Free Music Notes for Classic Heep: An Anthology

Free Music Review: The true highlights of the peak years
Hit: 5 Stars

This double CD set has all of the important classics. While I was surprised that it only contained two selections from Sweet Freedom, it has nearly every song from their peak commercial and creative album, Demons and Wizards, plus the song "Why" which was never on an album, but was from this same era. A very good showcase of the David Byron years, which are what most people associate the group and sound with. Having the full 10+ minutes of The Magician's Birthday and the songs in chronological order, along with an insightful booklet, make this the Uriah Heep collection to own short of having all of the complete CDs.

Classic Heep: An Anthology Poster

The missing link between Deep Purple and Queen, '70s Britrockers Uriah Heep had it all: epic rock anthems, quasi-operatic vocals, and gothic ax 'n' organ grooves that could send Quasimodo into paroxysms of air guitar. This 30-song collection mixes infectious frat-rockers such as "Easy Livin'" and "Sweet Lorraine" with attenuated anthems featuring more demons and wizards than you can shake a scepter at ("Magician's Birthday," "Rainbow Demon," "High Priestess," "The Wizard," "Paradise/The Spell" ... you get the idea). Heavy with just the right amount of histrionics, our Heep could even swing into ballad mode, albeit with mixed results: "Rain," penned by keyboardist Ken Hensley, is surprisingly gorgeous, whereas an early cover of the Weavers' "Come Away Melinda" is a bit overwrought. A band whose reach could exceed their grasp, Uriah Heep was the product of a less cynical and calculated time whose innocence and inspirations are well served by this anthology. --Billy Grenier
