, Weep in silence and some more. All my life is their most wretched song.
