5 stars In my opinion the early URIAH HEEP made progressive rock. They had not the complexity like YES, the skills like GENTLE GIANT, the refined attitude like GENESIS (70-77-era) or the virtuosity like ELP. URIAH HEEP's music is a simple but tasteful progressive blend of blues, rock and some jazz. The strong point in their music is the powerful interplay between the fiery guitar and swirling Hammond organ, the variety and power of their compositions and the enthousiastic approach, this band delivers music that makes you feel better! The 2- LP "Uriah Heep Live" is one of my most played records: if I need a boost or when I want to sublimated my frustrations, "Uriah Heep Live" is there to help me, thanks gentlemen! By the way, two years ago I finally could see them live and was allowed back-stage to ask Mick Box some questions for a Dutch progrock magazine. I asked how it felt to play "Easy livin'" so many times. He replied: "When I look at all those happy faces in the crowd, I can keep on playing forever". These guys should get a statue!!
