I always thought that Uriah Heep influenced early Queen. Try listening to Queen's first 3 albums. That would include quality, fantasy, and similar vocal style.

How about Richie Blackmore's Rainbow and Nazareth? Or maybe something like this...

I'd like to find some bands that sound like Uriah Heep too. I'll check out Rag Y Riggen.

I already checked out Lucifers Friend but then I had to divorce her.

Of course it depends on which era of Uriah Heep you prefer but from the early 70s there is one very obvious band to mention:

In 1969 Deep Purple Mk2 and an unknown band called Spice using the same rehearsal studios in Hanwell Community Centre resulted in two not dissimilar hammond-heavy guitar-driven albums being released the following year - Deep Purple In Rock and Very 'Eavy... Very 'Umble (with Spice having by then changed their name to Uriah Heep).

Black Bonzo, Lucifer's Friend and Arabs In Aspic - all 3 bands remind me of 70's Heep at their best.
