British hard rock legends Uriah Heep are one of the “big four” rock bands, along with Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and Black Sabbath, and certainly one of the most intriguing bands both musically and lyrically, to emerge from heavy rock.
Evoking an era when prog, hard rock and heavy metal co-existed in an era of glorious, boundary-breaking music, Uriah Heep rose from inexperienced studio musicians with everything to prove to bona fide limo inhabiting rock stars.
After selling over 40 million albums worldwide, over the years Uriah Heep have influenced many different metal bands around the globe, among the most popular being Dio. Bands including A-ha, King Diamond, Krokus, Demons & Wizards, Fifth Angel and Axel Rudi Pell have all cited Uriah Heep as a band of personal influence, while W.A.S.P and Tesla have covered the band’s songs.
As a 14 year old in 1970 I found a love that has lasted a lifetime, that love is for great music, thank you Uriah beep, Peter green,Pink Floyd, marmalade, bad finger and many many more for giving me something to live for …..

I don’t know where I get the feeling that I know them all personally, and they know me. They themselves know how many people they saved from death, from suicide, from insanity?! This is not an exaggeration. May God reward them with His mercy for this.
Daddy, daddy, come and look See what I have found A little ways away from here While digging in the ground Come away, Melinda Come in and close the door It's nothing, just a picture-book They had before the war Daddy, daddy, come and see Daddy, come and look Why there's four or five Little Melinda girls Inside my picture book Come away, Melinda Come in and close the door There were lots of little girls like you Before they had the war Oh daddy, daddy, come and see Daddy, hurry do Why, there's someone in a pretty dress She's all grown up like you Won't you tell me, why? Come away, Melinda Come in and close the door That someone is your mummy You had before the war Daddy, daddy, tell me if you can Why can't things be The way they were Before the war began? Come away, Melinda Come in and close the door The answer lies in yesterday Before they had the war
"And if you ask, then you must know If you still doubt, you should be told It was not we that made it so It was by those who went before And there you sit, tomorrow's child So full of love, so full of life But you must rise to meet the day Lest you become another tale" @ #UriahHeep #Tales #TheMagiciansBirthday
